A lighted assembly includes a perforated member having a plurality of relatively small openings therethrough. The openings are arranged to provide areas forming letters, designs, or the like. A light source may be positioned adjacent the perforated member whereby light from the light source travels through the openings to form illuminated letters, designs or the like. The perforations may be filled with a light-transmitting polymer material. The light source may comprise an LED and a light guide that distributes light along a lower side of the perforated member. The light source may be positioned in a waterproof housing that is sealed to the perforated member.

Provided is a technology capable of suppressing an edge crack occurring due to stretch flange deformation without being constrained by a target pressed component shape. The technology includes two-stage cutting processing of, when it is estimated that there is concern about risk of occurrence of an edge crack due to stretch flange deformation on an edge of a material (1) to be pressed in press forming, performing twice cutting processing on an edge including at least a site where there is concern about risk of occurrence of the edge crack as pre-processing for press forming in which there is concern about risk of occurrence of the edge crack. In the two-stage cutting processing, cutting to form a partial, beam-shaped overhang portion at a position including a site where there is concern about risk of occurrence of the edge crack is performed in the first cutting and the overhang portion is cut in the second cutting.

Cards may be manufactured in a lamination process, such that interior portions of the cards may be visible. Punch alignment queues within the card may be scanned by a punch machine and rendered onto a display of the punch machine. The punch alignment queues may be aligned with targets also rendered onto the display so that the card may be properly aligned within a punch machine to prepare the card for a trimming process. A Venturi system may temporarily adhere the card to a punch of the punch machine while the punch is engaged with a die to trim the card. The cutting surface of the die may be offset with respect to a surface of the punch, so that the card may be sequentially trimmed along a perimeter of the card.
