Abstract
The use of computers in manufacturing has enabled the development of several new metal forming processes that are based upon older technologies. In this case modifications have been made to traditional forming methods such as conventional spinning and shear forming. These two processes are similar in that the deformation mechanism is localized to a small region under the forming tool. Recent advances in computing power have enabled this localized deformation to be accurately controlled and studied. Spinning, shear forming and flow forming are limited to forming parts that are symmetrical about the revolving lathe axis. Current research has been focused on forming non-symmetrical parts using computer numerical control (CNC) technology, without the need for costly dies. A comparison of traditional and modern forming methods is presented here in an attempt to illustrate the evolution of different incremental sheet metal forming techniques. Emphasis is placed on conventional spinning, shear forming and modern computer-controlled forming methods that are currently being studied.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
