Incremental sheet forming of thermoplastics: a review [PDF]
AbstractIncremental sheet forming (ISF) is a promising flexible manufacturing process, which has been tested in sheet forming of various metallic materials. Although ISF-based forming of thermoplastics is relatively new, it has drawn considerable interests and significant progress has been made in recent years.

Because the forming area involved in traditional reverse multistage incremental forming is only located inside the model, the sheet-metal thinning rate is relatively large.

Exergy analysis of incremental sheet forming [PDF]
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.

A new hybrid stretch forming and double-layer two-point incremental sheet forming process [PDF]
This research presents a new hybrid stretch forming and double-layer two-point incremental sheet forming (hybrid stretch forming and DL-TPIF). The novelty of the proposed hybrid process is first to employ double-layer blank sheets in the conventional two-

Characterisation and modelling of ductile fracture in incremental sheet forming of an aluminium alloy with consideration of temperature variations. [PDF]
Although extensive studies have been conducted to predict ductile fracture at room temperature, no attempt has been made to use Gurson–Tvergaard–Needleman (GTN) model to capture the effect of temperature due to spindle speed induced friction heat on ...

A new flexible multi-point incremental sheet forming process with multi-layer sheets [PDF]
In this research, a new flexible multi-point incremental sheet forming process with multi-layer sheets (F-MPIF-MLS) was proposed. The novelty of this new forming process is demonstrated by two specific aspects of contribution.

Analysis of the Section Deflection in the Incremental Sheet Metal Forming Process of the Circular Cup Shape according to the Cup Geometry [PDF]
Incremental sheet metal forming can be used to manufacture various products without the punch and die set. However, it is difficult to manufacture the desired shape due to section deflection and springback of the sheet.
