✦ Synopsis

Single Point Incremental Forming (SPIF) is a modern method of forming sheet metal, where parts can be formed without the use of dedicated dies. The ability of SPIF to form a part is based on various forming parameters. Previous work was not accomplished with the help of design of experiments, thus reducing the number of parameters varied at any time. This paper presents two designs of experiments, which formalise the forming parameters critical in SPIF and the degree to which they affect formability.
