    Study Notes

    Powder Metallurgy

    • Powder metallurgy is a process where metal powders are compacted and then sintered to form a solid component.
    • Initial step involves preparing metal powders. These powders are then compacted into a desired shape.
    • The compacted powder is then heated (sintered) at a specific temperature below the melting point of the metal, bonding the particles together.

    Turning

    • Turning is a machining process where a single-point cutting tool removes material from a rotating workpiece to create a cylindrical shape.
    • A single-point cutting tool is used to remove material.
    • The workpiece rotates, while the cutting tool moves along the workpiece's axis to produce the desired shape.
    • Starting diameter and chip are important features of the process.

    Facing

    • Facing is an operation in machining which generates a flat surface on the end of a workpiece.
    • A single-point cutting tool is used.
    • The workpiece rotates while the tool moves along the axis of rotation to create a flat face on the end of the workpiece.

    Threading

    • Threading is a machining process creating a helical groove on a workpiece to produce a thread.
    • A threading tool is used for producing threads.
    • The tool creates the desired helical groove.
    • Feed and rotation are important for the process.

    Slab Milling (Specifically, Conventional Milling)

    • Slab milling involves removing material from a flat surface using a milling cutter.
    • A milling cutter is used, and the workpiece is typically stationary.
    • The milling cutter removes material in a specific way.
    • The process produces flat surfaces.
    • Feed and Rotation are important aspects of the process.

    Deep Drawing

    • Deep drawing is a sheet metal forming process where a blank is shaped into a desired cup-like form by applying force.
    • A punch and die are used.
    • The blank is drawn into the die cavity by the punch.
    • The process results in the creation of a contoured part.
    • Punch, Die, and blank are important components of the process.
