Feasibility of making a product from natural organic or inorganic resources depends on the advancement of science and is accelerated by the human need. However, easy, efficient, productive, economic and ergonomic conversion of raw materials to useful products as per the customers’ requirement relie

Machining or metal cutting is one subtractive manufacturing process where excess material is gradually removed in the form of chips from preformed blank using a cutting tool in order to impart intended shape, size and surface finish. To continuously remove (shear off) layers of material, a sharp ed

Manufacturing is one crucial step in production that actually converts raw materials or scraps into desired products by adding substantial value. Several manufacturing processes exist to cater the need of processing wide variety of materials in sweeping ways. Growing need for miniaturized products

Manufacturing, a crucial step in production system, converts raw materials and scraps into useful products by adding sufficient value. However, all physical products cannot be produced in same way. Accordingly there exist several manufacturing processes in order to fabricate different objects made

Requirement for joining of two or more components is inherent to manufacturing. There exist various joining techniques to assemble a wide variety of materials in multifarious ways. Some of these processes provide permanent joints, while others provide temporary joints. Like riveting, coupling and a

In the context of manufacturing or mechanical engineering, three terms, namely machine, machine tool and cutting tool have different significance. Basically machine is any device that reduces human effort in doing a task. By formal definition, a machine is an assembly of mechanisms that are cluster

Joining is an integral part of manufacturing as it facilitates easy, efficient and economic production of intricate shaped parts. Basic purpose of joining is to assemble two or more solid components together in such a way that it can form a single unit and can subsequently perform intended function

Tungsten Inert Gas (TIG) welding is one popular arc based welding process where electric arc is constituted between a non-consumable tungsten electrode and the workpiece. It is one reliable and economic process to efficiently and permanently join metallic parts with or without the usage of filler m

Welding is one age old joining process that can efficiently and economically assemble two or more structural members permanently. There exist a large variety of welding processes that can join structures of various materials in multifarious ways. Gas Tungsten Arc Welding (GTAW), popularly known as

Welding, along with fastening, is extensively used for various industrial and household assembly purposes. Welding is one type of joining process by which two or more solid components can be joined permanently by coalescence formation with or without the application of filler metal, heat and pressu

Joining is a part and parcel of manufacturing as it facilitates easy and economic production of intricate shaped objects. By definition, joining is one of the manufacturing processes by which two or more solid components can be assembled together to obtain a single unit. As usual a large number of

Primary objective of manufacturing is to convert raw materials or scraps into desired consumer products by adding substantial value to it. Such conversion may not always possible in single step and usually requires multiple steps where each step incorporate certain functionalities into the product.

Welding is one of the popular joining processes that has almost superseded other permanent joining processes including riveting. Intensive development of welding technique throughout last few decades makes it prominent choice for joining of metallic structures, plastics and even ceramics. By defini

Welding is one of the popular joining techniques that can permanently join two or more materials together with or without the application of heat, pressure and filler material. Fusion welding is that group of welding processes where faying surfaces of parent component are fused by heating in order

Welding is one of the joining processes that can efficiently and economically assemble two or more metallic or non-metallic parts permanently. With the extensive development throughout the years, a large number of such processes has evolved in order to cater the need to join a large variety of mate

Fabricating complicate shaped products with good surface finish by casting is not always feasible and economical. Various secondary operations can be performed on the casted products to finally produce the desired object. Such operations include joining (such as welding), material removal or machin

Machining or metal cutting is one of the manufacturing processes by which excess material is gradually removed from a pre-formed blank to provide desired shape, size and finish. It is one subtractive manufacturing process that is primarily used to improve dimensional accuracy and tolerance level. T

Machining or metal cutting is one subtractive manufacturing process that is predominantly used to remove unwanted material from workpiece to improve dimensional accuracy and tolerance. Over the ages multifarious machining processes have been evolved for efficient processing of a larger variety of m

Machining is one subtractive manufacturing process by which excess material is removed from pre-formed blank in the form of chips in order to improve dimensional accuracy and tolerance. A wedge shaped cutting tool (or cutter) is employed for gradual shearing of layer by layer material. Geometry, or

Conventional machining or metal cutting operation is performed to gradually remove excess layer of material from the workpiece to impart intended shape, dimension and finish. Material removal is realized with the help of a small device called cutter or cutting tool. During machining, the cutter as
