Shearing
Straight-line cutting of sheet metal and plate using opposed shear blades without heat or chips.
Shearing uses opposed blades to cut sheet metal and plate in straight lines without forming chips or using heat. It is the most efficient method for making straight cuts to size sheet metal blanks and is typically the first operation in a sheet metal fabrication workflow.
