Abstract

The use of Single-Point Incremental Forming (SPIF) technology in hole flanging operations using multi-stages strategies have been widely studied in the last few years. However, these strategies are very time-consuming, limiting its industrial application. In a very recent work of the authors, the capability of SPIF process to successfully perform hole-flanges using a single-stage strategy has been experimentally investigated. The aim of the present work is to develop a numerical model of this process to be able to predict the sheet failure as a function of the size of the pre-cut hole. The numerical results are compared and discussed in the light of experimental tests over AA7075-O metal sheets with 1.6mm thickness.
