Background

Sheet metal parts are used extensively in Automobiles, Electronics, Consumer goods and many other products. Sheet metal parts need to be designed for form, functionality and aesthetics whilst keeping in mind the formability of these parts using press tools. Most sheet metal parts are mass produced for which press tools are used. Overlooking the production feasibility of production of metal parts can lead to unwanted design changes and lead to longer product development cycles. Hence knowledge of sheet metal materials, press tools, processing techniques and production feasibility becomes essential for sheet metal part designers.

Keeping this in view, IMTMA is organizing an online training on Design and Processing Techniques for Sheet Metal Parts.
