A brief review on the perspective of a newer incremental sheet forming technique and its usefulness

ABSTRACT

Incremental sheet formation (ISF) is extensively used versatile technique for newer manufacturing processes, such as creating skull prostheses, aerospace equipment, automobile, and so on. The current work describes the techniques, history, and classification of ISF-based on the results of few aspects such as force forming, stress triaxiality, force forming, bending stress, and so on. In addition, the influence of different parameters and their effect on building force, formability, spring-back, failure, surface roughness, rupture, and so on, have been analysed. It has been noticed that an investigation of the two degrees of freedom (DF) robot-manipulators with the ISF and its influences on surface coarseness and formability are greatly suggested.
