Incremental sheet metal forming can be used to manufacture various products without the punch and die set. However, it is difficult to manufacture the desired shape due to section deflection and springback of the sheet. Section deflection is caused by the force of the blank holder for fixing the sheet and the tool for forming the sheet. In this study, we analyzed the characteristics of the section deflection according to the geometries of the circular cup shapes in the sheet incremental forming process. The section deflection increased with an increase in the entering radius and forming angle in the section deflection region. However, section deflection was constant according to the exit radius. In addition, the secondary forming process for reducing the shape error was introduced. The secondary incremental forming process was conducted in the opposite direction. Characteristics of the shape error according to the entering depth of the tool among the forming parameters for reducing the shape error of the cup shape were analyzed. The springback in the cup-shape was reduced by the additional forming process with an optimum entering depth of the tool.

Hydrostatic forming has recently been applied as a special method for manufacturing products with complex surfaces from sheet or tube metal. However, effects of technological parameters as well as geometrical parameters of die on formability and quality have not been thoroughly studied. It can be seen from research on hydrostatic forming for cylindrical products that the formation of curve radius at the bottom of cylindrical die has a heavy dependence on input parameters: blank holder pressure, liquid pressure, relative depth of die and relative thickness of work piece. Furthermore, small value of curve radius at die bottom is supposed to prevent the formability due to the difference in forming mechanism between hydrostatic forming and conventional drawing. Therefore, it is necessary that the extent to which the curve radius at die bottom relies on the parameters above be evaluated. Using orthogonal second order design, relationships between the parameters and curve radius are studied and presented as functions and graphs. From that, values of curve radius can be suitably defined in different forming modes.
