What is the K-factor?

The K-factor is the bending coefficient that is used to calculate the addition of material when spreading the sheet. It is difficult to say a general figure as it differs between different materials and thicknesses and the radius to be bent. There are usually built-in parameters in the CAD programmes for this, which unfortunately can vary from programme to programme.

You don't have to worry about getting errors during production with us, as we go through this during programming and make sure it is correct.
