2. Stamping (metalworking) - Wikipedia

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

   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 ...

3. Roll forming - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roll_forming

   Roll forming is, among the manufacturing processes, one of the simplest. It typically begins with a large coil of sheet metal, between 1 inch (2.5 cm) and 20 inches (51 cm) in width, and 0.004 inches (0.10 mm) and 0.125 inches (3.2 mm) thick, supported on an uncoiler.

4. 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 ...

5. Press brake - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Press_brake

   A press brake is a type of brake, a machine used for bending sheet metal and metal plate. [1] It forms predetermined bends by clamping the workpiece between a matching top tool and bottom die. [2] Typically, two C-frames form the sides of the press brake, connected to a table at the bottom and on a movable beam at the top. The bottom tool is ...

6. Sheet metal - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sheet_metal

   Sheet metal is metal formed into thin, flat pieces, usually by an industrial process. Thicknesses can vary significantly; extremely thin sheets are considered foil or leaf, and pieces thicker than 6 mm (0.25 in) are considered plate, such as plate steel, a class of structural steel. Sheet metal is available in flat pieces or coiled strips.

7. English wheel - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/English_wheel

   The process of using an English wheel is known as wheeling. Panels produced this way are expensive, due to the highly skilled and labour-intensive production method, but it has the key advantage that it can flexibly produce different panels using the same machine. It is a forming machine that works by surface stretching and is related in action ...
