Research Status of High-pressure Water Jet Incremental Sheet Metal Forming and Research on a New Method of the Straight-walled Sheet Metal Part Forming

摘要

The basic theory, process characteristics and advantages of high-pressure water jet incremental sheet metal forming were introduced. International research progresses in this field were summarized. The difficulty of straight-walled sheet metal part forming was analyzed, and a new method was researched, the result shows that the solution by regulating the contact angle which between sheet metal and water jet is practicable. The future developments were prospected.
