Study Notes
- The topic is classification of deforming processes, specifically metal forming.
Metal Forming Processes
- Divided into Bulk Metal Forming and Sheet Metal Forming.
- Bulk Metal Forming involves metal thickness greater than 6mm.
- Sheet Metal Forming involves metal thickness of 6mm or less.
- Bulk Metal Forming processes: Rolling, Forging, Extrusion, Drawing.
- Sheet Metal Forming processes: Shearing, Bending, Deep Drawing.
Types of Deformation
- Elastic Deformation: Reversible change where the material returns to its original shape when the force is removed.
- Plastic Deformation: Permanent change where the material remains deformed after the force is removed.
- Material Breaks: The material fractures or separates.
Metal Forming Processes According to Temperature
- Hot Working Processes involve the plastic deformation of metals above their recrystallization temperature.
- Hot working requires less force and allows for greater deformation, but results in a poor surface finish and inaccurate dimensions.
- Cold Working Processes involve the plastic deformation of metals below their recrystallization temperature.
- Cold working requires higher forces and heavier equipment but results in a good surface finish and accurate dimensions.
Rolling
- Rolling is a bulk deformation process that reduces the thickness or cross section of the work using compressive forces from two opposing rolls.
- Types of rolling based on workpiece geometry: Flat rolling and Shape rolling.
- Flat rolling reduces the thickness of a rectangular cross section.
- Shape rolling forms a square cross section into a specific shape like I-beam.
- Types of rolling based on rolling temperature: Hot rolling and Cold rolling.
- Hot rolling is used for large amounts of deformation.
- Cold rolling produces sheets with smooth surfaces and accurate dimensions.
Configuration of Rolling Mills
- Two-high mill pullover: The stock is returned to the entrance for further reduction.
- Two-high mill reversed: The work is passed back and forth through the rolls by reversing their direction of rotation.
- Three-high mill: Consists of upper and lower driven rolls with a middle roll rotating by friction.
- Four-high mill: Small diameter rolls (forming rolls) are supported by larger diameter backup rolls (supporting rolls).
- Cluster Mill: Each of the work rolls is supported by two backing rolls.
Applications of Rolling
- Used for making hollow seamless tubes and rods.
- Produces large length cross sections.
- Used in construction materials (roofing panels, partition beams, railroads).
- Used in the automotive industry for manufacturing parts.
- Used to make steel sheets and plates.
