Which is caused by galvanic action, occurs between
dissimilar metals or between metals and other
material when sufficient moisture is present to carry
an electrical current.
METAL DETERIORATION
also occurs when metals come in contact with chemically
active materials, particularly when moisture is present. For
example, aluminum corrodes when in direct contact with
concrete or mortar, and steel corrodes when in contact with
certain treated woods
PITTING AND CONCENTRATION
CELL CORROSION
are other types of metal deterioration.
Pitting takes place when particles or
bubbles of gas are deposited on a metal
surface.
SHAPING AND FABRICATION
OF METALS
CASTING
Is a process in which molten metal is poured into molds or forced
into dies and allowed to solidify in the shape of the mold or die.
The casting process is used with virtually all metals; however,
surface quality and physical characteristics are greatly
affected by the metal alloy and casting process selected.
FORGING
Forging is hammering hot metal or pressing cold
metal to a desired shape in dies of a harder
metal.
MACHINING
is used to finish areas of castings or forgings requiring highly
precise fits or contours. Shapes can also be machined from heavy
plate or solid blocks of metal
EMBOSSING AND COINING
are stamped metal with textured or raised patterns.
BLANKING
is shearing, sawing, or cutting metal sheets with a
punch press to achieve a desired configurationsee
PIERCING
punches holes through metal without removing
any of the metal.
FUSION WELDING
is used to join metal pieces by melting filler metal
(welding rod) and the adjacent edges briefly with a
torch and then allowing the molten metal to
solidify.
is also known as oxyacetylene welding because it
uses a mixture of oxygen and acetylene to fuel the
flames produced by the bloMorch.
GAS WELDING
SOLDERING
Is a metal joining process that uses either hard or soft solder.
The metal pieces being joined together do not melt as they do
in the welding process because soldiers melt at much lower
temperatures
BRAZING
sometimes called hard soldering, also joins two
pieces of metal together by torch melting a filler
rod material between them.

NICKEL
Are the result of physically changing the surface of the
metal through mechanical means.
Are achieved by means of chemicals, which may or may
not have a physical effect on the surface of the metal.
Are applied as finishes. either to the metal stock
or the fabricated product.
MECHANICAL FINISHES
Are the texture and surface
appearance given to a metal by
the fabrication process.
Are produced by successive polishing
and buffing operations using fire
abrasives, lubricants, and soft fabric
wheels.
MECHANICAL FINISHES
Available in various textures and
designs.
Produced by making tiny parallel scratches
on the metal surface using a belt or wheel
and fine abrasive, or by hand rubbing with
steel wool.
MECHANICAL FINISHES
Achieved by firing a stream of
small steel shot at a metal
surface at high velocity.
CHEMICAL FINISHES
Cleans the metal surface without
affecting it in any other way.
Produce a matte, frosted surface
with varying degrees ol roughness
by treating the metal with an acid
or alkali solution.
CHEMICAL FINISHES
Not used widely, involves chemical or
electrolytic brightening of a metal
surface, typically aluminum.
Typically categorized as a chemical
finish, but since a layer or coating is
produced by a chemical reaction, n, it
could be considered a coating as well.
COATINGS
Provide protection only or
serve both protective and
decorative functions. The
former category includes
primers or undercoats,
pigmented topcoats in
hidden areas, and clear
finishes.
COATINGS
An increasingly popular alternative to
spraying, is similar to electroplating,
except that organic resins are d€posited
instead of metal.
Perhaps the best known environmentally
acceptable painting process. Because the
paints are solventless, they are safer and
"greener."
COATINGS
THERMOPLASTIC -
include vinyl,
polyethylene, and certain
polyesters, are melted by
heat during application
THERMOSETTING -
undergo a chemical
change; they cannot be
remelted by heat. The
thermosets do not require
a primer.
COATINGS
Widely used to protect
aluminum and many of its
alloys from corrosion. When
the metal is anodized in one
of a variety of acids, a
protective oxide is formed on
the surface.
COATINGS
Composed of Inorganic
glossy materials
(glass). Although one
of the hardest and
most durable finishes,
they are brittle.
Deformation of metal
surfaces can cause
cracking and splitting.
COATINGS
Consists of immersIng clean
parts Into a molten bath of
the desired coating metal.
In general, molten
aluminum, lead, zinc, and
some alloys can be applied
as hot-dip coatings to irons.
COATINGS
ELECTRODEPOSITION
- an electrical current
is carried across an
electrolyte and an
organic resin
substance deposited
on an electrode

WELDINGWELDINGWELDING
Welding is a manufacturing process where two or more
parts are fused using heat, pressure, or both to form a
joint while the components cool.
Welding is mostly used on metals and thermoplastics,
but it can also be used on wood.

PROPERTIES OF WELDINGPROPERTIES OF WELDINGPROPERTIES OF WELDING
Strength in welding refers to the ability of the welded joint or
material to withstand applied loads without breaking or deforming.
It is a crucial property, as welds are often used in structural
applications where strength is essential.
Hardness measures the resistance of a material to indentation or
scratching.
In welding, the hardness of the welded area can affect its durability
and resistance to wear and abrasion.
PROPERTIES OF WELDINGPROPERTIES OF WELDINGPROPERTIES OF WELDING
Ductility is the ability of a material to deform plastically without
breaking.
It is important in welding because materials that are too brittle can
lead to weld cracking and failure.
Fracture toughness is a measure of a material's ability to resist
crack propagation.
Welded joints need good fracture toughness to prevent the growth
of defects and to ensure the integrity of the weld under stress.

SHIELDED METAL ARC WELDINGSHIELDED METAL ARC WELDINGSHIELDED METAL ARC WELDING
The simplest, least expensive, and mostly widely used arc welding process.
A welding process in which coalescence of metals is produced by heat from an
electric arc maintained between the tip of a consumable electrode and the
surface of the base material in the joint being welded.
GAS METAL ARC WELDING (MIG)GAS METAL ARC WELDING (MIG)GAS METAL ARC WELDING (MIG)
A welding process which joins metals by
heating the metals to their melting point
with an electric arc and the arc is struck
between a continuous, consumable bare
(not covered) electrode wire and the
workpiece; whereas the arc is shielded
from atmospheric contaminants by a
shielding gas.
This process uses a thin wire as an
electrode. The wire heats up when it is fed
through the welding machine to the
welding point. This method is widely used
for machining metals such as stainless
steel, copper, nickel, carbon steel,
aluminum, and more. Of all welding
processes, this is the most popular in the
construction and automotive industry.
TIG is one of the best types of welding
techniques.
often used to weld together thin and
non-ferrous materials such as
aluminum, copper, lead, or nickel.
It is widely used in the manufacture of
bicycles or airplanes.
In contrast to other types of welding
processes, TIG welding uses a non-
consumable tungsten electrode to
produce the weld seam. It would be
best if you still had an external gas
supply, usually argon or a mixture of
argon and helium.
