About
Dominique Guines is a leading researcher in advanced manufacturing, specializing in robotic incremental sheet forming and process-machine interaction. His work focuses on improving the precision and reliability of Single Point Incremental Forming (SPIF), a flexible sheet metal process ideal for prototyping and small-batch production. Guines’ major contribution is the development of off-line compensation methods that correct tool path deviations caused by robot compliance. His most cited paper (2012, 99 citations) introduces a pioneering approach that couples Finite Element Analysis (FEA) of the forming process with an elastic model of the robot structure, enabling accurate force prediction and path correction without costly trial-and-error. He has also advanced the understanding of springback effects and material characterization for load prediction, particularly for titanium alloys used in biomedical and automotive applications. With over 140 total citations, Guines’ work bridges simulation and manufacturing, offering practical solutions for robotic forming of complex sheet metal parts. His research is essential reading for engineers and scientists developing flexible, robotized forming technologies.
