Tribological Characterization of the Heat-Assisted Single Point Incremental Forming Process Applied to the Ti6Al4V Alloy with the Definition of an Adhesion Parameter for the Tool Surface
Heat-assisted single point incremental forming or HA-SPIF has a great potential for producing one-piece batches of hard-to-form materials such as Ti6Al4V alloy for medical and aeronautical applications. One of the limitations of the process is the difficulty in achieving a reasonable surface finish,...
