3.0 SHEET METAL PROCESSES





                       EXERCISE 3.1

                       Describe the cutting process that takes place when a pair of scissors cuts through
                       aluminum foil.





                       EXERCISE 3.2


                       Explain why cupping tests may not predict well the formability of sheet metals in actual
                       forming processes.


                     3.3  SHEET METAL BENDING



                            1.   Bending is one of the most common industrial forming operations. Common
                                 bending operations shown in Figure 3.14 and Figure 3.15.
