Abstract
The employment of a green manufacturing process can directly save energy and materials in industrial sectors. Single Point Incremental Forming (SPIF) is an agile and flexible method of fabricating sheet material components and exempts the use of dedicated die-sets which further makes it a choice of green manufacturing. Furthermore, the customized components can be easily fabricated by SPIF economically. The surface quality of fabricated parts can greatly decide the suitability and sustainability of the process in various applications. This work investigates the impact of significant process factors on the roughness of the parts during the SPIF process. The average roughness has been considered to determine the surface quality. The increment in the value of wall angle and step size resulted in the increment in Ra value of formed components drastically. It was also observed that as the forming angle was raised from a lower level (60°) to a higher level (68°), the Ra value was found to increase significantly.
