thick
7 What is fusion weldingThe metal at the joint is heated to a molten state and
then it is allowed to solidify Pressure is not applied
during the welding process
(Eg) Gas Arc welding
8 What is the minimum distance maintained between
successive spot welding and whybull The acceptable minimum distance is 16 times to that
of thickness of metal to be welded
bull If the minimum distance not maintained then shunt
current will flow through the already welded spot
and reduces the quality of welding 9 Write short notes on transferred and non-transferred
arc in plasma arc welding
Non-transferred arc process The arc is formed
between the electrode(-) and the water cooled
constricting nozzle(+) Arc plasma comes out of the
nozzle as a flame
Transferred arc process The arc is formed between
the electrode(-) and the work piece(+) In other words
arc is transferred from the electrode to the work piece
10 Write down the types of flamesi Neutral Flame

5 In four high roll mills smaller diameter mills as
working mills ndash why
A small roll diameter is advantageous because less roll
is in contact with the material which results in a lower
force and power requirement
The problem with a small roll is a reduction of stiffness
which is overcome using backup rolls These backup
rolls are larger and contact the back side of the smaller
rolls

11 Explain piercing operationIt is a process by which a hole is cut (or torn) in metal It is
different from punching in that piercing does not generate a
slug Instead the metal is pushed back to form a jagged
flange on the back side of the hole A pierced hole looks
somewhat like a bullet hole in a sheet of metal
12 Why it is necessary to provide proper clearance
between the punch and die in a shearing operationIt allows fracture to meet when break occurs It depends on
type of material Thickness of material Hardness of material
and type of operation
13 Advantage of hydro forming techniqueDeeper draws are obtained compared to other methods It is
due to the pressure around the rubber membrane forces thecup against the punch

Perforating is a piercing operation that involves
punching a large number of closely spaced holes
Fine blanking is a specialized form of blanking where
there is no fracture zone when shearing This is
achieved by compressing the whole part and then an
upper and lower punch extract the blankThis allows th
process to hold very tight tolerances and perhaps
eliminate secondary operations

5 In four high roll mills smaller diameter mills as
working mills ndash why
A small roll diameter is advantageous because less roll
is in contact with the material which results in a lower
force and power requirement
The problem with a small roll is a reduction of stiffness
which is overcome using backup rolls These backup
rolls are larger and contact the back side of the smaller
rolls

11 Explain piercing operationIt is a process by which a hole is cut (or torn) in metal It is
different from punching in that piercing does not generate a
slug Instead the metal is pushed back to form a jagged
flange on the back side of the hole A pierced hole looks
somewhat like a bullet hole in a sheet of metal

between the punch and die in a shearing operationIt allows fracture to meet when break occurs It depends on
type of material Thickness of material Hardness of material
and type of operation
13 Advantage of hydro forming techniqueDeeper draws are obtained compared to other methods It is

there is no fracture zone when shearing This is
achieved by compressing the whole part and then an
upper and lower punch extract the blankThis allows th
process to hold very tight tolerances and perhaps
eliminate secondary operations

5 What is super plastic forming operationVery fine grains are obtained within certain temperature
ranges amp at low strain rates These alloys can be formed into
complex shapes by super plastic forming Zinc Aluminum
and Titanium has super plastic behavior
6 What are the advantages of rubber pad forming
process
7 List any four components manufactured using
drawing methodWires Tubes to make hydraulic systems and to get
rectangular hexagonal and square shapes
8 What are the common explosives used in explosive
forming method
9 Define the term formability
The capability of sheet metal to be deformed into desiredshape is called formability
10 What do you mean by minimum bend radiusWhile bending outer surface in tension and inner surface is
in compression The minimum radius to which the material
can be bent known as minimum bend radius
11 Explain piercing operationIt is a process by which a hole is cut (or torn) in metal It is
different from punching in that piercing does not generate a
slug Instead the metal is pushed back to form a jagged
flange on the back side of the hole A pierced hole looks
somewhat like a bullet hole in a sheet of metal
12 Why it is necessary to provide proper clearance
between the punch and die in a shearing operationIt allows fracture to meet when break occurs It depends on
type of material Thickness of material Hardness of material
and type of operation
13 Advantage of hydro forming techniqueDeeper draws are obtained compared to other methods It is
due to the pressure around the rubber membrane forces thecup against the punch
14 What is limiting drawing ratioThe volume of material removed from the work per unit
volume of wear is known as drawing ratio
15 Define embossing
This is a process of making raised or projected design
on the surface of the metal with its corresponding relief
on other side
Combination of drawing and bending
16 What is lancing operation that is done on sheet
metalsA shearing operation that cuts an interior section of the
metal without removing the section A lancing operatioleaves an opened metal tab
Notching- A shearing operation that removes a section
from the outer edge of the metal strip or part
Perforating is a piercing operation that involves
punching a large number of closely spaced holes
Fine blanking is a specialized form of blanking where
there is no fracture zone when shearing This is
achieved by compressing the whole part and then an
upper and lower punch extract the blankThis allows th
process to hold very tight tolerances and perhaps
eliminate secondary operations

5 What is super plastic forming operationVery fine grains are obtained within certain temperature
ranges amp at low strain rates These alloys can be formed into
complex shapes by super plastic forming Zinc Aluminum
and Titanium has super plastic behavior
6 What are the advantages of rubber pad forming
process
7 List any four components manufactured using
drawing methodWires Tubes to make hydraulic systems and to get
rectangular hexagonal and square shapes
8 What are the common explosives used in explosive
forming method
9 Define the term formability
The capability of sheet metal to be deformed into desiredshape is called formability
10 What do you mean by minimum bend radiusWhile bending outer surface in tension and inner surface is
in compression The minimum radius to which the material
can be bent known as minimum bend radius
11 Explain piercing operationIt is a process by which a hole is cut (or torn) in metal It is
different from punching in that piercing does not generate a
slug Instead the metal is pushed back to form a jagged
flange on the back side of the hole A pierced hole looks
somewhat like a bullet hole in a sheet of metal
12 Why it is necessary to provide proper clearance
between the punch and die in a shearing operationIt allows fracture to meet when break occurs It depends on
type of material Thickness of material Hardness of material
and type of operation
13 Advantage of hydro forming techniqueDeeper draws are obtained compared to other methods It is
due to the pressure around the rubber membrane forces thecup against the punch
14 What is limiting drawing ratioThe volume of material removed from the work per unit
volume of wear is known as drawing ratio
15 Define embossing
This is a process of making raised or projected design
on the surface of the metal with its corresponding relief
on other side
Combination of drawing and bending
16 What is lancing operation that is done on sheet
metalsA shearing operation that cuts an interior section of the
metal without removing the section A lancing operatioleaves an opened metal tab
Notching- A shearing operation that removes a section
from the outer edge of the metal strip or part
Perforating is a piercing operation that involves
punching a large number of closely spaced holes
Fine blanking is a specialized form of blanking where
there is no fracture zone when shearing This is
achieved by compressing the whole part and then an
upper and lower punch extract the blankThis allows th
process to hold very tight tolerances and perhaps
eliminate secondary operations
