Therefore, closedloop controlled forming processes are considered to have the potential to reduce tolerances on desired product properties, resulting in consistent qualities. The achievement of associated increases in robustness and reliability is linked to enormous requirements, which in particular include the inline recording of the product properties to be controlled and the subsequent adaptation of the process control through the targeted derivation of manipulated variables. The present paper uses the example of an air bending process to show how the bending angle can be controlled camera-based and how springback can be compensated within a stroke by recording force signals and subsequently predicting the loaded bending angle using machine learning algorithms. The results show that the combined application of camera-based control and machine learning assisted springback compensation leads to highly accurate bending angles, whereby the results strongly depend on the machine learning algorithms and associated data transformation processes used.  \nKeywords Closed-loop control · Deep learning · Sheet metal forming  \nIntroduction  \nUncertainty plays a decisive role in metal forming and signiﬁcantly inﬂuences product quality and its variance. [1] Manufacturers strive for consistent quality and thus repeatable production of selected product properties. For this reason, manufacturers try to keep their processes, semi-ﬁnished products, tools and associated environmental inﬂuences as stationary as possible over the production time, which leads to reliable products but not to robust processes. Unavoidable uncertainties resulting, for example, from tool wear [2], machine stiffness [3] or variations in semi-ﬁnished product properties [4] must either be monitored individually or, if not taken into account, are reﬂected in ﬂuctuating product properties [5] . A promising approach that has been increasingly explored in academic research in recent years is aimed at closed-loop control of product properties [6] . The basic idea  \nB Dirk Alexander Molitor [dirk.molitor@ptu.tu-darmstadt.de](dirk.molitor@ptu.tu-darmstadt.de)  \n1 Institute for Production Engineering and Forming Machines, Technical University of Darmstadt, Otto-Berndt-Straße 2, Darmstadt D-64287, Germany  \nof this approach is to equip forming machines and corresponding tools with sensors and actuators, whereby product properties can be recorded stroke-by-stroke or inline and subsequently manipulated. However, the realisation of such closed-loop controls is highly challenging. Product properties must be sensed or observed with sufﬁcient frequency and models between the drives ofthe machine and product properties must be available that allow a controlled manipulation.  \nThe quality of these closed-loop controls is determined by their accuracy and ﬂexibility. The increasing use of servo presses with freely programmable drive motion paths [7] or task space controlled ram movements [8] has signiﬁcantly increased the accuracy and ﬂexibility of forming processes in recent years . For example, Groche et al. investigate ina deep-drawing process on a 3D Servo Press how multiple degrees of freedom of the press can be used to manipulate wrinkles and how different control strategies inﬂuence the process [9] .
