“…Result showed that the forming forces were higher in case of profile tool path as compared to those obtained with the helical tool path. Rauch et al [73] evaluated the impact of tool path types and proposed a new approach to perform intelligent CAM program based for the tool path optimization.…”

“…It was found that the predicted forces were in good agreement with the experimental results. Arfa et al [48] studied the influence of sheet thickness on AA3003-O sheets by experimental work and simulation with ABAQUS software with a set of standard Profile [2], [4][5], [30][31], [36][37][38], [56][57][58][59][60][61][62][63][64], [66][67], [69][70][71][72][73], [76][77], [81] Helical [7][8], [23], [32], [41][42][43], [68], [72], [79] Comparison of tool paths [6], [52][53][54][55] 24% (a) (b) Sudden peaks in axial forces were observed between two consecutive layers in profile tool path.

“…Results showed that resultant vector forces were increased from 700 to 800 N when step size was increased from 0.635 to 1.27 mm. Rauch et al [73] also investigated the impact of vertical step size (0.5 mm and 1.0 mm) for different tool path strategies on AA5086 sheets of thickness 0.6 mm.…”

“…Most of the researchers [4, 8, 26, 50, 54-67, 72-74, 79] studied the influence of vertical step size on the forming forces during the SPIF process at room temperature, whereas [38] investigated the forming forces at elevated Step size (mm) Force increases with the increase in step size during SPIF at room temperature [4], [8], [30][31], [55][56][57][58][59][60][61][62][63][64][65][66][67][68], [73][74][75], [80] Force increases with the increase in step size during electric heat assisted ISF at elevated temperature [43] Force increases with the increase in step size during TPIF at room temperature [81][82] Fig . 18 Forming force trend with step size temperature using electric hot-assisted ISF process.…”

“…Similarly, Ambrogio et al [64] also observed the similar trend of forming force with feed rates. Rauch et al [73] investigated the impact of feed rate (500 mm/min and 1500 mm/min) for different tool path strategies on AA5086 sheets. Results showed that the forming forces increased with the rise in feed rate.…”

Incremental sheet forming (ISF) significantly exempts use of expensive dies and reduces tooling cost for manufacturing complex parts in the field of sheet metal forming which makes it suitable for manufacturing prototypes and low volume production as compared to other traditional sheet metal forming processes. ISF also finds suitability for producing components of old machinery, which are otherwise very difficult to form due to the unavailability of forming dies. Moreover, the incremental nature of the process and local deformation of the sheet ensures higher formability and lower required forming force. To take advantages of lower required forming force, it is important to minimize and estimate forming force through the manipulation of the parameters for the safe utilization of hardware. In this review article, a literature survey was carried out quantitatively to study different aspects of ISF, especially to show different process parameters and techniques that affect the forming forces significantly. The current state of the art of the ISF process has been discussed with detailed analysis of process capabilities and limitations in terms of forming forces. Influences of different process parameters and forming techniques have also been studied on forming forces. Some parameters have shown their significance to control the forming force in order to preserve forming machinery. A lack of focus was found on effects of some important forming process parameters and methods, which could have been crucial for safe utilization of forming hardware. A number of guidelines have been recommended for future research work. Appropriate guidelines have also been suggested regarding the relationship between process parameters and forming forces developed during the process in order to ensure the applicability of the ISF process on the industrial scale.
