The pattern must be made oversize to compensate for contraction of liquid metal on cooling. This addition to the dimension of the pattern is known as shrinkage allowance.
The pattern must be made oversize for machining purposes so that the required dimensions and surface finish can be achieved by removing material from the casting. This extra amount of dimensions provided in the pattern is known as Machining allowance.
KSC-STIST 27
When a pattern is removed from a mould, the tendency to tear away the edges of the mould is greatly reduced if the vertical surfaces of the pattern are tapered inwards. The provision of taper on vertical faces of the pattern is called DRAFT.

Distortion allowances are applied to casting of irregular shapes that are distorted in cooling because of metal shrinkage

Process of forming metals into desired shapes by passing the metal in between a pair of rolls. The rolls squeeze the metal to reduce its cross section while increasing its length. The process of rolling basically consists of passing metal between two rolls rotating in opposite directions at the same speed. HOT ROLLING is the process in which metal is fed to the rolls after being heated above the recrystallization temperature. In COLD ROLLING, metal is fed to the rolls when it is below the recrystallization temperature.

Consists of three rolls positioned one over the other. The upper and lower rolls rotate in the same direction, while the middle roll rotates in the opposite direction. The work piece is made to pass in one direction between the upper and the middle rolls in the first pass. Then between the middle and the lower rolls in the opposite direction during the second pass. The middle roll is kept fixed and the upper and lower rolls are moved to adjust the roll gap.

The joint area of the parts are heated to plastic state and forced together by external force. Eg: Forge welding, Resistance welding.
The joint area of the parts are heated to fusion state (molten state), and a joint is formed as a result of solidification. Eg: Arc Welding, Gas welding, Thermit welding.

In this process, the work piece to be joined are held together and a strong electric current of low voltage (6 to 10 volts) and high amperage (60 to 4000 amperage) is passed through them. When the current passes through the metal, the high resistance at the point of contact raises the temperature at the junction. The mechanical pressure applied at this moment completes the weld

FLASH WELDING

Used for making lap welds in thin sheets Sheets are held between metal electrodes Secondary current from transformer is passed between the electrodes, causing the metal temperature in contact spot to be rapidly raised to welding temperature. The weld at this contact spot is then completed by applying pressure by the electrodes itself. Used for welding ferrous and non-ferrous alloys.
KSC-STIST
81
Work pieces of the same cross section are held in suitable clamps butting each other. The current is switched on and the contacting surface gets fused and joined by mechanical pressure.
Similar to butt welding The ends of the work pieces to be welded are put together and the required current is passed through the work pieces. Sudden separation of the ends by a short distance produces an arc in the space between the work resulting very high heat. Immediately the current is cut off and work pieces are joined together by pressure
KSC-STIST 82
Similar to Spot welding The electrodes are disk shaped rollers The electrode roll over the sheet and a continuous weld is obtained. The current passing from wheel to wheel through the work pieces heats the parts to be joined and due to the pressure, the weld is formed. Also known as CONTINOUS SPOT WELD PROCESS. Used for welding sheet metals, radiator, drums etc.
KSC-STIST 83
Modification of Spot welding The current and pressure are localized at the weld section by the use of some projections on one or both pieces of the work. The flattening out of these projections under pressure results in good welds at all points of contact.

The source of heat in Arc welding is an electric arc. The electric arc develops when current flows across the air gap between the end of metal electrode and the work surface. This arc is strong stable electric discharge occurring in the air gap between an electrode and the work. The temperature of this arc is about 3600C which can melt and fuse the metal very quickly to produce joint. The temperature of the arc at the centre is around 6500C. Only 60 to 70% of the heat is utilized in arc welding to heatup and melt the metal. The remaining 40 to 30% is dissipated into surroundings. The principle of arc welding is based upon the formation of an electric arc between a consumable electrode (bare or coated) and the base metal. The heat of the arc is concentrated at the point of welding; as a result, it melts the electrode and base metal. When the weld metal solidifies, the slag gets deposited on its surface as it is lighter than metal and weld metal is allowed to cool gradually and slowly. After cooling (solidification) a sound joint is formed. The slag is removed by chipping hammer.

In Gas welding, the heat necessary for melting base metal and filler rod is obtained by gas flame. The composition of filler rod is same as that of the base metal. In Oxy-Acetylene welding, heat is produced by burning acetylene in the presence of oxygen at the tip of a nozzle which is fitted to a torch body. The temperature of the oxy-acetylene flame is 3250C and is used to melt parent metal to form a weld pool. No flux is used for gas welding and the molten metal is protected by gaseous products of the flame.
