2. Bar stock - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bar_stock

   Bar stock, also (colloquially) known as blank, slug or billet, [1] is a common form of raw purified metal, used by industry to manufacture metal parts and products. Bar stock is available in a variety of extrusion shapes and lengths.

3. Sheet metal - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sheet_metal

   Sheet metal is available in flat pieces or coiled strips. The coils are formed by running a continuous sheet of metal through a roll slitter. In most of the world, sheet metal thickness is consistently specified in millimeters. In the U.S., the thickness of sheet metal is commonly specified by a traditional, non-linear measure known as its ...

4. Corrugated galvanised iron - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corrugated_galvanised_iron

   Corrugated galvanised iron (CGI) or steel, colloquially corrugated iron (near universal), wriggly tin (taken from UK military slang), pailing (in Caribbean English), corrugated sheet metal (in North America), zinc (in Cyprus and Nigeria) or custom orb / corro sheet (Australia), is a building material composed of sheets of hot-dip galvanised ...

5. Embossing (manufacturing) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Embossing_(manufacturing)

   Sheet metal embossing is a metalworking process for producing raised or sunken designs or relief in sheet metal. In contrast to coining (which uses unmatched dies), embossing uses matched male and female dies [ 1 ] to achieve the pattern, either by stamping , or by passing a sheet or strip of metal between patterned rollers . [ 2 ]

7. Nesting (process) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nesting_(process)

   Examples include manufacturing parts from flat raw material such as sheet metal, glass sheets, cloth rolls, cutting parts from steel bars, etc. Such process can also be applied to additive manufacturing, such as 3D printing. Here the advantages sought can include minimizing tool movement that is not producing product, or maximizing how many ...

8. Rolling (metalworking) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rolling_(metalworking)

   For thin sheet metal with a thickness less than 200 μm (0.0079 in), [citation needed] the rolling is done in a cluster mill because the small thickness requires a small diameter rolls. [10] To reduce the need for small rolls pack rolling is used, which rolls multiple sheets together to increase the effective starting thickness.

9. Drawing (manufacturing) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drawing_(manufacturing)

   Drawing is a manufacturing process that uses tensile forces to elongate metal, glass, or plastic. As the material is drawn (pulled), it stretches and becomes thinner, achieving a desired shape and thickness. Drawing is classified into two types: sheet metal drawing and wire, bar, and tube drawing.
