About the Project
The incremental sheet forming is a new sheet metal forming technology where the part can be formed by a punch with a small diameter which is performing a tool path and during this travelling the tool performs localised sheet forming. This tool path can be controlled by CNC but the design of the tool path and the forming conditions need to be addressed through numerical modelling and by using advanced numerical sheet metal forming techniques.
The candidate will have to have some experience with the finite element method and will have to be willing to learn the modelling of sheet metal forming processes. There is also the aim of building a robot-type machine for incremental sheet metal forming for the experimental validation of the numerical models developed.
