Sheet & Plate Forming
This group of processes involves the Forming of Sheet and Plate Metal into 3 Dimensional Shapes, using varying deformation mechanisms.
This includes components at sizes smaller than 300mm diameter / square.
• Metal Pressing
• Metal Spinning
• Sheet Hydroforming
• Shot Peen Forming
This category excludes the bending of sheet and plate metal, see "Plate & Sheet Metal Bending & Rolling" for specific processes revolved around the 2 Dimensional action of bending.
