Background

A big proportion of professionals working in Sheet forming have learn't the tricks of the trade and the do’s & don’ts the hard way, through years of painstaking experiential learning. The onslaught of new technology and materials in this domain has been so rapid that there is a dire need for a short capsule covering the basics, new technologies along with practical aspects of meeting the taller demands on quality and process performance.

In order to address this requirement; Indian Machine Tool Manufacturers' Association (IMTMA) is organising a six hour online Primer course in Sheet metal forming. 

Key Takeaways

At the end of the program, the participants shall be able to understand:

• Sheet formability fundamentals
• New sheet metal materials
• Considerations of part design, process design and tool design
• New Technology trends in automotive industry
• Advantages and challenges in adopting new technology / materials
