1) COLD WORKING
Plastic deformation which is carried out in a temperature region and over
a time interval such that the strain hardening is not relieved is called
cold working.
• Hot working refers to the process where metals are defromed above
their recrystallizatıon tempereture and strain hardening does not
occur.Hot working performed at elevated tempreature.However is hot
working at room temperature because of its low melting temperature.
Hot ingots
Some Hot Working Processes:
• Rolling
• Forging
• Extrusion
• Hot drawing
• Pipe welding
• Piercing

Rolling
Aluminium is first passed through a hot rolling mill and then transferred to a cold rolling
mill.
• This thinner aluminium is then coiled and transported to the cold rolling mill for
further processing.

Rolling??
Rolling is a fabricating process in which the metal, plastic,
paper, glass, etc. is passed through a pair (or pairs) of rolls.
There are two types of rolling process, flat and profile rolling.
In flat rolling the final shape of the product is either classed
as sheet (typically thickness less than 3 mm, also called
"strip") or plate (typically thickness more than 3 mm).
In profile rolling, the final product may be a round rod or other
shaped bar such as a structural section (beam, channel, joist
etc). Rolling is also classified according to the temperature of
the metal rolled. If the temperature of the metal is above its
recrystallization temperature then the process is termed as
hot rolling, If the temperature of metal is below its
recrystallization temperature the process is termed as cold
rolling.

WHAT is DRAWING?
• The most common drawplate have round holes and are used
to reduce the size of round wire.
Extruded products
• Direct extrusion: A metal
billet is located into a
container, and a ram
compresses the material,
forcing it to flow through
one or more openings in a
die at the opposite end of
the container.
