Sheet-metal Fabrication
Cutting and forming of sheet-metal parts.
Also called: Sheet-metal Fabrication · 금속 가공 · Metal fabrication
An industry that cuts parts from steel, aluminium, and other sheet stock with laser, plasma, or punch, then forms them. Its cutting stage — True-shape Nesting — is the industrial case of 2D Irregular Nesting, where material yield is cost. Sheet-metal-specific constraints include kerf (cut width) compensation, common-line cutting that cuts adjacent parts along a shared edge, and optimizing the cutting head's travel path.
Claims & evidence
Every relationship is a claim with an evidence grade; applicable problem-to-problem relationships also carry an equivalence level. See the evidence policy.
A–X describes evidence reliability; E0–E4 describes mathematical similarity between problems. The two axes are independent.
