Forming sheet metal is one of the most critical processes in fabricating and manufacturing parts and components. In sheet metal forming, metals are reshaped in their solid state while they are still ...

In order to improve the forming quality, it is vital to understand the mechanisms that cause the plastic strain localization which eventually leads to ductile damage occurrence in the incremental ...

Cross wedge rolling (CWR) is an advanced metal forming process that employs a series of wedged tools to plastically deform a workpiece into near-net shape components. This process has become ...

Shropshire-based SDE Technology is leading a project to develop a new hybrid superplastic forming process that would enable it to expand into the aerospace market. Manufacturing with this new approach ...
