K-Factor

The all-determining factor

At OutShape we work in the background with a standard K-Factor for the materials in our database in order to calculate the bending loss of the sheet deflection.

We work with the following standard factors:

Steel 0.65
Alu 0.85
Stainless steel 0.122

It is also possible to replace this default value with your own K-factor so that the plate deflection can be made entirely according to your wishes and machines.
