How does a metal part go from a basic idea to millions of identical, high-performance components? Doug Stevens of Stevens Company, Inc. addresses this question in a HelloNation article focused on the ...

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 ...

Forming complex shapes in metal sheets is still a laborious process, especially if you aren’t needing more than a couple parts so stamping doesn’t make sense. That may change with Digital Sheet ...

In order to improve the forming quality, it is vital to understand the mechanisms that cause the plastic strain localization which eventually leads to ductile damage occurrence in the incremental ...

What causes failure in dies and tooling? It’s a function of tool material selection, one expert advised. Metal forming is critical to industrial operations supplying automotive parts and structural ...
