Blanking is a metal stamping (or can be used for plastc blanking and more) process which amounts to the operation of punching, cutting, or shearing a piece out of stock to a predetermined shape by die cutting the outside shape of a part. Blanking is often used for cutting up a large sheet of stock into smaller pieces suitable for the next operation in metal stamping, such as drawing and forming. The material that is removed is the new metal workpiece or blank.
Blanking is sometimes referred to as turret punching if a turret type machine is used. Turret punching machines are also capable of a range of forming operations in addition to blanking.
