Abstract

Incremental sheet forming (ISF) is a highly flexible manufacturing process suitable for low volume and rapid prototype production of sheet metal parts. This paper focuses on the usability of colourcoated (pre-painted) sheets in ISF. Forming limits for steel, zinc and paint need to be considered. Based on tests with stretch forming and ISF the behaviour of colour-coated sheets is studied.
