Presenting a New Method for High Speed Incremental Forming

Blog Article

Recently, incremental sheet metal 5 forming (ISMF) process as one of the new methods in rapid prototyping collection has been considered by researchers.This process is based on a defined path in CNC controller and applies a spherical-head tool that supplies the required pressure for sheet metal forming.Despite affirmation of process ability in forming symmetric geometries, some of its aspects such as: high cost in die design and its manufacturing, high cost in using NC machine tools and time consuming forming processare its constraints.Hereupon, a new method for incremental sheet metal forming on turning machine has been presented.

This double-stitched-harness-leather-futurity-knot-brid process uses a spherical-head tool in tool-holder turret, forming sheet metal in symmetric geometries in shortest possible time without requiring a die.With a view to increasing sheet formability, two types of forming strategies were designed and implemented.Finally, the best forming strategy based on final forming depth and effective strain calculations is introduced.
