Abstract

The present paper describes the experimental investigation on influence of process parameters on maximum forming force in Single Point Incremental Forming (SPIF) process using dummy sheet. Process parameters namely dummy sheet thickness, tool size, step size, wall angle and feed rate are selected. Taguchi L18 orthogonal array is used to design the experiments. From the analysis of variance (ANOVA) dummy sheet thickness, tool size, step size and wall angle are significant process parameters while feed rate is insignificant. It is found that as dummy sheet thickness, tool size, step size and wall angle increase magnitude of peak forming force increases while there is marginal decrease in forming force as feed rate increases. Predictive model is also developed for forming force. Validation tests are performed in order to check the accuracy of developed model. Optimum set of process parameters is also determined to minimize forming force. Experimental results are in good agreement with results predicted by the developed mathematical model.
