cold rolling
That's ambiguous: in the context of metallurgy, cold rolling refers to the process of "Kaltwalzen" (cf. "cold-rolled steel") but the German term might also be the plural of "Kaltwalze" (cold roll). I suspect, however, that the former is meant here.
(It wouldn't hurt if you provided some of the surrounding terms on the list in order for us to get a clearer picture.)
