In this study, an artificial neural network was used to predict the minimum force required to single point incremental forming (SPIF) of thin sheets of Aluminium AA3003-O and calamine brass Cu67Zn33 alloy. Accordingly, the parameters for processing, i.e., step depth, the feed rate of the tool, spindle speed, wall angle, thickness of metal sheets and type of material were selected as input and t...

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...

Abstract In this study, in order to obtain the maximum possible formability tailor-welded blank AA6061 sheets connected by friction stir welding (FSW) procedure, incremental sheet forming process has been utilized. The results are presented both numerically and experimentally. To limit angle, base FSWed were formed different angles with conical geometry, ultimately, angle for metal is estimated...

This paper discusses the thickness distributions calculated from surface strain measurements using stereo Digital Image Correlations (DIC) for parts produced with Single Point Incremental Forming (SPIF). The research is carried out on six benchmark cones and pyramids each convex, straight concave walls. accuracy of calculations, under assumption material incompressibility formula Green-Lagrange...
