blanking découpage fin

Explanation:
it seem that the definition provided is teh definition of "fine blanking", not just blanking : "in order to avoid sheet fragmentation of the unused portion of sheet"

"Fine blanking
Typical fine blanking press cross section

Fine blanking is a specialized form of blanking where there is no fracture zone when shearing. This is achieved by compressing the whole part and then an upper and lower punch extract the blank.[5] This allows the process to hold very tight tolerances, and perhaps eliminate secondary operations."
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blanking_(metalworking)

"Découpage fin[modifier]

Opération qui consiste à découper des pièces dans de la tôle plutôt épaisse. La pièce obtenue par ce procédé a la particularité d'avoir le bord découpé parfaitement perpendiculaire à la face, et de très bonnes qualités géométriques et dimensionnelles. L'outillage nécessaire pour cette découpe est de conception particulière par rapport aux outils de découpe habituels car la tôle est maintenue dans la phase découpe par des joncs des retenues."
