The main motive of this course is to make you understand the METAL FORMING (Mechanical working of metals) in greater detail without taking much of your time. The prime focus here is the rolling process. However, extrusion, drawing, forging, Sheet metal etc. will also be covered.

Learning Objectives

• What is metal forming - Re-crystallization, Hot and cold working, Grain theory, Flow stress
• Rolling process - Mechanism, slip, maximum reduction, force and power, rolling mill types, ROLL PASS design
• Industry oriented - "How to make a production report for a rolling mill"
• Extrusion and Drawing - Basic concept, types and important formula, Wire and tube drawing
• Forging - Types, forgeability, forging analysis, operations and defects
• Sheet metal - Punching,blanking and other sheet metal operations
