Deep channel may need special tooling

Sheet metal

Scope and limits

Informational: deep two-bend channel (flange more than half the channel width) that may need gooseneck or narrow punches.

Tall flanges obstruct bending tools

Model example

Two 30 mm upright flanges enclose a narrow channel with a 24 mm flat base. The depth makes access for the second bend difficult; tool collision is screened heuristically.

Dimensions (approx.): 32 × 34 × 60 mm

Expected check result

PRU-007 reports an informational note only (gooseneck or narrow punches may be needed; not a defect), so this is a regression example, not a demo.
