Trimming

When cups and shells are drawn from flat sheet metal the edge is left wavy and irregular, due to uneven flow of metal. This irregular edge is trimmed in a trimming die. Shown is flanged shell, as well as the trimmed ring removed from around the edge. While a small amount of material is removed from the slide of a component or strip is also called as trimming.
