TOOLS REQUIRED: Gauge, skew chisel, parting tool, scraping tools. DESCRIPTION OF LATHE: Wood turning lathe is also called lathe. It is simple in construction having three basic parts bed, head stock and tail stock. The head stock is permanently fixed on the left side of the bed. On the top of the bed guide way tail stock is mounted and it is free to slide and it can be clamped in any position. The work piece is held between centers (head stock and tail stock) and revolved on its own axis. The tool is fed manually to remove UN wanted material from rotating work piece. From this machine any axis symmetric component can be produced. PROCEDURE: 1. Take the work piece of required length and size. 2. Check the end faces weather they are perpendicular or not with the rectangular faces. 3. Mark the centers on both end faces. 4. Fix the work piece between centers. That is live center and dead center. 5. Rotate the work piece in anti clock wise direction. 6. Feed the tools manually to get the desired shape.

RESISTANCE SPOT WELDING AIM: Prepare a welded model using Spot welding TOOLS REQUIRED: spot welding machine , pneumatic cylinder& piston Arrangement, hose pipes. MATERIAL REQUIRED: sheet metal DESCRIPTION: The process description made so far is called the resistance spot welding (RSW)or simply spot welding. This is the most common resistance welding process. This is essentially done to join two sheet metal jobs in lap joint forming a smaller nugget at the interface of the two plates, as shown in fig. it essentially consists of two electrodes, out of which one is fixed. The other electrode is fixed to a rocker arm (to provide mechanical advantage) for transmitting the mechanical force from a pneumatic cylinder. This is the simplest type of arrangement. The other position is that of a pneumatic or hydraulic cylinder being directly connected to the electrode without any rocker arm. PROCEDURE: 1. Close tongs and measure space between electrode tip contact surfaces. 2. Measure the thickness of the total well-ment. 3. Adjust tong gap to measurement of Step 2 less 1/2 the thickness of the thinnest weld number. 4.Insert the parts to be welded between the electrode tips and bring tips to welding pressure. 5.There should be a slight deflection of the tongs. This may be measured with a straight edge set on the tong longitudinal axis. 6. Energize the spot welding machine and make a sample weld. 7. Test the weld by visual and mechanical means. Check the electrode tip for deformation and contamination 8. Adjust tong pressure as required 9.A typical welding schedule whose time elements are measured in terms of the time unit for a cycle of AC these welding schedules can be precisely controlled with the modern programmable electronic controllers PRECAUTIONS: 1. Flying sparks and hot metal are often thrown off from the weld joint and can burn or injure eyes and skin.

Exp.No: PIPE BENDING MACHINE Date: AIM : Prepare a model using Pipe bending machine TOOLS REQUIRED: Bending machine , pneumatic cylinder& piston Arrangement, hose pipes. MATERIAL REQUIRED: sheet metal DESCRIPTION: o Bending refers to the operation of deforming a flat sheet around a straight axis where the neutral plane lies. o The disposition of the stresses in a bent specimen is shown in fig . o Here, due to the applied forces, the top layers are in tension and bottom layers are in compression as shown. The plane with no stresses is called the neutral axis. o The neutral axis should be at the centre when the material is elastically deformed.But when the material reaches the plastic stage, the neutral axis moves downward, since the materials oppose compression much better than tension PROCEDURE: since neutral axis remains constant, it is the required length. Beyond the bend lines, the material is not affected. Hence to calculate the length required, it is necessary to find out the bend allowance which is the arc length of the neutral axis between the bend lines.. The outer layers which are under tension should not be stretched too much; otherwise there is likelihood of rupture taking place. The amount of stretching depends on the sheet thickness and the radius. Lower the bend radius. Lower the bend radius, higher is the strain in this zone. Hence there is a minimum bend radius to be specified, depending on the material characteristics. The other aspect to be considered in designing parts from bending is the grain orientation of the sheet which is bent. As far as possible, the bending is to be done in a direction perpendicular to the grain direction in the metal. By virtue of the rolled sheets being used for bending, the grain direction usually is along the length axis, being the direction of rolling. There is a possibility of cracks appearing at the time of bending if the bending is done along the grains But if two bending are to be done on

the same sheet at right angles, then it may be desirable to make them at 450 to the grain direction so that the risk of cracking is minimized. Spring back in bending is difficult to estimate theoretically .but it is essential to compensate it, because the bend geometry gets affected by the spring back directly. RESULT:

Date:

TOOLS REQUIRED: Blow Molding Machine, Press working die, pneumatic cylinder& piston Arrangement, hose pipes MATERIAL REQUIRED: Granular Rubber DESCRIPTION: The injection molding process and the plastics industry has become a multi-billion dollar industry, with 32% of all plastics, by weight, processed by injection molding. Injection molding has made possible the cheap and durable construction of many consumer and industrial items that have had a profound impact on society. PROCEDURE: Granulated or powdered thermoplastic plastic is fed from a hopper into the Injection Molding machine. The Injection Molding machine consists of a hollow steel barrel, containing a rotating screw (Archemidial Screw). The screw carries the plastic along the barrel to the mould. Heaters surround the barrel melt the plastic as it travels along the barrel. The screw is forced back as the melted plastic collects at the end of the barrel. Once enough plastic has collected a hydraulic ram pushes the screw forward injecting the plastic through a sprue into a mould cavity. The mould is warmed before injecting and the plastic is injected quickly to prevent it from hardening before the mould is full. .Pressure is maintained for a short time (dwell time) to prevent the material creeping back during setting (hardening). This prevents shrinkage and hollows, therefore giving a better quality product. .The molding is left to cool before removing (ejected) from the mould. The molding takes on the shape of the mould cavity

BLOW MOULDING AIM: Prepare a model using Blow Molding TOOLS REQUIRED: blow Molding Machine, Press working die, pneumatic cylinder& piston Arrangement, hose pipes MATERIAL REQUIRED: Granular Rubber. DESCRIPTION: Blow molding process for the fabrication of plastic containers is similar to that used for blowing glass bottles. Blow molding is a manufacturing method used in the plastics and polymers industries to create hollow but strong containers for their clients. Plastic beverage bottles and fuel tanks are commonly created through blow molding. A typical blow molding machine set-up uses an extruded plastic pre form and compressed air to fill the chamber of a divided Plastic molds. The two halves of the mold separate and the finished container is released. PROCEDURE: First a length of polymer tubing is extruded. While still in a semi molten state, the length is placed in to a two piece mould having the desired container configuration. The hallow piece is formed by blowing or steam under pressure in to the parsion, forcing the tube walls to conform to the counters of the mould. Sometimes referred to as Molding Technique Actually an extrusion process, since the material is shaped by being forced through an extruder Casting like metals, polymeric materials may be cast, as when a molten plastic material is poured in to a mould and allowed to solidify. Both thermoplastic and thermosetting plastics may be cast .For thermoplastics, solidification occurs upon cooling from the molten state; however, for thermosetting, Harding is a consequence of the actual polymerization or curing process.
