Sheet metal fabrication in china sheet metal is a kind of integrated metal cold working technology for metal sheet usually in under 6mm usually the parts plastically deformed by handwork or stamping die to form your desired shape and size and it also can be further formed more complex parts by welding or other metal cold working technology including laser cutting punching bending.
Dies and presses for sheet metal processes 6.
Drawing sheet metal forming to make cup shaped box shaped or other complex curved hollow shaped parts sheet metal blank is positioned over die cavity and then punch pushes metal into opening products.
Therefore exceptions can be there for complex features design.
When designing parts for laser cutting one should not make holes smaller than the thickness of the material.

Beverage cans ammunition shells automobile body panels also known as deep drawing to distinguish it from wire and bar drawing 2007 john wiley sons inc.
Avoid large sheet metal parts with small bent flanges.
In low carbon steel sheet metal the minimum radius of a bend should be one half the material thickness or 0 80 mm 0 03 inch whichever is larger.
But testing these exceptions before design release is a good practice.
