Contributions Regarding Incremental Forming Process of Bimetallic Sheets

Abstract:

Incremental forming is a process with a high degree of novelty, so this paper describes first of all a series of theoretical principles of the incremental forming process. A main objective of the paper was the usage, as blanks in incremental forming process of bimetallic sheets. So the experimental researches have targeted the realising of parts with different shapes made from such type of blank. In the experimental researches was chosen as technological equipment for incremental forming the numerical controlled milling centre. The paper also present the tools used in incremental forming in order to obtain a hemispherical parts.
