Sheet casting of metallic glasses and twin roll sheet casting of bulk metallic glasses and composite in an inert environment. Samples may be heated by RF to a temperature in the semi-solid region. After semi-solid processing, the partial liquid then may be poured or injected to achieve the desired shape. Plates of metallic glasses and/or metallic glass matrix composites may be formed (for example, through diecasting) and serve as a pre-form for rolling. In this configuration, the plates may be lowered through a radio frequency coil into compressing wheels, directly next to or below the coil. As the plates pass through the coil they may heat to above the glass transition temperature. Next, they may be fed into the rolling wheel to thermoplasically form the plates into thinner sheets.
