Manufacturing is a significant process for the engineering industries to convert raw materials into a complete product. Apart from other manufacturing processes, forming is one of the efficient methods to develop the product. Single Point Incremental Forming [SPIF] process is a forming method that can produce components with reduced die cost compared to other conventional forming methods but it has a drawback of consuming more time to complete the forming process. A new multipoint tool is proposed in this paper to overcome the drawback by reducing the processing time and resulting high quality product. In addition, the newly designed multipoint tool improvises the formability of the sheet metal with good surface finish. The Austenitic stainless steel of grade 202 is used to compare the outputs obtained during Multi-Point Incremental Forming [MPIF] process and SPIF process. The formability of the sheet metal is evaluated along with the surface roughness using the Forming Limit Diagram [FLD] and void analysis. The roughness value of the sheet metals formed were analysed using the Three Dimensional (3D) surface roughness tester. Based on the results obtained, it is identified that higher formability and better surface finish are obtained by multipoint forming tool compared to single point forming tool.
