So far, we’ve put together the major things to know on lathe machine but in brief. Today we’ll be looking in-depth on the major parts of lathe machine and their functions. If you must know, there are some basic parts learners must know and how they work.  These basic parts include: Head-

Due to how the functionality and how effective lathe machine has become in its operation, different types have been available over the years. However, classifying them into categories is not an easy task that is why this post was publish. Read: Understanding lathe machine Lathe machine o

There is various operation performed with lathe machine. The Operation might vary base on the fact that the use of lathes is broad, such as metalworking, woodworking, etc.  The machine helps to shape several material pieces into desired shapes. And in metalworking field, it rotates the p

Drilling machine which is also known as drill press is a cutting process that uses drill bit of various sizes to cut a hole of circular-section in solid materials like metal, plastic, wood, rocks etc. The drill bit as the cutting tool rotates, often multi-point. This drill which rotates fro

The Four Welding positions Welding is a very broad topic as there are several welding types out there. Having an outlook on welding positions you are expected to already have knowledge of welding operation. Welding positions are the posture at which a welder must utilize toward the work

What are welding inspection and testing? Welding inspection is to check or know characteristics a weld has and to inspect discontinuities in the weld. The size of a weld is very important as its strength and performance can be determined. It is good to know the performance of a weld and

Welding joint is the point or edge at which two or more metals are joined. There are different types of joints in the fabrication world, they are performed on special types of operation. Workpieces are joined with aid of welding to provide strong joint in order to withstand stresses appl

Benchwork allows very convenience operations in the engineering field with different hand tools and portable tools to be used on it. Benchwork offers greater work finish and a fairly good degree of accuracy. Though some work is expected to perform on an automatic machine, workbench stil

What is a vice? A vice is a mechanical device that is used in the engineering field to hold a workpiece rigid at a stationary position. It is used in different area and field such as woodworking, metalworking, mechanical engineer etc. due to its wide applications. Vice is attached to bench

Being part of the important hand tools use in the manufacturing world, hacksaws are known for cutting wood, plastic, metal and other. Hacksaws must be included in a toolbox or in small garage shops.   These hand tools are made of metal, framed in U-shaped leaving a space for a thin, wid

Hammer as one of the oldest and most important hand tools in the engineering world. Though there are one’s made of electric and pneumatic applicable on a very heavy object. Hammer of different types are used can be used in various field such as woodworking, metalworking, etc.   Hammer de

soldering process Soldering is a joining process that uses solder to join two different metal parts together. The solder is made of a metal alloy usually tin and lead, which is melted on the surface that requires joining. The joining is done using soldering iron when heated above 600 de

  Soldering is one of the best ways to join some part like electrical, mechanical etc. component, which is of three different types. If the soldering process is not perfectly done, that is, if a proper amount of heat and flux is not applied. The end result is definitely bad, producing a

Brazing is a joining process that differs from other joining processes like welding due to the fact that it does not melt the base metal during joining. Though brazing is classified among types of soldering but it uses a higher temperature for joining. It also requires very close fitted
