This is a numerically controlled incremental forming process that allows the
rapid production of complex shapes without the expense of costly punch and
die manufacture, ideal for prototype and development work with the ability
to competitively produce a small batch run of work.
Industry Sectors that would benefit from this concept are:
Design and development companies
Car manufacturing
Aerospace industry
Architectural industry
Sign manufacturing
Domestic appliance development
Specialist Boat and luxury Yacht builders
Ship building industry
Sub contractors to the metal forming sector
Benefits
Ideal for initial design or optimization of a new product
Easy customization of existing product
Simple Jigs for straight forward parts
Complex jigs for high quality finish and 3D shapes can be fabricated or
machined using same programme and machines with milling option
Ability to form most types of sheet metal, Mild Steel, Aluminium, Titanium,
Perforated Metal, in .1mm to 4mm
Ability to form Convex or Concave shapes, Trimming, Bending and Hemming
processes are also possible.
Software for programme preparation from IGES files that allow quick set ups
