Course detail

Forming Tools

FSI-HTNAcad. year: 2024/2025

The course deals with following topics: Types of forming tools - simple tools, follow-tools, combined tools, compound tools. Also dealt with is the design of tools for rolling, swaging, bending, deep drawing, extrusion, forging. The course focuses also on the design elements of tools including technological and design computations, materials for tools as well as on special tools for small number of products. Tools used for non conventional forming techniques.
