Research in the last 15 years has led to die-less incremental forming processes that are close to realization in an industrial setup. Whereas many studies have been carried out with the intention of investigating technical abilities and economic consequences, the ecological impact of incremental sheet forming (ISF) has not been studied so far. Using the concept of exergy analysis, two ISF techn...

Purpose: In this paper the experimental equipment and design of the system for deformation and forming force measuring by single point incremental sheet metal forming are described. Beside this the analysis results of the impact of the wall angle, tool rotation, vertical step size, tool diameter and lubrication on the magnitude of forming force and plastic logarithmic strain are presented. Desi...

One of the methods for making prototypes is incremental forming process. In this method, the forming tool, performs a pre-programmed movement by the CNC machine and runs the desired path. This modernization process is used in the automotive, aerospace, military, medical and other industries. One of the most influential parameters in this process is forming tool. This parameter is effective in f...

Efforts to reduce COx are extremely important, which forces the use of materials and technologies that weight means transport in order energy consumption. Currently, aluminum alloys FRP composites still too expensive for mass industry applications. Presented this study, Litecor is a three-layer composite combines high strength steel with low density plastic. Thanks external covers 0.3 mm thick ...

Nowadays Single Point Incremental Forming (SPIF) is really a new technology of forming metal sheet after its formation and long development in about five decades. Although it was invented in, 1967 by Leszak, an American inventor, but the applications innovative have just been popular from 1990 because advance controlling technology. This especially adapted to small batch, unique or single produ...

Abstract The single point incremental forming (SPIF) process is a flexible and progressive manufacturing technique in the monolithic molding domain of heterogeneous metal pressing panels, which can contribute to panels with complex contour applicable fabrication small amount titanium mesh plates for cranial prosthesis. A sandwich construction was proposed this paper purpose inhibiting indentati...
