2. Hydroforming - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydroforming

   Hydroforming is capable of producing parts within tight tolerances including aircraft tolerances where a common tolerance for sheet metal parts is within 0.76 mm (1/30th of an inch). Metal hydroforming also allows for a smoother finish as draw marks produced by the traditional method of pressing a male and female die together are eliminated.

3. Automotive hemming - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automotive_Hemming

   Hemming presses are widely used in automotive manufacturing for the hemming of sheet-metal body components. The process uses traditional hydraulically operated ‘stamping presses’ to hem closure parts, and, being the last forming process in stamping, it largely determines the external quality of such automotive parts as doors, hoods, and trunk lids.

4. Body in white - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Body_in_white

   Body in white, partially outfitted to highlight the safety systems fitted to the vehicle. Body in white (BIW) is the stage in automobile manufacturing in which a car body's frame has been joined together, that is before painting and before the motor, chassis sub-assemblies, or trim (glass, door locks/handles, seats, upholstery, electronics, etc.) have been integrated into the structure.

5. Incremental sheet forming - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Incremental_sheet_forming

   Ford Motor Company has recently released Ford Freeform Fabrication Technology, a two-point incremental sheet-forming technique being implemented in the rapid prototyping of automotive parts. Complex shapes such as the human face [ 5 ] and cranial implants [ 6 ] have been manufactured successfully using this manufacturing process.

6. Quarter panel - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quarter_panel

   Quarter panels are typically made of sheet metal, but are sometimes made of fiberglass, carbon fiber, or fiber-reinforced plastic. A quarter panel is typically a welded-on component of the unibody structure. Replacement of a sheet metal quarter panel typically requires it to be cut off the vehicle and a replacement part to be welded (or ...

7. Stamping (metalworking) - Wikipedia

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

   Stamping (also known as pressing) is the process of placing flat sheet metal in either blank or coil form into a stamping press where a tool and die surface forms the metal into a net shape. Stamping includes a variety of sheet-metal forming manufacturing processes, such as punching using a machine press or stamping press , blanking, embossing ...
