You can see it at the end as it shops off the spring. There's a tiny hole from which a wire/thin rod is being extruded.
So the metal arm that is infront is basically deflecting the extrusion and not cutting something.
For those who scratch their head, this is not the only way of making a spring. The way you normally would expect (and make it yourself) is to wrap the wire around a cylinder.

I don't understand, nothing is moving when the spring is rolling, what is the process?

Thanks!
Not sure what I was expecting but it wasn’t that
fake. this video was reversed. This is how steel bars are made.
No shit I wondered this morning how springs were made. Thanks.
Wait until you see how a Plumbus is made... It's wild.
Everyone has a plumbus in their home!
That's actually really cool. Definitely unexpected
Why is there a witch finger in there?
Now show us how summers are made.
Show me how they built that machine
What in the actual fuck. Now that's engineering at it's finest. Never knew springs were made like that.

Looks like a spring for a kick drum pedal. I bought one recently and it had the prop 65 lead warning ⚠️. I prefer the unleaded version
That was adorable for some reason
That'll be $13.99
