Abstract

Incremental Sheet Forming Technology (ISF) has been attracted many interests of researchers in recent years. The researchers have focused on many engineering aspects of ISF and found out feasible applications for many sectors of industry and domestic fields. However, to be able to apply more successfully in industry, it is necessary to build a completely digital integration for ISF process from product design to development stage. In this paper, authors propose an approach to rationalize End-to-End process for this technology which CAD-CAPP-CAM-CNC is integrated into unique environment (CATIA) by using a data exchange format (STEP). This integrated system increases the geometric accuracy of data exchange and reduce significantly the time for product design and development.
