The springback phenomenon poses a significant challenge in the sheet metal bending process, adversely affecting the dimensional accuracy of the workpiece. This study presents a systematic comparison of the effectiveness of two modern techniques for springback reduction: low-frequency and ultrasonic vibration assistance, using the finite element method. The model was developed and validated against experimental data for three alloys: CK65, AA6061, and AA3105. The results demonstrated that both techniques effectively reduce springback compared to the conventional non-vibration base case. Quantitatively, low-frequency vibration alone achieved a significant 15% to 35% reduction in springback. However, ultrasonic vibration assistance, leveraging the acoustic softening mechanism, consistently outperformed low-frequency vibration, enhancing the springback reduction by an average of 54% to 117% compared to the low-frequency method. The performance gap between the two techniques widened for materials with higher yield strength. This research provides quantitative criteria for selecting the optimal vibration-assisted technique based on material type, required precision, and desired efficacy level
