Questions and Answers

Which process is preferred when the strength of the part is important?

  • Casting
  • Rolling
  • Machining
  • Forging (correct)

What is the result of cold working on steel?

  • An increase in strength and hardness, and a decrease in ductility (correct)
  • A decrease in density and an increase in coarse grains
  • An increase in ductility and a decrease in strength
  • A change in the color of the steel

What is the primary goal of tempering?

  • To reduce the residual stresses and increase ductility (correct)
  • To facilitate machining and cold shaping
  • To produce a special structure
  • To increase the hardness of the steel
