This is something peculiar to do sheetmetal form over the flushed hem. Curiously i tried after checking this post, the result which i got shown below.
The form takes onlyone thickness. You can see the surface which is shown as red is a flushed hem, if i place the form on the flushed hem it piercing out from the other wall. For comparison i put the form on the pink surface. I dont know the reason why the form is not taking place over the flushed hem.
But practically we can do form over the flushed hem by means of hand press/ pneumatic/hydraulic press.
Anyone have tried this before... curious to know..
Thanks for having a look.
I realise that this not an usual requirement but I do actually need this forming to retain a wire in a crimp and the form help with retaining it in place.
I have since change the way to do and created a hem as a sweep wall and it works perfectly.
Technically it does not reflect the way you would do it when manufacture it but it shows it as a finish product
