As you have seen that Engineering Drawing is a common lab for all Engineering students,
similarly Engineering Workshop is also the common theory/lab for all the branches of
Engineering.
All the concepts w.r.t. various units are presented below in the form of links. Just click
them to navigate through.

Now Let's know the Questions and Answers from Engineering Workshop.
1. Define Plastic?
Plastics are also called Polymers. They are made up of carbon, hydrogen, and
sometimes oxygen, chlorine, nitrogen, fluorine, sulfur, phosphorus, or silicon. The majority
of the time, polymers are made up of Carbon, Hydrogen, and Oxygen only.
It is amorphous in nature.

It is very brittle.
It Softens on heating
It can absorb, transmit and reflect light.
It is a good electrical insulator.
These are affected by alkalis.
The glass cutting tools which are used to cut the glass are as follows.
Polyethylene
Poly Vinyl Chloride(PVC)
Teflon
Kitchen Products
Agriculture Products
Plastic Buckets
Industrial Pump Impeller
Water Cooler Parts
Medical Products
Water Bottles
Plastic Buckets
Liquid Containers

Laser cutting machines are equipped with computer-controlled programming that helps to
do the work more efficiently and easily. The laser beam is used to cut different materials
like metal, wood, rubber, glass, and plastics. By this, a high degree of accuracy is
maintained.
1. Define Casting?
It is a process in which the liquid molten metal is poured into the casting cavity whose
shape is the same as that of the shape of the casting to be produced, allowing it to
solidify, and after solidification, the casting will be taken out by breaking the mold called
as the Casting process.
2. Define Welding?
Welding is a process of joining two or more similar or dissimilar metals with or without the
application of heat, with or without the application of pressure, and with or without the
application of filler material.
Punching Operation: When the force is applied by using the punch onto the sheet, the
cutting or shearing action will be taking place in the sheet producing a piece/blank leaving
a hole in the sheet called a Punching Operation.
Blanking Operation: When the force is applied by using the punch onto the sheet, the
cutting or shearing action will be taking place in the sheet producing a piece/blank called
a Blanking Operation.
It is the replica of the casting to be produced. Replica means, the shape of the pattern
remains the same as that of the shape of the casting to be produced.
Solid pattern
Split pattern
Match plate pattern
5/12
Cope Pattern and Drag Pattern
Spelter+Borax+Water = Paste
A mixture of Spelter and Borax with Water is used as a paste and is applied to the metal
parts at the joints.
Pattern allowances are given to the pattern to compensate for metal shrinkages,
provide sufficient metal for machining, and to facilitate the proper molding process.
Shrinkage Allowance
Machining Allowance
Draft Allowance
Shake Allowance
Distortion Allowance
Fusion welding
Arc welding
Gas welding
Chemical welding
Non Fusion welding
Resistance welding
Soldering
Brazing
Cold pressure
Cryogenic

1. What is machining?
It is a process in which a piece of raw material is cut into a desired shape and size by
means of sharp cutting tools called a Machining Process.
Drilling
Milling
Turning
Boring etc.
This format essentially “slices” the object into ultra-thin layers. Each successive layer
bonds to the preceding layer of partially melted or melted material. This file has to be sent
to an Additive Manufacturing machine or 3D Printing Machine to produce a 3D object in
the form of fine layers.
7/12
A cutting tool is used to remove the material from the surface of the workpiece. It must
be harder than the workpiece to carry out the operation.
8. What is grinding?
Grinding is the conventional finish machining operation used for producing a good surface
finish on the components.
Turning
Facing
Thread Cutting
Drilling
Boring
Counterboring
CNC machines are used for various machining operations like punching, shearing, laser
cutting, flame or plasma cutting, forming, welding, and many other applications.
