DESIGN AND ANALYSIS OF AXIAL CROSSING OF WORK ROLLS IN ROLLING MILL WORK ROLL...IAEME Publication
Rolling Mill is one of the machine for rolling steel or other metal into sheets. For reliable and efficient working of rolling mill it is necessary that all the components used in rolling mill should work properly without fail. Work roll assembly is very important part of the rolling mill. It has been observed that In hot rolling mill during the metal rolling at finishing mill (4-Hi mill Reversible) , work roll pair come out due to the axial crossing of work rolls and due to which uneven thickness of metal, strip breakage, bending of locking plate, metal shifting and equipment breakdown occurs. After the Study it has been observed that wear of the work roll liner is one of the reasons for the axial crossing of the work rolls.

Finite element modeling and bending stress analysis of non standard spur geareSAT Journals
Abstract Gears are toothed wheels, transmitting power and motion from one shaft to another by means of successive engagement of teeth. Having a higher degree of reliability, compactness, high velocity ratio and finally able to transmit motion at a very low velocity, gears are gaining importance as the most efficient means for transmitting power. A gearing system is susceptible to problems such as interference, backlash and undercut. The contact portions of tooth profiles that are not conjugate is called interference. Furthermore due to interference and in the absence of undercut, the involute tip or face of the driven gear tends to dig out the non-involute flank of the driver. The response of a spur gear and its wear is an engineering problem that has not been completely overcome yet. With the perspective of overcoming such defects and for increase the efficiency of gearing system, the use of a non-standard spur gear i.e., an asymmetric spur gear having different pressure angles for drive and coast side of the tooth comes into picture. This paper emphasis on the generation of an asymmetric spur gear tooth using modeling software and bending stress at the root of Asymmetric spur gear tooth is estimated by finite element analysis using ANSYS software and results were compared with the standard spur gear tooth. Keywords: Asymmetric spur gear, Bending stress, Finite element method, Pressure angle

A REVIEW ON OPTIMIZATION OF RESISTANCE SPOT WELDING OF ALUMINUM COMPONENTS US...AM Publications
Resistance Spot welding (RSW) is one of the common welding processes used for sheet joining especially in the automobile and aerospace industry. It is used in a wide range of industries but notably for the assembly of sheet steel vehicle bodies. This is a type of resistance welding where the spot welds are made at regular intervals on overlapping sheets of metal. Spot welding is primarily used for joining parts that are normally up to 3 mm in thickness. The joint quality can be defined in terms of properties such as weld-bead geometry, mechanical properties and distortion.The objective of the research is to determine the optimum combination of parameters responsible for better quality of joints. The complicated behavior of the process must be analyzed to set the optimum parameters to get the optimum weld quality. The paper also presents the FEA simulation of the RSW process.
The machining process is essential in the manufacturing industry. Among the all
machining process, turning is the broadest techniques used to remove the metal. In
this machining process, metal removal rate was influenced by the sharpness of the
cutting tools. Due to the friction between the workpiece and the tool insert, tool wear
occurs. After the wear takes place, the efficiency of the machine will be reduced and
metal removal time will be increased. Hence, it is essential to investigate the
behaviour of the tool wear under the machining. This investigation is to analyse the
wear characteristics of the tool inserts. The machining of the EN8 was examined in
this research using silicon carbide tool inserts and Titanium nitride coated tool
inserts. This research was investigated the wear behaviour of the silicon carbide tool
insert, and titanium nitride tool insert in machining of EN8 steel using a horizontal
machining centre. The wear of the inserts was measured using toolmakers
microscope. The flank wear and crater wear was considered in the tool wear
measurement.
Fsw optimization for dissimilar aluminium alloys (Presentation)Dr. Bikram Jit Singh
The basic principle of FSW involves simultaneous application of pressure and relative motion, generally in a rotational mode, between the components to be joined. From the available literature, it has been observed that the effect of welding parameters on desired characteristics was determined by taking into consideration one parameter at a time or by using conventional methods like, One Factor at a Time (OFAT) technique. So without ignoring the limitations of earlier researches, the main focus in this study has been kept on welding of dissimilar alloys (specifically AA6061 and AA5086) by using Design of Experiments (DoE) which is quite rarely used Multi-Factor at a Time (MFAT) technique. Therefore, the ultimate objective of the work is to optimize critical to process parameters (CPPs) of FSW process for achieving mechanical characteristics within ranges. This book contains quite rare information as far as FSW is concerned.

OPTIMIZATIONS OF MACHINING PARAMETER IN WIRE EDM FOR 316L STAINLESS STEEL BY ...IAEME Publication
WEDM is one of the non-traditional method used for the machining complex shape structure and components made up of hard material like composites and HSS. This is an experimental investigation of wire electro-discharge machining (WEDM) of 316L SS. The outstanding characteristics of stainless steel 316L such as their compatibility and noticeable physical, mechanical and biological performance has led to increased application of them in various industries especially in biomedical industries over the last 50 years.316L SS is used extensively for weldments where its immunity to carbide precipitation due to welding assures optimal corrosion resistance. There are some difficulties in machining of stainless steel by conventional machining. On the other hand, unconventional machining process especially Wire electrical discharge machining (WEDM) are more appropriate techniques for machining difficult to machine materials such as stainless steel.

Optimization of Surface Roughness for EN 1010 Low Alloy Steel on WEDM Using R...IJAEMSJORNAL
The term steel is used for many different alloys of iron. All steels cover small amounts of carbon and manganese. There do exist many types of steels which are(among others) plain carbon steel, stainless steel, alloysteel and tool steel. Carbon steel is the most extensively used kind of steel. The properties of carbon steel depend mainly on the amount of carbon it contains. Maximum carbon steel has a carbon content of less than 1%. Carbon steel is made into an extensive range of products, including structural beams, car bodies. In fact, there are 3 types of plain carbon steel namely low carbon steel, medium carbon steel, high carbon steel. It is good to exact that plain carbon steel is a type of steel having a maximum carbon content of 1.5% along with small percentages of silica, Sulphur, phosphorus and manganese. EN 1010 is a lowest amount of carbonalloy steel alloy with carbon content of 0.10%. Machineability of EN 1010 carbon steel is measured to be fairly good. EN 1010 is usually used for rivets and bolts, construction and automotive applications such as pans, nails and transmission cover. The objective of paper is to study the effect of process parameters namely pulse on time, pulse off time, peak current and servo voltage on surface roughness(SR).The effect of process parameters on productivity and accuracy facts is material dependent. To study parametric effect on Surface Roughness a Central Composite design approach of response surface methodology (RSM) is used to plan and study the experiments. The mathematical relationships between WEDM input process parameters and response parameter namely surface roughness is established to determine optimal values of surface roughness mathematically and graphically.The Analysis of variance (ANOVA) is performed to find statistically significant process parameters. Interaction effects of process parameters on surface roughness are analysed using statistical and graphical representations.
