DEFINITION

Classification: 156/209

(under subclass 199) Processes in which the reshaping operation involves only the surface of the lamina and only partially through the thickness and wherein the overall shape of the lamina throughout its breadth and width is unaltered.

(1) Note. Embossing of a lamina is an example of a surface deformation operation within the scope of this subclass.

(2) Note. See the part (3) of the definition of subclass 196 of this class for the scope of the term "surface deformation".
