Italian term

lavorato a laminazione

Italian to English Other Metallurgy / Casting Storia del bronzo
I bronzi che contengono rame sopra al 90% si prestano alla lavorazione di lamine a martello, allo sbalzo, alla scultura a freddo con un massiccio intervento di rifinitura, come avvenne nella scultura greca e nel Rinascimento italiano ad esempio con Ghiberti, Donatello, Cellini.
Per questo motivo nel mondo preclassico, la rarità dello stagno fece sì che il bronzo venisse ***lavorato a laminazione.***

Many thanks!

rolled

this is the usual translation for this term. Apparently also used in ancient times, for example:

"The arms are separate from the body and emphasize the dynamism of the hunting pharaoh: in his right hand he is gripping the long spear whilst in his left he is holding a rope in rolled bronze"

Visto che si parla di "lamine a martello", non credo che si possa parlare di "rolling mills".

"Wire, at least in Europe, was never made by " drawing ",
Gold and bronze wire of a round section might be made
by hammering out a rod of the metal and then rolling it
to round off the edges."

the alternative would be "beaten"

"SCABBARDS In the 8th to 7th centuries BC sheaths or scabbards were usually made of beaten bronze with a cast bronze chape"
