UEET 601
  • Modern Manufacturing
  • Introduction to manufacturing processes

2
  • Metal Casting

3
  • Casting Process
  • Involves flow of molten metal into mold cavity -
    cavity has a shape of the finished part machined
    into it. Melt is allowed to cool and solidify.
    Final product removed from mold.
  • Important considerations
  • flow of melt into cavity
  • solidification and cooling of metal in the mold
  • influence of the type of mould material
  • Typical applications
  • Engine blocks/components, pump housings, brake
    rotors and drums, complex shapes

4
  • Flow of Melt in the Mold
  • Melt is poured into mold cavity through a POURING
    CUP
  • Melt flows through the GATING SYSTEM which
    consists of
  • Sprue- vertical channel through which melt flows
    downward
  • Runners - channels that carry melt from sprue
    into cavity
  • Gate - part of the runner through which melt
    enters cavity
  • Risers - reservoirs that supply melt and prevent
    shrinkage during solidification

5
Casting Processes
  • Expendable Mold
  • Sand casting
  • Shell molding
  • Lost foam process
  • Lost wax (investment casting)
  • Permanent Mold
  • Die casting
  • Centrifugal casting

6
Forming and Shaping Processes
7
  • Forming Processes - involve processes that
    deform the initial material plastically into a
    final material - sometimes through various stages
  • In both processes, product can be discrete (e.g.
    a connecting rod) or continuous (e.g. sheet
    metal)
  • Workability - refers to bulk deformation
    processes. Forces applied are predominantly
    compressive (e.g. forging). To be studied
    Rolling and Forging
  • Formability - refers to sheet forming processes
    in which forces applied are predominantly tensile
    (e.g. tube drawing). To be studied Extrusion
    and Sheet Metal Forming

8
Rolling Processes
9
  • Introduction
  • Process that reduces thickness or changes the
    cross section of a long work-piece by application
    of compressive forces through a set of rolls.
  • Can be done when the workpiece is cold - COLD
    ROLLING or when hot (above recrystallization
    temperature) - HOT ROLLING

Rolls
Work-piece
10
  • Flat Rolling
  • A sheet or block or strip stock is introduced
    between rollers and then compressed and squeezed.
    Thickness is reduced. The amount of strain
    (deformation) introduced determines the hardness,
    strength and other material properties of the
    finished product.
  • Used to produce sheet metals predominantly

11
  • Other Rolling Processes
  • Shape or Profile Rolling - Straight, long
    structural parts produced with various cross
    sectional shapes. Profile roles or roll
    combinations used to achieve this
  • Thread Rolling - used for making external
    threads. A die with the thread profile, is
    pressed on to a rotating work-piece.

12
Forging Processes
13
  • Introduction
  • Forging - metal is heated and is shaped by
    plastic deformation by suitably applying
    compressive force hammer blows using a power
    hammer or a press.
  • Forgings yield parts that have high strength to
    weight ratio - thus are often used in the design
    of aircraft frame members.
  • A Forged metal can result in the following -
  • Decrease in height, increase in section - open
    die forging
  • Increase length, decrease cross-section, called
    drawing out.
  • Decrease length, increase in cross-section on a
    portion of the length - upsetting
  • Change length, change cross-section, by squeezing
    in closed impression dies - closed die forging.
    This results in favorable grain flow for strong
    parts

15
Types of forging processes
  • Open Die Forgings / Hand Forgings
  • E.g. traditional blacksmith
  • Heading - Upsetting process that increases
    cross-section by compressing a portion of the
    length (hot or cold)
  • this is used in making heads on bolts and
    fasteners, valves and other similar parts

16
Types of forging processes
  • Impression Die and Closed Die Forgings
  • Example alloy ream
  • Coining

17
Extrusion and Drawing Processes
18
  • Extrusion
  • Process by which long straight metal parts can be
    produced.
  • Cross-sections that can be produced vary from
    solid round, rectangular, to L shapes, T shapes,
    tubes and many other different types
  • Done by squeezing metal in a closed cavity
    through a die using either a mechanical or
    hydraulic press.
  • Extrusion produces compressive and shear forces
    in the stock.
  • No tension is produced, which makes high
    deformation possible without tearing the metal.
  • Can be done Hot or cold

19
  • Direct or Forward - round billet forced through
    die opening
  • Cold Extrusion Cold extrusion is the process
    done at room temperature or slightly elevated
    temperatures. This process can be used for most
    materials-subject to designing robust enough
    tooling that can withstand the stresses created
    by extrusion. Examples of the metals that can be
    extruded are lead, tin, aluminum alloys, copper,
    titanium, molybdenum, vanadium, steel. Examples
    of parts that are cold extruded are collapsible
    tubes, aluminum cans, cylinders, gear blanks. The
    advantages of cold extrusion are
  • No oxidation takes place.
  • Good mechanical properties due to severe cold
    working as long as the temperatures created are
    below the re-crystallization temperature.
  • Good surface finish with the use of proper
    lubricants.
  • Hot Extrusion Hot extrusion is done at fairly
    high temperatures, approximately 50 to 75 of
    the melting point of the metal. The pressures can
    range from 35-700 MPa (5076 - 101,525 psi). Due
    to the high temperatures and pressures and its
    detrimental effect on the die life as well as
    other components, good lubrication is necessary.
    Oil and graphite work at lower temperatures,
    whereas at higher temperatures glass powder is
    used.
  • Typical parts produced by extrusions are trim
    parts used in automotive and construction
    applications, window frame members, railings,
    aircraft structural parts.
  • most common of the extrusion processes in
    industry
  • the billet is upsetted in the container, so that
    it assumes the bore diameter of the container
  • it is then pressed by the stem through the die
  • there is relative motion between block and
    container - FRICTION. Use lubricants

20
  • Indirect Extrusion - Reverse or backward
    extrusion- Die moves towards billet
  • Billet also upsetted first in the container
  • a dummy block used to lock the container from one
    side
  • a hollow stem pushes die into the billet OR dummy
    block and container may push billet through die
    and hollow container (smaller friction)

21
  • Hydrostatic Extrusion - billet is smaller,
    chamber filled with a fluid -HYDROSTATIC FLUID
  • container space is sealed
  • pressure is transmitted by ram (or stem)
  • during extrusion the does not touch the billet
  • less friction between billet and container

22
  • Impact Extrusion - Blank or slug is extruded
    backward by impact force to form a thin walled
    tube
  • used for hollow shapes
  • usually performed on a high-speed mechanical
    press - punch descends at a high speed and
    strikes the blank, extruding it upwards
  • performed cold considerable heating results from
    the high-speed deformation
  • restricted to softer metals such as lead, tin,
    aluminum and copper
  • used to produce medicine and toothpaste tubes

23
  • Drawing
  • X section of material reduced by pulling through
    die
  • Similar to extrusion except material is under
    TENSILE force since it is pulled through the die
  • Various types of sections - round, square,
    profiles
  • Tube Drawing - Utilizes a special tool called a
    MANDREL is inserted in a tube hollow section to
    draw a seamless tube
  • Mandrel and die reduce both the tube's outside
    diameter and its wall thickness. The mandrel also
    makes the tube's inside surface smoother

24
Sheet Metal Forming
25
  • Introduction
  • Involves methods in which sheet metal is cut into
    required dimensions and shape and/or forming by
    stamping, drawing, or pressing to the final shape
  • A special class of metal forming where the
    thickness of the piece of material is small
    compared to the other dimensions
  • Cutting into shape involve shear forces
  • Forming Processes involve tensile stresses

26
  • Shearing
  • Process for cutting sheet metal to size out of a
    larger stock
  • Shears are used as the preliminary step in
    preparing stock for stamping processes, or
    smaller blanks for CNC presses.
  • Sheet is cut by subjecting it to a shear stress

28
  • Bending
  • Bending is a process by which metal can be
    deformed by plastically deforming the material
    and changing its shape
  • Flexible different shapes can be produced
  • Standard die sets can be used to produce a wide
    variety of shapes

29
(No Transcript)
30
  • Other Bending Processes
  • Press brake bending - used to form for example
    seam joints
  • Roll bending
  • Beading
  • Flanging, dimpling, hemming

31
  • Deep Drawing
  • In deep drawing, a blank of sheet metal is
    restrained at the edges by BLANKHOLDER, and the
    middle section is forced by a punch into a die to
    stretch the metal into a cup shaped drawn part.
    This drawn part can be circular, rectangular or
    otherwise

32
  • Stamping
  • Variety of operations e.g. punching, blanking,
    embosing, coining

33
  • Others
  • Roll bending
  • Beading
  • Flanging
  • Roll forming
  • Tube bending and forming

34
Processing of Powder Metals, Ceramics and Glass
35
  • Powder Metallurgy (P/M)
  • Process by which metal parts are made by
    compacting fine metal powders in a die and
    heating without melting (SINTERING)
  • Produces mostly NET shapes
  • Most commonly used metal powders are iron,
    copper, aluminum, tin, nickel, titanium, and
    refractory alloys
  • Major attraction of P/M is the ability to
    fabricate high quality parts with complex shapes
    to close tolerances in an economical manner
    highly porous parts, precision parts of high
    performance as well as composite materials can be
    produced by P/M
  • Process consists of
  • 1-Powder production 2-Blending 3-Compaction
  • 4-Sintering 5-Finishing operations

36
  • Applications of P/M
  • Tungsten lamp filaments, dental fillings, oil
    less bearings, automotive transmission gears,
    electrical contacts, orthopedic implants, high
    temperature filters, aircraft brake pads and
    landing gear, impellers in APUs

37
  • Processing of Ceramics
  • Generally procedure involves
  • Crushing/grinding (Comminution) material into
    very fine particles
  • Mixing with additives to impart certain
    characteristics
  • Shaping
  • Drying
  • Firing

38
  • Forming and Shaping of Glass
  • Process involves -
  • Melting
  • Shaping in Molds or other devices
  • Strength improvements obtained by chemical and
    thermal treatments or by laminating with a thin
    plastic (Auto glass)
  • Types of Products
  • - sheet or plate
  • - rods and tubes
  • - discrete products (e.g. bottles)
  • - glass fibers (for composite reinforcement)

39
  • Methods of Processing -
  • a) Flat sheet plate
  • Drawing - molten glass drawn through a pair of
    rolls
  • Rolling - molten glass squeezed between rolls
  • Float method - molten glass floats into a bath of
    molten tin under controlled atmosphere then
    drawn out by a set of rolls. Smooth surface
    finish
  • b) Tubes and Rods -
  • Tube -Molten glass wrapped around a mandrel
    (hollow or conical) and drawn by a set of rolls
    air is blown through the mandrel to prevent tube
    wall from collapsing
  • Rod - Similar except no mandrel.

40
  • c) Glass Fibers -
  • Long fibers - drawing through multiple orifices
    in heated platinum plates at high speeds
  • Short fibers - molten glass fed into rotating
    head - CENTRIFUGAL SPRAYING
  • d) Discrete parts - Several methods.
  • Blowing - used to manufacture thin walled
    products such as bottles or flasks
  • Pressing - Molten glass pressed into shape in a
    mold
  • Centrifugal casting or spinning -centrifugal
    force forces molten glass onto rotating mold
    walls and cools into shape

41
Processing of Polymers and Composite Materials
42
Polymers
  • 1. Casting molten polymer allowed to solidify
    inside a mold cavity to acquire the desired
    shape. For thermosets, additional curing may be
    necessary. Examples thermoplastic sheets
    plates thermoset lenses, gears
  • 2. Blow Molding- used to make thermoplastic
    bottles and hollow sections. Starting material is
    a a round heated solid-bottom hollow tube
    preform. Preform inserted into two die halves and
    air is blown inside to complete the process

43
  • Blow molding process

44
  • 3. Compression Molding thermoset granules are
    compressed in a heated mold to shape required.
    Examples plugs, pot handles, dishware

45
  • 4. Transfer Molding similar to compression
    molding except thermosetting charge is forced
    into a heated mold cavity using a ram or plunger.
    Examples electrical switchgear, structural parts
  • 5. Cold Molding charge is pressed into shape
    while cold then cured in an oven. Economical but
    usually poor surface finish
  • 6. Injection Molding Most widely used process.
    Suitable for high production of thermoplastics.
    Charge fed from a hopper is heated in a barrel
    and forced under high pressure into a mold
    cavity. Several types. Variety of parts can be
    made.

46
  • Example of an injection molding system

47
  • 7. Extrusion Similar to injection molding
    except long uniform sections are produced e.g.
    pipes, rods, profiles

48
  • 8. Thermoforming Sheet material heated to
    working temperature then formed into desired
    shape by vacuum suction or pressure. Suitable for
    large items such as bath tubs

49
  • 9. Rotational Molding used to form hollow
    seamless products such as bins. Molten charge is
    rotated in a mold in two perpendicular axes
    simultaneously, or rotated while tilting.
  • 10. Foam Molding Foaming agent is combined with
    the charge to release gas, or air is blown into
    mixture while forming. Used to make foams. Amount
    of gas determines the density

50
  • 11. Others-
  • -Calendaring molten plastic forced between two
    counter-rotating rolls to produce very thin
    sheets e.g. polyethylene sheets
  • -Spinning modified form of extrusion in which
    very thin fibers or yarns are produced
  • -Machining material removal process such as
    drilling, turning, thread cutting. E.g. nylon
    fasteners. In general thermoplastics have poor
    machinability.

51
  • Composite Materials
  • Processing requires care and several methods
  • Safety and environmental concern over the dust
    generated from particles
  • For good bonding with matrix, fibers are surface
    treated by impregnation - SIZING
  • When impregnation is carried out as a separate
    step, several types of partially cured sheets can
    be produced
  • Prepreg - Reinforcing material aligned and
    impregnated with resin prior to the molding
    process and cured by the application of heat.
    Example F14 horizontal stabilizer.

52
  • Sheet Molding Compound (SMC) - continuous strands
    of fibers cut into short strands then deposited
    in random directions over layer of polymer
    resin., a second layer of resin deposited on top
    and material pressed between rolls. Allowed to
    mature under controlled temperature and humidity
  • Bulk molding compounds (BMC) - material is bulky
    or shaped like a billet, but processing similar
    to SMC
  • Thick Molding compound (TMC) - combines
    characteristics of BMC and SMC.
  • Methods of Processing include Molding, Filament
    Winding, Pultrusion, Pulforming

53
  • Molding - Several types of molding processes
  • Compression molding - composite material
    compressed under heat in a mold
  • Vacuum-bag molding - prepregs laid in a mold to
    form desired shape, then covered with plastic
    bag. Pressure to form is obtained by applying a
    vacuum to the bag
  • Contact molding - Uses a single mold to make
    shapes like boats. Lay-up of prepreg may be
    manual using rollers and brushes - HAND LAY-UP or
    by SPRAY LAY-UP
  • Resin Transfer Molding - Resin mix forced into
    mold cavity that is filled with reinforcement,
    through a pump
  • Transfer/injection Molding- combines transfer
    and injection molding in an automated process

54
  • Filament Winding- involves winding a
    resin-saturated strand of reinforcing filament
    around a rotating mandrel until desired thickness
    is obtained. Used for axisymmetric parts - pipes,
    storage tanks asymetric parts - aircraft
    fuselage, propeller blades

55
  • Pultrusion- fibers are brought together over
    rollers, dipped in resin and drawn through a
    heated die. A continuous cross section composite
    part emerges on the other side. Very applicable
    for long shapes with uniform sections such as
    rods, or even pipes

56
  • Pulforming- used to make continuos products not
    necessarily having uniform cross section. After
    pulling through a polymer bath, composite is
    cured inside to heated die halves into required
    shape.

57
Rapid Prototyping
58
Prototype is a new examinable product, usually
still under development required for tests and
evaluation Rapid Prototyping is a new technology
which speeds up the process of product
development Usually, new physical model can be
built from a CAD file in a matter of hours There
are three basic types Subtractive Additive Vir
tual
59
Subtractive Processes
  • Uses computer based technologies in design,
    drafting and manufacturing to speed up process of
    the production of prototype
  • Requires software that can translate CAD data
    into format usable for manufacturing and CNC
    software
  • Used only when shape verification of prototype is
    needed - a soft material like wax is used to
    manufacture the prototype by any conventional or
    non-conventional method

60
Additive Processes
  • Parts are built in layers (or slices)
  • Five basic steps-
  • Create a CAD model of the design
  • Convert the CAD model to STL (stereolithography)
    format
  • Slice the CAD model to STL format
  • Model constructed one layer on top of another
  • Cleaning and finishing operations
  • There are several types

61
Types of RR processes
  • Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM)
  • Stereolithography
  • Selective Laser Sintering
  • Solid-Base Curing (Solid Ground Curing)
  • Laminated Object Manufacturing (LOM)

62
  • Limited design restrictions -- can produce any
    thing that can be designed on a CAD application
  • Automatic scaling -- accurately scales part to
    fit inside machine production space
  • Disadvantages
  • Limited material -- works with only a few
    plastics and ceramics
  • Limited size
  • High Cost of actual machine

63
Virtual Prototyping
  • Uses advanced software to render CAD design
    features for simulation and analysis (no
    prototype built)
  • Examples - Boeing 777 production - there was no
    prototype built.

64
Applications of Rapid Prototyping
  • Production of finished items - only viable for
    polymeric materials
  • Shape verification of models
  • Simulation and analysis of products during design
    stage
  • Rapid tooling - RP models used as a pattern to
    create a mold quickly or uses the RP process
    directly to fabricate a tool for a limited volume
    of prototypes.

65
Material Removal Processes
66
Introduction
  • Involves shaping of parts by material removal
    process
  • Can range from a simple operation such as sawing
    off a riser to complex operations involving
    Computer controlled machines
  • Categories-
  • Cutting -single point or multi-point tool
  • Abrasive processes
  • Advanced processes - ECM, EDM, EBM, LBM, e.t.c.

67
Common Types of Metal Cutting Processes
  • Turning Milling Drilling

68
Tool Materials
  • Carbon and Medium Alloy Steels
  • High Speed Steel
  • Carbides
  • Ceramics (cermets)
  • Diamonds

69
  • Cutting Fluids
  • Essentially a coolant or lubricant or both
  • Cutting fluids accomplish the following-
  • Reduce friction and wear - improve tool life and
    surface finish
  • Reduce forces and hence power for cutting
  • Cool work-tool interface, thus reducing thermal
    distortion
  • Wash away chips
  • Protects machined surface from corroding
  • Types of coolants - Oils, emulsions,
    synthetics, vegetable oils

70
Advanced Machining Processes
71
Introduction
  • Advanced machining methods - also referred to as
    non-traditional machining methods
  • Have been developed to complement traditional
    machining processes (TM) in situations where it
    is not feasible to use TM methods -
  • work material too hard or brittle
  • workpiece too flexible to hold
  • part shape too complex
  • surface finish and dimensional requirements too
    rigorous
  • temperatures and residual stresses involved
    undesirable

72
Common Types
  • Chemical Machining - Selective chemical
    attack/etching on a metallic material surface
    using selected chemical reagents or ETCHANTS
  • Photo-Chemical Machining (PCM)- also known as
    Photo Etching - used to produce precision parts
    and decorative items, mainly sheets and foils.
  • Laser Beam Machining -source of energy is a laser
    beam

73
Common Types
  • Electrochemical machining (ECM) - Reverse of
    electroplating in which metal is selectively
    removed from the anode by electrolytic action of
    a specially shaped cathode tool
  • Electric discharge machining (EDM), also called
    electrodischarge or spark-erosion machining -
  • EDM works by eroding material in the path of
    electrical discharges that form an arc between a
    shaped electrode tool and the workpiece.
  • Workpiece is immersed in a dielectric fluid which
    also acts to flush away debris

74
Welding and Joining Processes
75
Introduction
  • Joining processes fall into three different
    categories
  • welding
  • adhesive bonding
  • mechanical fastening
  • Welding processes can be divided into three
    categories
  • fusion welding
  • solid state welding
  • non-fusion welding

76
Fusion Welding Processes
  • Fusion Welding -
  • heat is applied to melt metal locally at joint
  • the joint is allowed to solidify and fuse
  • source of heat can be an electrical arc or a
    flame
  • filler material may be required to fill the gap.

77
Types of fusion welding processes
  • 1. Oxyfuel (gas) welding
  • Source of heat is a gaseous fuel combined with O2
  • Fuels -
  • acetylene (oxyacetylene welding - the most
    common)
  • others (mostly used for cutting - propane,
    hydrogen, MAPP, propylene, natural gas)
  • when mixed together in correct proportions within
    a hand-held torch or blowpipe, a relatively hot
    flame is produced with a temperature of about
    3,200 deg.C.

  • Soldered joint is not as strong as a brazed or
    welded joint
  • Soldered assemblies must be kept at low operating
    temperatures to prevent the soldered joint from
    failing
