Metal forming encompasses a suite of processes—including rolling, extrusion, forging, drawing, spinning and flow forming—that impart shape, dimensional precision and tailored microstructure to ...

Deformation processes transform solid materials from one shape into another. The initial shape is usually simple (e.g., a billet or sheet blank) and is plastically deformed between tools, or dies, to ...

I've had a 1968 Charger since 1984, and I'd like to reproduce most of the exterior sheetmetal in aluminum, including the bumpers. My plan is to cut aluminum panels to size, hold them to the centerline ...

Finite Element Analysis (FEA) has become an indispensable tool for understanding and optimising metal forming operations such as rolling, bending, deep drawing and straightening. By discretising ...
