About
Giuseppe Ingarao is a leading researcher in sustainable manufacturing, with a focus on reducing the environmental impact of metal forming processes. His work centers on energy efficiency and life-cycle assessment in production engineering, particularly for incremental forming technologies. Ingarao’s major contributions include pioneering analyses of electric energy consumption in single point incremental forming (SPIF), as demonstrated in his highly cited 2013 paper (45 citations), which systematically quantifies energy use in this flexible forming method. He has also explored the energy footprint of robotic SPIF systems, highlighting the often-overlooked environmental costs of discrete part manufacturing. By integrating process mechanics with environmental metrics, Ingarao has helped establish a framework for greener production, showing that even niche forming techniques can be optimized for lower carbon impact. His work is essential for researchers and engineers seeking to align manufacturing innovation with sustainability goals, making him a key voice in the transition toward eco-conscious industrial practices.
