The 19^th International Conference on Sheet Metal will be hosted by the Institute of Manufacturing Technology at the Friedrich-Alexander-Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg March 29^th - 31^st 2021.

For the time being we are preparing for a regular conference with physical attendance.
We are aware of the uncertainty the pandemic is giving to this plan. For that reason there are also preparations for a fully virtual conference being taken.
As regional differences cannot be predicted today, the alternative of a hybrid conference, allowing for a virtual participation for attendies with more rigid travel limitations and a physical presence if possivle is also considered and part of the preparation.

In any case, the conference will take place and the proceedings will appear and provide a scopus-visible, citeable publication.

We are looking forward to welcome you at ours.
