 | Die contains the "whole" desired geometry i.e. Forging |
| Die contains only a "producer". Relative motion
is required between the die and the workpiece. i.e. Thread Rolling |
| Die or tool affects only a small portion of the desired
workpiece. Surface and relative motions are required. i.e. Shear Spinning |
| Die or tool does not contain any part of the desired
workpiece shape and the imposed stress is produced in the workpiece by
the forming operation. i.e. Free Upsetting |
