Abstract: Incremental Sheet Forming (ISF) process modelling is studied. Main attention is paid to safe manufacturing. Experimental, numerical and theoretical study is performed in order to determine the material formability and the forming load components. ISF strategies for determining the Forming Limit Diagram (FLD) are pointed out. The obtained experimental results have been found to be in good agreement with theoretical considerations. The effect of plastic anisotropy of metal sheets is considered in theoretical models and test design. The obtained results allow to predict tool and material failure in ISF process.
