System and method for bending a hollow core sheet using rods

摘要

A system and method for bending a hollow core sheet using rods has at least one bendable rod that is inserted inside a channel of a hollow core sheet so as to strengthen it and increase its malleability, which offers the possibility of pliancy to the hollow core sheet so that it can hold a shape. The reinforcing bendable rod is held in place via an applied angled force inside the walls of the channels. The hollow core sheet is then bent into a desired shape to create useful objects.

1. A system for bending a hollow core sheet using at least one rod wherein the at least one rod is inserted inside a channel forming an integral part of the hollow core sheet; said at least one rod having a maximum breadth of 75% of the internal breadth of the channel it is inserted in when making a rounded edge bend; and a minimum of 50% of the hollow sheet it is inserted in when doing a sharp edge bend.
