The dieless NC forming process was developed in Japan as a flexible, alternative manufacturing method to effectively prototype sheet metal stampings and produce production panels with complex shapes in small quantities. It is extremely cost effective, as conventional tooling is not required. Incremental forming technology is developing as an effective method for producing automotive service parts, adding styling details to existing panels, forming thick sheets, and forming tubes.
