This formula however only applies to 90 dies. When determining your minimum flange for acute angle dies you will use a more complicated trigonometric formula. This formula uses the V Opening (V) and the Die Angle (DA) as well as the trigonometric functions, tan and sin to find the Minimum Flange (b).
V Opening (v)
The relationship between the v opening and the required tonnage is straight forward, the larger the v opening the less tonnage is required to bend the metal. The relationship is inversely proportional so if the v opening is doubled the tonnage will be halved. This idea should make sense as the larger the v opening the more leverage the punch has over the sheet metal. It should be noted that as the v opening is increased both the bend radius and the minimum flange length increase. Both of these are important design elements which are not to be over looked. It is common for an engineer to have to specify which v opening is used in order to ensure that a bend can be completed, or that a desired radius is achieved. As you can see below the relationship between the inside radius and the v opening occurs because the sheet metal has more room to bend. I dont know of a formula for the relationship between the v opening and the inside radius, but then again this is why bend force charts are created, to help you fill in the blanks.
