Sheet metal fabrication processes are receiving greater attention and are more widely applied by the metalworking industries because of the savings in cost and material.

This book compiles the proven theories and operations tested in industrial applications. Focus is on the non-chip-producing machine tools. New materials and advances in tooling are discussed, as well as the need for applied science in optimizing the operations for sheet metal fabrication processes. Examples of each of these forming processes are given, and the text also describes the mechanics of each process.

The volume is divided into five sections, each consisting of a series of chapters. The major sections cover fabricating presses, stamping and forming operations, plastics for tooling, structural shapes, and nontraditional
