Evaluation of Thickness Distribution during Single Point Incremental Forming of Pure Aluminum Alloy Al1050

Single point incremental forming (SPIF) is a part of the branch of incremental sheet metal forming (ISF) processes. This alternative has demonstrated several outcomes, including low produc tion cost, flexibility, and capability to manufacture various intricate sheet metal parts in automotive, aerospace, medical applications, etc. In the present investigation, the SPIF process performed to ex amine the influence of the process parameters, including the step depth and the feed rate, on the wall thickness distribution of the deformed shape. Results indicate that the step depth has the predominant impact on the reduction of wall thickness.
