When using a unique tool with different controlled path strategies in the absence of a punch and die, the local plastic deformation of a sheet is called Single Point Incremental Forming (SPIF). The lack of available knowledge regarding SPIF parameters and their effects on components has made the industry reluctant to embrace this technology. To make SPIF a significant industrial application and to convince the industry to use this technology, it is important to study mechanical properties and effective parameters prior to and after the forming process. Moreover, in order to produce a SPIF component with sufficient quality without defects, optimal process parameters should be selected. In this context, this paper offers insight into the effects of the forming tool diameter, coolant type, tool speed, and feed rates on the hardness of AA1100 aluminium alloy sheet material. Based on the research parameters, different regression equations were generated to calculate hardness. As opposed to the experimental approach, regression equations enable researchers to estimate hardness values relatively quickly and in a practicable way. The Relative Importance (RI) of SPIF parameters for expected hardness, determined with the partitioning weight method of an Artificial Neural Network (ANN), is also presented in the study. The analysis of the test results showed that hardness noticeably increased when tool speed increased. An increase in feed rate also led to an increase in hardness. In addition, the effects of various greases and coolant oil were studied using the same feed rates; when coolant oil was used, hardness increased, and when grease was applied, hardness decreased.

The strategy in manufacturing hardened parts used in car bodies is to tailor the mechanical properties. This is done by combining together a high-strength region and a high-toughness region to ensure the crash performance required. Other successive secondary operations such as trimming, joining and welding can be improved as a result of the tailoring process. In this work, the mechanical properties of 22MnB5 alloy sheet material produced by single-point incremental forming have been tailored. For this purpose, the sheets were locally heated by induction during the forming process and subsequently cooled. The sheet temperature was controlled by the CNC milling machine feed rate and induction power. As a result, the produced tailored parts consist of three different regions: ductile, transition and hardened regions. The Vickers hardness values were 583 HV1 and 175 HV1 for the hardened and ductile regions, respectively. The proposed application allows forming and quenching at the same time without transfer and to reduce the process time.
