Why is metal curved folding better than folding over straight lines?
Curved folding is a technique that allows for the creation of complex shapes and forms from sheet metal. One advantage of using curved folding is that it allows for the creation of strong, lightweight structure.
Because the metal is folded and bent into shape rather than being cut and welded, the resulting structures can be very sturdy and resilient. In addition, curved folding can be used to create structures that have a unique design and are aesthetically pleasing.
Another advantage of curve folding is that it can be performed relatively quickly and easily, compared to other techniques for shaping metal.
