Forming processes are particular manufacturing processes which make use of suitable stresses (like compression, tension, shear or combined stresses) to cause plastic deformation of the materials to produce required shapes.
During forming processes no material is removed, i.e. they are deformed and displaced.
Some of example of forming processes are:
- Forging
- Extrusion
- Rolling
- Sheet metal working
- Rotary swaging
- Thread rolling
- Explosive forming
- Electromagnetic forming
