A lot of metalworking processes have been developedfor certain applications.
They can be divided into five broad groups: rolling,extrusion, drawing, forging, sheet-metal forming.During the first four processes metal is subjected to large amounts ofstrain (deformation). But if deformation goes at a high temperature, themetal will recrystallize – that is, new strain-free grains will grow instead ofdeformed grains. For this reason metals are usually rolled, extruded, drawn,or forged above their recrystallization temperature. This is called hot working. Under these conditions there is no limit to the compressive plastic strainto which the metal can be subjected.Other processes are performed below the recrystallization temperature.These are called cold working. Cold working hardens metal and makes thepart stronger.
However, there is a limit to the strain before a cold part cracks.Rolling is the most common metalworking process. More than 90 percent of the aluminum, steel and copper produced are rolled at least once inthe course of production. The most common rolled product is sheet. Rollingcan be done either hot or cold. If the rolling is finished cold, the surface willbe smoother and the product stronger.Extrusion is pushing the billet to flow through the orifice of a die.
Products may have either a simple or a complex cross section. Aluminum window frames are the examples of complex extrusions.Tubes or other hollow parts can also be extruded. The initial piece is athick-walled tube, and the extruded part is shaped between a die on the outside of the tube and a mandrel held on the inside.In back-extrusion (штамповка выдавливанием) the workpiece isplaced in the bottom of a hole and a loosely fitting ram is pushed against it.The ram forces the metal to flow back around it, with the gap between theram and the die determining the wall thickness. The example of this processis the manufacturing of aluminum beer cans.72Drawing consists of pulling metal through a die. An example of drawingis wire drawing. The diameter reduction that can be achieved in one die islimited, but several dies in series can be used to get the desired reduction.Sheet metal forming is widely used when parts of certain shape and sizeare needed.
It includes forging, bending and shearing. One characteristic ofsheet metal forming is that the thickness of the sheet changes little inprocessing. The metal is stretched just beyond its yield point (2 to 4 %strain) in order to retain the new shape. Bending can be done by pressingbetween two dies. Shearing is a cutting operation similar to that used forcloth.Forging is the shaping of a piece of metal by pushing with open orclosed dies. It is usually done hot in order to reduce the required force andincrease the metal‟s plasticity.Vocabular:1. rolling – прокатка2. extrusion – экструзия, выдавливание3.

Read the following web page and complete the missing headingsusing the words :a. Aluminium b. Copperc. Glass d. Plastic e. Rubberf. Steel g. Timber.RECYCLABLE MATERIALS1) … Scrap can be sorted easily using magnetism. If the metal is galvanized ( coated with zinc) the zinc is fully recyclable.
If it is stainless steel,other metals mixed with the iron, such as chromium and nickel, can also berecovered and recycled.2) … Sorting is critical, as there are key differences between the clearand coloured material used in bottles and jars, and the high-grade materialused in engineering applications, which contains traces of metals.743) … Scarcity makes recycling especially desirable, and justifies thecost of removing insulation from electric wires, which are a major source ofscrap.
Pure metal can also be recovered from alloys derived from it, notablybrass ( which also contains quantities of zinc, and often lead) and bronze (which contains tin).4) … The cost of melting down existing metal is significantly cheaperthan the energy-intensive process of electrolysis, which is required to extract new metal from ore.5) … Hardwood and softwood can be reused. However, the frequentneed to remove ironmongery and saw or plane off damaged edges, canmake the process costly.6) … Tyres are the primary source of recyclable material.
These can bereused whole in certain applications. They can also be ground into crumbswhich have varied uses.7) … An obstacle to recycling is the need to sort waste carefully. Whilesome types can be melted down for reuse, many cannot, or result in lowgrade material.5.2.
