Improving the Accuracy of Parts Manufactured by Single Point Incremental Forming

Article Preview

Abstract:

The aim of this paper is to enrich the knowledge related to the single point incremental forming (SPIF) process by evaluating the efficiency of two optimization methods - the response surface method and the neural network method - to improve the accuracy of manufactured parts by prescribing a proper combination of the process parameters. The analysis is performed for a double frustum of pyramid made by stainless steel. It was found a good ability of prediction of both methods, demonstrating their suitability for physical implementation in solving problems associated to the SPIF process.
