Forming and Material Testing (Available)

For further analysis, there are few test rig available in the MFRL including V-bending rig to study the springback pattern, twist forming for measurement of twist springback, pin-on hole bearing test, torque out test and cupping test. We are in the process of developing few other test rig including dome test for formability study.
