Manufacturing process design for small batch sheet metal forming operations demands special concepts like incremental forming, forming at locally increased temperatures, rapid tooling, fast and reliable preparatory operations,... The objective of the proposed work is to study specific production parameters for particular manufacturing process considering also their integration into uniform system. For this purpose the decision making matrix shall be determined focused on the optimal selection and combination of available technologies for the small batch.

The paper is focused towards the analysis of different manners of lubrication (dry contact, liquid lubricant and hard coatings) and to investigate tribological properties during a single point incremental forming (SPIF) technology, which is nowadays very attractive and manly used for small and medium batch production.
