: In this paper, the influence of ultrasonic vibration on the forming forces and surface quality of products formed using an ultrasonic-assisted incremental sheet forming (UISF) method was investigated and compared with an incremental sheet forming (ISF) method. The elements and parameters used for research include a sheet of Al 5052 aluminum alloy with thickness of 1.0 mm, a lathe with a feed rate of 70–130–225 rpm, and step size of 1.0–1.5–2.0 mm. The results show that ultrasonic vibration significantly reduces the forming forces, of which the main forming force F zmax is reduced by about 20%. Besides, the results also show that the surface quality of products formed via UISF is significantly improved compared to that formed by ISF.
