In Metal extrusion, a cylindrical billet inside a closed cavity is forced to flow through a die with a fixed cross-sectional profile
Manufacturing is a large-scale production of goods using energy, manual labour, machinery, tools, and manufacturing processes to convert raw materials, parts, and components into finished items by changing geometry, properties, and appearance.
Thermoforming is where a plastic/glass sheet is heated and formed to a specific shape in a mould, and trimmed to create a usable product
Compression moulding is a manufacturing process which uses heat and pressure to mould plastic resins and thermosets into a desired shape
Advanced machining processes are cutting-edge techniques used to shape, cut, or remove material from a workpiece
During metal forming, the metal is plastically deformed by a force that exceeds the material yield strength where strain hardening occurs
