Laser Beam Machining is a thermal machining process which uses laser beam to produce heat and remove material from workpiece. In this machining, metal is removed from workpiece by melting and vapourizing of metal particles in a controlled from its surface using heat from laser.Laser Beam machining is widely used in cutting sheet and drilling…
Electrochemical Honing is a process in which material is removed with help of electrical energy, chemical energy and honing process. For those who don’t know, honing is an abrasive machining process that produces a precision surface on a metal workpiece by scrubbing an abrasive stone against it along a controlled path.In honing a hone tool is used. A…
Electron Beam Machining (EBM) is a machining process in which material is removed from the workpiece by focusing a beam of high-velocity electrons towards the workpiece.The source of energy in electron beam machining is high velocity electrons. A high voltage DC power supply is used to generate electrons with high energy in this process.It is…
The machining process in which a water jet is used to remove material from the workpiece is called Water jet machining(WJM).In this process, a water jet is used which acts as a tool in the form of water saw.In this process water is greatly accelerated and further concentrated on the target workpiece.This water jet at…
Electrochemical machining is a non-traditional machining process. In the electrochemical machining process, a combination of electrical energy and chemical energy is used to remove material from the workpiece.This process is characterized as a reverse electroplating process but this process removes material instead of depositing it. This process is a non-contact process in which the cavity…
Ultrasonic Machining Process is a non-conventional machining process used for machining both conducting and non-conducting materials. This machining process can be used to machine such materials that cannot be machined by the conventional machining process. Ultrasonic Machining is mainly used in brittle materials.As the name suggests, the machining process makes use of ultrasonic vibrations in…
Plasma Arc Machining is used to remove material from the workpiece. In this process, a high velocity jet of high-temperature gas is used to melt and remove material from the workpiece. This high velocity of hot gas is also known as plasma jet.When a gas or air is heated at a temperature of more than…
