An Overview Of Machining Operations For Metal Fabrication

Many metal products in the market are a result of machining. Machining refers to processing or shaping material, typically metal, or cutting to the desired shape to manufacture components for tools, machines, transportation, construction, and more. Modern-day machining involves the use of computer numerical control (CNC). With CNC, machinists use computers to control how the …

Swaging Process : Working, Application, Advantages and Disadvantages

Today we will learn about swaging process. Swaging is a metal forming process of reducing diameter of a rod or tube by forcing it into a die with the help of reciprocating blow. This will plastically deform the metal and force it to flow into die and acquire die cavity shape. The fundamental concept is similar …
