The following tools are used in cutting bending and forming operations:-
Junior hacksaw for smaller pieces of metal such as conduit pipe and senior hacksaw for thicker and bigger pieces such as trunking and tray. Use a vice to hold the work safely and use appropriate PPE such as steel toe capped boots, overalls, gloves, and eye protection. Use a cordless power drill or a 115 volt drill to drill screw holes and use a hole saw on the drill for the holes to attach the conduit by nut and bush.
Use a rounded file to get rid of burs inside conduit and where the trunking and tray has been sawed.
Use a pipe bending machine to form the conduit and use the pipe bender vice and a die along with grease to thread the ends of the conduit.
Using these machines, a machinist may perform up to 32 different types of cutting and forming operations.

The process of bending metal into new shapes is called "forming" or "metal forming." This can be done through various methods such as bending, rolling, stamping, or extruding.
Forming, shaping or working.
Materials for forming operations are typically prepared through processes such as cutting, shaping, and conditioning to ensure they meet specific dimensions and properties. This may involve heating, which enhances malleability, or cold working, which increases strength. Surface treatments may also be applied to improve adhesion or reduce friction during forming. Lastly, the materials are often inspected for quality to ensure they are suitable for the intended forming process.
Roll forming is the continuous bending of sheet metal. It is passed through a set of rolls where each roll plays a part in the bending until the desired look is formed.
In generating, the geometry of the workpart is determined by the feed trajectory of the cutting tool. On the other hand in forming, the shape of the part is created by the geometry of the cutting tool.
I believe you want to know the MINIMUM bending radius of sheet metal. The maximum bend would be 180 degrees.
tapping is a metal cutting process & rolling is a forming process.
In many cases, rivers are responsible for cutting valleys and canyons.
