Advanced Technology Of Plasticity

This conference offers the opportunity to cover all plastic working operations from primary processes such as rolling, extrusion and drawing to secondary processes such as sheet metal forming, forging, roll forming, stretch forming, spinning, and flow turning. This "horizontal" organization of the conference is overlaid by the "vertical" organization which covers fundamentals such as material science, theory of plasticity, tribology as common scientific and technical disciplines and, furthermore, the role of computers, e.g. in process modelling, process control, process simulation, CAD/CAM/CIM/CAE etc., as well as tools and, machine tools including flexible manufacturing cells and systems.
