Abstract: The shaping and forming of metal sheet is a key manufacturing process. Incremental Sheet Forming (ISF) is a novel sheet metal forming technology where the deformation of the metal sheet ...

Abstract: Within this article, the authors propose a new methodology to increase the geometric accuracy in the robot-based, incremental sheet forming process ROBOFORMING. This process addresses the ...

If you want to form a piece of sheet metal into a shape, you’ll probably think about using a die. That’s certainly a great way to do it, but it presupposes you can create or purchase the die, which ...

3D printing is increasingly establishing itself as a tool for individual and economical solutions in architecture. Researchers at the Fraunhofer Institute for Machine Tools and Forming Technology (IWU ...

This project explores the forming possibilities using an Incremental Sheet Forming (ISF) process to create a closed volume composed of two irregular surfaces, joined along a common outline that forms ...
