Abstract
Hindustan Machine Tools is the major industry of the modem era because of its wide
application in automobile, aerodynamic sector etc. For the manufacturing of machine
tools highly equipped and modern machinery are develop in 21st century like CNC’s,
which have been illustrated in the project report. The process of making a grinding
machine generally requires study of materials and its behavior in presence of heat, a
overview of material used in making a grinding machine is given. In the steps for
manufacturing a class first grinding machine the important aspects is reading the
drawing and carry out the corresponding operation to get the desired grinding
machine, in the report a job piece 305 E outer is analyzed with its cycle time and
many such calculations are carried out
Last but not the least, rather the most prominent think being the quality control aspect
on industry and this enable an individual or organization to keep a check over the
manufacturing material this aspect have been discussed in the culmination chapter.

FLASKS
1. The common flasks are also called as containers which are used in foundry
department as mold boxes, crucibles and ladles.
MOULDING BOXES
1. Mounding boxes are used in sand mauling following two types:-
2. Open mounding boxes.
3. Closed mounding boxes.
CRUCIBLE
1. Crucibles are made from graphite or steel shell lined with suitable refractory
material like fire clay.
2. They are commonly named as metal melting pots.
3. The raw material or charge is broken into small pieces and placed in them.
4. They are then placed in pit furnaces which are coke-fired.
5. In oil- fired tilting furnaces, they form an integral part of the furnace itself and
the charge is put into them while they are in position.
6. After melting of metals in crucibles, they are taken out and received in
crucible handle.
7. Pouring of molten is generally done directly by them instead of transferring
the molten metal to ladles.
8. But in the case of an oil-fired furnace, the molten metal is first received in a
ladle and then poured into the molds.
LADDLE
48
1. It is similar in shape to the crucible which is also made from graphite or steel
shell lined with suitable refractory material like fire clay.
2. It is commonly used to receive molten metal from the melting furnace and
pour the same into the mold cavity.
3. Its size is designated by its capacity.
4. Small hand shank ladles are used by a single foundry personal and are
provided with only one handle.
5. It may be available in different capacities up to 20 kg.
6. Medium and large size ladles are provided with handles on both sides to be
handled by two foundry personals.
7. They are available in various sizes with their capacity varying from 30 kg to
150 kg.
8. Extremely large sizes, with capacities ranging from 250 kg to 1000 kg, are
found in crane ladles.
9. Geared crane ladles can hold even more than 1000 kg of molten metal.
10. The handling of ladles can be mechanized for good pouring control and
ensuring better safety for foundry personals workers.
11. All the ladles consist of an outer casing made of steel or plate bent in proper
shape and then welded.
12. Inside this casing, a refractory lining is provided.
13. At its top, the casing is shaped to have a controlled and well directed flow of
molten metal.
14. They are commonly used to transport molten metal from furnace to mold.
POWER OPERATED EQUIPMENTS
1. Power operated equipment’s used in foundry department are given below:-
2. Mounding Machines.
3. Sand Slingers.
4. Core making & core baking equipment’s.
5. Power riddles.
6. Mechanical conveyors.
7. Sand Mixers.
INDUCTION FURNANCE
49
1. Induction Furnace is used for melting the metal.
2. There is tilting head in furnace for pour out the melting metal.
3. To get more special properties following metal is added.
4. Ferro Manganese.
5. Ferro Silicon.
6. Ferro chromium.
7. Carbon (as required).
8. To remove slag from the melting metal silica sand is mixed in the furnace.
9. To get more fluidity of metal elino cline mixed in the melted metal.
