Forces have been measured in Two Point Incremental Forming and Single Point Incremental Forming of Sheet Metal. It is necessary to know the magnitude of these forces when trying to determine if the equipment available is capable of Forming Sheet Metal by either one of the two foregoing processes. Th...

In this paper an experimental platform capable of measuring forces in process during an incremental forming procedure is described and the results garnered from it are presented. Some of the earliest measurements of forces in incremental forming and the changes induced on the measured load are repor...

Incremental forming is an innovative and flexible sheet metal forming technology for small batch production and prototyping, which does not require any dedicated die or punch to form a complex shape. This paper investigates the process of single point incremental forming of an aluminum cone with a 5...

Incremental forming is an innovative and highly flexible sheet metal forming technology for small batch production and prototyping that does not require any adapted dies or punches to form a complex shape. The purpose of this article is to perform FEM simulations of the forming of a cone with a 50-d...

Single Point Incremental Forming is a new process, which has been developed to make both Rapid Prototyped products and low volume product batches from Sheet Metal. This paper presents a case study of the manufacture of a solar cooker cavity for developing country applications. In the first instance ...
