Study Notes
Past ME Board Questions (Elements)
- Question 1: Heating metal above the transformation range (1300°F to 1350°F) and slowly cooling it to soften the metal for machining is known as annealing.
- Question 2: Heating above the transformation temperature and quenching in oil increases metal hardness, this process is called hardening.
- Question 3: Reheating below the transformation range, followed by controlled cooling, precisely adjusts metal properties. This is tempering.
- Question 4: Heating to a subcritical temperature (1100°F to 1300°F) and holding at that temperature reduces internal stresses. This is annealing.
- Question 5: Heating above the transformation range, then cooling in still air below that range, produces a uniform metal structure, which is normalizing.
- Question 6: A drilling machine creates holes in metal using a drill bit.
- Question 7: A metalworking machine used to remove metal from a workpiece using a tool is a broaching machine.
- Question 8: A tool grinder, using an abrasive wheel, sharpens or shapes tools.
- Question 9: A boring machine is a machine tool used to enlarge a hole using an adjustable cutting tool with only one cutting edge.
- Question 10: A shaper is a machine tool used to cut metal parts of various lengths using a reciprocating blade.
- Question 11: A milling machine is a machine tool used to create various shapes on metal parts.
- Question 12: A planer is a machine tool for creating flat surfaces for large, heavy, or unwieldy work pieces.
- Question 13: A broaching machine is a machine tool used to finish internal or external surfaces, like holes or keyways, using a broach tool.
- Question 14: Brass is an alloy of copper and zinc.
- Question 15: Bronze is an alloy of copper and tin.
- Question 16: Forging is a metalworking process that uses pressure to shape hot metal using a hammer or press.
- Question 17: Forging is a metal-forming process that uses intense pressure (such as a press or hammer) using the hot plastic metal to get the desired shape.
- Question 18: SAE 1020 is a manganese steel with 0.2% carbon.
- Question 19: A milling machine uses a multi-toothed revolving cutter to remove metal.
- Question 20: A lathe is a machine tool in which the workpiece, mounted on a revolving axis, is acted on by a cutting tool moving parallel to the axis.
- Question 21: A planer is a machine tool used to machine flat surfaces on large or heavy work pieces.
- Question 22: Grinding shapes a piece of metal using an abrasive wheel.
- Question 23: A caliper is a tool for measuring diameters.
- Question 24: Dial gauges and dial indicators measure sizes, alignment, and trueness of mechanical parts and machine surfaces.
- Question 25: The ability of a material to be severely deformed without breaking.
- Question 26: Marking points, circles, arcs and straight lines on surfaces, a shop term.
- Question 27: Reaming is an operation of sizing and finishing a hole.
- Question 28: Countersinking creates a cone-shaped enlargement of a hole.
- Question 29: Boring enlarge a hole by means of an adjustable cutting tool with only a single cutting edge.
- Question 30: A pitch circle is a line that intersects the gear teeth, a circle through the points of contact between meshed gear teeth. ...
