All of the bends on this
robot were done in run of the mill sheet metal break without any prior preparation. I would agree you have to go farther than you want as it flexes back slightly but it is pretty straightforward. As you get closer to 90 degrees you might start to see microcracks appear, but we never had any panels fail (although we never really used them in load bearing situations).
