A research team led by Kyung Mun Min and Seonghwan Choi of Materials Processing Research Division (Korea Institute of ...

Using 3D printed forms to bend sheet metal isn’t exactly new. We’ve seen several people create custom dies for their brakes, and the results have shown the concept has merit for small-scale production ...

Researchers at the U.S. Army Research Laboratory (ARL) have for the first time created complex 3D parts directly from a blank sheet of metal using only a laser cutter. Laser cutters typically cut 2D ...

What causes failure in dies and tooling? It’s a function of tool material selection, one expert advised. Metal forming is critical to industrial operations supplying automotive parts and structural ...
