When the angle steel is deformed, how to correct it

When the angle steel is deformed, twisted and bent, how should we correct it?

1: The small angle steel can be corrected by wrench torsion; the larger angle steel can be placed on the edge of the platform and hit the flange edge of the angle steel in the reverse twisting direction with a hammer;

Two: the correction method of angle steel deformation, there are usually two ways of angle steel deformation:

1. Open the ruler, that is, when the angle between the two wings of the angle steel is greater than 90 degrees, one of the wings of this part can be placed at 45 degrees to the platform, and the upper flange can be hammered. When correcting, it is necessary to pay attention to the correct hammering, and the falling hammer is stable, otherwise the angle steel is prone to torsion;

2. Gather the ruler, that is, when the angle between  the two wings of the angle steel is less than 90 degrees, the edges of the two wings of the angle steel can be placed on the platform to hammer the ridge line of the ruler, or the ridge of the angle steel can be placed on the platform. Put the flat hammer in it, and then hit the flat hammer to split the angle to a right angle.

Three: Correction of bending:

1. To correct the outer bending of the angle steel, place the recess on the steel ring or on the platform, and hammer the convex part of the flange. When hammering, the angle should be placed according to the direction of the angle steel, and the hammer handle should be raised or lowered for hammering. Anti-angle steel overturning and accident at work;

2. Angle steel bending is very common in angle steel correction, and angle steel bending has internal deformation, external bending, etc.;

3. To expand the concave surface, the concave surface can be placed flat on the platform, and the hammering point can be expanded from the inside to the outside by hammering the concave part while increasing the hammering force, so that the concave surface fibers can be stretched to straighten the angle steel;

4. There are methods such as hammering the convex part and expanding the concave surface for the correction of the inner bending of the angle steel. Hammer the convex part and place the concave part of the angle steel to be corrected on the platform. To prevent springback, two steel plates can be placed under the angle steel as fulcrums. Hold the letter angle steel outside the platform by hand and make the convex part of the angle steel face vertically upwards. The position of the hitting point should be at the convex part of the middle of the two fulcrums for hammering.

The above is the explanation of the processing methods according to different methods after the steel is deformed. I hope it will be helpful to everyone. If you want to know more exciting information, please pay attention to our official website!
