Deep-drawing is an industrial forming process which allows the user to process large batches of sheet metals parts. One of the major drawbacks of this process is the complexity and the high cost of dies. In comparison incremental forming is a flexible process, allowing the user to obtain sheet metal parts without the need of using a die. The present paper aims to present a comparative study of the two forming processes by presenting the main advantages and drawbacks of each one. The comparative study, aimed on the industrial implementation of the incremental forming process requires a comparison of the two processes regarding the environmental impact. Thus, the results of the study will justify the selection of the incremental forming process in the case of small batches sheet metal parts in conditions of minimal impact on the environment.
