methods. The material savings becomes even more significant at larger volumes, and even more so when using expensive materials, such as copper, nickel, gold, tantalum, and palladium. The saving on raw material as a result of cold forming can be very significant, as is saving machining time.
490:. Therefore, it is sometimes more economical to cold work a less costly and weaker metal than to hot work a more expensive metal that can be heat treated, especially if precision or a fine surface finish is required as well. 552:. After the deforming force is removed from the workpiece, the workpiece springs back slightly. The amount a material springs back is equal to the yield strain (the strain at the yield point) for the material. 541:, and a final annealing to relieve residual stress and give the desired properties to the manufactured object. These extra steps would negate some of the economic advantages of cold forming over hot forming. 183:
Cold forming techniques are usually classified into four major groups: squeezing, bending, drawing, and shearing. They generally have the advantage of being simpler to carry out than hot working techniques.

Production cycle times when cold working are very short. On multi-station machinery, production cycle times are even less. This can be very advantageous for large production runs.

Depending on the material and extent of deformation, the increase in strength due to work hardening may be comparable to that of

The need for heavier equipment and harder tools may make cold working suitable only for large volume manufacturing industry.

The possible uses of cold forming are extremely varied, including large flat sheets, complex folded shapes, metal tubes,

Special precautions may be needed to maintain the general shape of the workpiece during cold working, such as

The metal is less ductile and malleable, limiting the amount of deformation that can be obtained

The cold working process also reduces waste as compared to machining, or even eliminates with

The metal is harder, calling for greater forces, harder tools and dies, and heavier equipment
