Abstract (en)

A stretch forming system has jaws clamping a workpiece at end edge portions, a die disposed between the jaws and coming into contact with the workpiece, and a plurality of control axes changing relative positions and orientations of the jaws with respect to the die, and has a jaw path calculating unit calculating paths of the relative positions and orientations of the jaws with respect to the die when the workpiece is wrapped onto the die by moving the die in a vertical direction under a restricting condition that the positions and orientations of the jaws are freely changeable except for movement in a vertical direction being regulated, and a control axis operation pattern calculating unit calculating operation patterns of the plurality of the control axes achieving the paths of the jaws.
