  • Rolling Process Bulk Deformation Forming
    Rolling Process Bulk deformation forming (rolling) Rolling is the process of reducing the thickness (or changing the cross-section) of a long workpiece by compressive forces applied through a set of rolls. This is the most widely used metal working process because it lends itself high production and close control of the final product. Bulk deformation forming (rolling) Bulk deformation forming (rolling) Rolling typically starts with a rectangular ingots and results in rectangular Plates (t > 6 mm), sheet (t < 3 mm), rods, bars, I- beams, rails etc Figure: Rotating rolls reduce the thickness of the incoming ingot Flat rolling practice Hot rolled round rods (wire rod) are used as the starting material for rod and wire drawing operations The product of the first hot-rolling operation is called a bloom A bloom usually has a square cross-section, at least 150 mm on the side, a rolling into structural shapes such as I-beams and railroad rails . Slabs are rolled into plates and sheets. Billets usually are square and are rolled into various shapes Hot rolling is the most common method of refining the cast structure of ingots and billets to make primary shape. Hot rolled round rods (wire rod) are used as the starting material for rod and wire drawing operations Bars of circular or hexagonal cross-section like Ibeams, channels, and rails are produced in great quantity by hoe rolling with grooved rolls. Cold rolling is most often a secondary forming process that is used to make bar, sheet, strip and foil with superior surface finish and dimensional tolerances.

  • The Ductility Number Nd Provides a Rigorous Measure for the Ductility of Materials Failure
    XXV. THE DUCTILITY NUMBER ND PROVIDES A RIGOROUS MEASURE FOR THE DUCTILITY OF MATERIALS FAILURE 1. Introduction There was just one decisive, really pivotal occurrence throughout the entire history of trying to develop general failure criteria for homogenous and isotropic materials. The setting was this: Coulomb [1] had laid the original groundwork for failure and then a great many years later Mohr [2] came along and put it into an easily usable form. Thus was born the Mohr- Coulomb theory of failure. There was broad and general enthusiasm when Mohr completed his formulation. Many people thought that the ultimate, general theory of failure had finally arrived. There was however a complication. Theodore von Karman was a young man at the time of Mohr’s developments. He did the critical experimental testing of the esteemed new theory and he found it to be inadequate and inconsistent [3]. Von Karman’s work was of such high quality that his conclusion was taken as final and never successfully contested. He changed an entire course of technical and scientific development. The Mohr-Coulomb failure theory subsided and sank while von Karman’s professional career rose and flourished. Following that, all the attempts at a general materials failure theory remained completely unsatisfactory and unsuccessful (with the singular exception of fracture mechanics). Finally, in recent years a new theory of materials failure has been developed, one that may repair and replace the shortcomings that von Karman uncovered. The present work pursues one special and very important aspect of this new theory, the ductile/brittle failure behavior.

  • Magazine Lip Forming Tools
    MAGAZINE LIP FORMING TOOLS Brownells Lip Forming Anvil and Yoke help the gunsmith alter original equipment-style, .45 caliber, 1911 Auto magazines to properly feed ammuni- tion with semi-wadcutter bullets. Issue-style feed lips are designed for round nose, 230 grain, jacketed bul- lets which have a long ogive and ride up the barrel’s feed ramp easily. Rounds loaded with shorter, lighter, blunt nosed or semi-wadcutter bullets can ei- ther run into the feed ramp as the slide carries them forward or “stand up” too soon and cause a smokestack jam. Changing the lip contour with these tools causes the magazine to release the rear of the cartridge sooner so the extractor can pick it up and help direct it up the ramp and into the chamber. Most aftermarket magazines like those made by Metalform, Wilson, Mc- Cormick, Pachmayr and others, already have a similar feed lip shape. The Lip Forming Anvil and Yoke can often be used to restore the lips on these magazines if they get damaged.

Received: 24 February 2019; Accepted: 28 March 2019; Published: 11 April 2019 Abstract: The mechanical behavior of a partially recrystallized fcc-CoCrFeNiTi0.2 high entropy alloys (HEA) is investigated. Temporal evolutions of the morphology, size, and volume fraction of ◦ the nanoscaled L12-(Ni,Co)3Ti precipitates at 800 C with various aging time were quantitatively evaluated. The ultimate tensile strength can be greatly improved to ~1200 MPa, accompanied with a tensile elongation of ~20% after precipitation. The temporal exponents for the average size and number density of precipitates reasonably conform the predictions by the PV model. A composite model was proposed to describe the plastic strain of the current HEA. As a consequence, the tensile strength and tensile elongation are well predicted, which is in accord with the experimental results. The present experiment provides a theoretical reference for the strengthening of partially recrystallized single-phase HEAs in the future. Keywords: high entropy alloys; precipitation kinetics; strengthening mechanisms; elongation prediction 1. Introduction High entropy alloys (HEAs), a new class of structural materials, have attracted a great deal of attention in recent years on account of their special intrinsic characteristics [1–9], such as high configuration entropy [10], sluggish atomic diffusion [11], and large lattice distortion [12].

  • Ductility & Bend Formality
    Wire Facts / Ductility and Bend Formability There are several measures of ductility for metallic materials. Elongation indicates ductility in tension. However, formed parts may require bending, coining, folding, heading, etc., and one measure such as elongation, may not adequately represent other ductility requirements, such as bend formability. Bend formability indicates the ability of a material to form around a radius without crack- ing. The minimum bend radius is the minimum radius over which a sample can be formed without fracturing. Bend formability values are expressed by the ratio of the minimum bend radius (MBR) divided by the thickness (t) of the material, MBR/t. Test procedures for measuring bend formability can be found in ASTM E 290 and B 820. Bend testing of strip material is performed in the longitudinal, i.e. rolling direction, as well as the transverse direction as illustrated. Typical solid solution alloys have superior bend properties (Good Way Bends) in the longitudinal direction relative to the transverse direction (Bad Way Bends). Wire naturally bends in the Good Way, longitudinal direction. Hence, there are no Bad Way bends in wire. Another factor that allows for better bend formability in wire as compared to strip relates to the width to thickness ratios of the materials. Wire typically has a width to thickness ratio of one (1). Therefore, the deformation mode for wire is plane stress which allows for more formability before fracture. Strip, however, commonly has a width to thickness ratio of eight (8) or greater. These high width to thickness ratios assure plane strain deformation, which by limiting localized strain, adversely affects ductility.

  • Metal Extrusion and Drawing Processes and Equipment
    Hail University College of Engineering Department of Mechanical Engineering Metal Extrusion and Drawing Processes and Equipment Ch 15 Metal Extrusion and Drawing Extrusion and drawing involve, respectively, pushing or pulling a material through a die basically for the purpose of reducing or changing its cross-sectional area. Extrusion and drawing have numerous applications in the manufacture of continuous as well as discrete products from a wide variety of metals and alloys. In extrusion, a cylindrical billet is forced through a die in a manner similar to squeezing toothpaste from a tube or extruding Play-Doh ,in various cross sections in a toy press. Metal Extrusion Typical products made by extrusion are railings for sliding doors, window frames, tubing having various cross sections, aluminum ladder frames, and numerous structural and architectural shapes. Extrusions can be cut into desired lengths, which then become discrete parts, such as brackets, gears, and coat hangers Commonly extruded materials are aluminum, copper, steel, magnesium, and lead; other metals Depending on the ductility of the material, extrusion is carried out at room or elevated temperatures. Extrusion at room temperature often is combined with forging operations, in which case it generally is known as cold Extrusions and examples of products made by extrusion sectioning off extrusions Drawing In drawing, the cross section of solid rod, wire, or tubing is reduced or changed in shape by pulling it through a die. Drawn rods are used for shafts, spindles, and small pistons and as the raw material for fasteners (such as rivets, bolts, and screws). In addition to round rods, various profiles can be drawn.
