Single-point incremental forming (SPIF) is a kind of incremental sheet forming that is significantly novel. This method involves the utilization of a computer numerical control (CNC) machine to control the path of a forming tool, which is produced by a computer-aided manufacturing program (CAM), as it stretches a metallic sheet to achieve a desired shape. Low patch output and customized parts are good candidates for this kind of technique. The aim of the present investigation is first to study the effect of Aluminum alloy 6061 strength on the thickness distribution and thinning ratio in SPIF and then select the optimal strength to ensure uniform thickness and minimize the thinning. In order to achieve this, two different strengths of Al 6061 sheets have been employed: One used in its original form and the other heat-treated to change its strength. Specimens have been prepared using the SPIF procedure for a truncated cone with dimensions of 120 mm diameter and 40 mm depth; the forming slope is 50°, and Solid work program was used to create the tool path. The thickness reduction along the wall portions was analyzed employing the finite element method using Abaqus software, and the numerical results were experimentally confirmed, where the deviation ratio between simulation and experiment was 2% for sample 1 and 5% for sample 2. The findings manifested that the specimens exhibited a consistent distribution of thickness, and the maximum thinning ratio decreased from 30% to 28.5% as the yield strength decreased from 278 MPa to 68.7 MPa, respectively.

Layered metallic materials (LMMs) offer superior properties in comparison to their counterpart monolithic sheets. Single-point incremental forming (SPIF) has emerged as an economical solution to produce LMM parts. However, delamination can limit the formability of such parts. In this study, the delamination analysis during SPIF of layered sheets was performed. Steel/steel bi-layer sheets were fabricated by roll bonding. These sheets were produced at thickness reduction ratios of 47%, 58% and 70%. The bond strength and fracture toughness in mode I and mode II were determined by T-peel and tensile shear tests, respectively. When the thickness reduction ratio was increased from 47 to 70%, an increase in bond strength was observed with 572% increase in mode I and 15.6% in mode II, respectively. On the other hand, with the same percent increase in thickness reduction, the critical strain energy release showed an increase of 3992% in mode I and 20% decrease in mode II. Surface-based cohesive zone model was used to define the interface between layers during numerical simulation of SPIF for delamination analysis. To validate the numerical results, SPIF of given bi-layer sheet was performed experimentally and a good agreement between the numerical and experimental results was observed.
