1 ABOUT COMPANY
1.1 About history of Larsen and Toubro limited

What began in 1938 with two Danish engineers and a dream is today India’s largest multi–
dimensional engineering and Construction Company.

In 1938, Henning Holck Larsen and Soren K. Toubro set up a partnership in a small office in
downtown Mumbai (then Bombay). The company began as a representative of Danish
manufacturers of dairy and allied equipment’s.

A year later, when World War II broke out, the fledging Company’s genius for innovation
came to the floor. It began to make the products it used to import.

In 1945, L&T appointed dealer of Caterpillar, the American earthmoving machinery giant.
In 1946, the firm became a limited company, and soon a nationwide network of office was
set up. The wheels of growth, which would propel the company to its position of distinction,
had been set into motion, and long before mission statements became industry buzzwords,
L&T had set out a charter for itself, the company would meet the needs of India’s emerging
core sector. Side by side, the business philosophy laid emphasis on customer service.

‘In Service Life Success’ was enshrined as a corporate motto. L&T steadily climbed the list
of the top 200 Indian companies – from 72 in 1966 to 25 in 1973. By then, it had developed
a vast repertoire of skills and a reputation for high quality goods and services.

Over the years, this partnership firm started growing, driven by the vision of its founders. It
converted into a private limited company in 1946 and later acquired the status of a ‘limited’
company in 1950

Definition:

Non-destructive testing (NDT) is a testing and analysis technique used by industry to


evaluate the properties of a material, component, structure or system for characteristic
differences or welding defects and discontinuities without causing damage to the original
part

9.1.1 Visual testing:

Definition:

of facilities, mean inspection of equipment
and structures using naked eye and/or
any non-specialized inspection equipment

FIG 9.1.1 VISUAL TESTING

Tools: include fiberscopes, borescopes, magnifying glasses and mirrors

Portable video inspection unit with zoom allows inspection of large tanks and vessels,
railroad tank cars, sewer lines.

Robotic crawlers permit observation in hazardous or tight areas, such as air ducts, reactors,
pipelines

9.1.2 Magnetic particle test

Definition:

Magnetic Particle Testing (MPT) is a non-destructive testing (NDT) process for


detecting surface and low subsurface discontinuities in ferromagnetic materials such
as iron, nickel, cobalt, and some of their alloys.

FIG 9.1.2 MAGNETIC PARTICLE TEST

Description:
Magnetic particle inspection is one of the simple, fast and traditional non-
destructive testing methods widely used because of its convenience and low cost.
This method uses magnetic fields and small magnetic particles, such as iron filings
to detect flaws in components. The only requirement from an inspect ability
standpoint is that the component being inspected must be made of a ferromagnetic
material such iron, nickel, cobalt, or some of their alloys, since these materials are
materials that can be magnetized to a level that will allow the inspection to be
effective. On the other hand, an enormous volume of structural steels used in
engineering is magnetic.

Gujarat Technological Univesity Page 36


Project ID-206006

Procedure:
In this experiment, commercially available magnetic powder manufactured for NDT
inspection will be used. A strong U shape magnet will be used to provide the
necessary magnetic field at the inspected area. The following steps are applied
during the experiment; 1. The surface of the specimen will be roughly cleaned
wiping with a piece of textile. 2. The fluorescent magnetic spray will be applied on
the surface being inspected. 3. Magnetic field will be applied with a strong magnet
to the location of interest. 4. The spots where the fluorescent magnetic particles
accumulated will be inspected under UV light.

9.1.3 Liquid penetrant test

Definition:
Liquid penetrant testing is a nondestructive material examination procedure used to
check for deficiencies such as cracks by spreading a thin liquid dye onto the
material's surface, followed by the application of a developer

FIG 9.1.3 LIQUID PENETRATION TEST

Description:
In this method the surfaces to be inspected should be free from any coatings, paint,
grease. dirt, dust, etc., therefore, should be cleaned with an appropriate way. Special
care should be taken not to give additional damage to the surface to be inspected
during the cleaning process Surface cleaning can be performed with alcohol. Special
chemicals like cleaner-remover can also be applied if needed. Subsequent to surface
cleaning, the surface is let to dry for 2 minutes.

Gujarat Technological Univesity Page 37


Project ID-206006

Procedure:
Steps used in the experiment:
1. Clean the surface with alcohol and let surface dry for 5 min.
2. Apply the liquid penetrant spray (red can) to the surface and brush for,
further penetration. Then, wait for 20 min.
3. Wipe the surface with a clean textile and subsequently apply remover spray (blue
can) to remove excess residues on the surface and wait for a few min.
4. Apply the developer spray (yellow can). The developer will absorb the penetrant
that infiltrated to the surface features such as cracks, splits, etc., and then reacted
with it to form a geometric shape which is the negative of the geometry of the
surface features from which the penetrant is sucked.
5. The polymerized material may be collected on a sticky paper for future evaluation
and related documentation, if needed.

9.1.4 RADIOGRAPHIC TEST

Definition:
Radiographic testing (or famously known as R.T.) is a process where
penetrating radiation beam passes through a test object. The transmitted
radiation is then collected by a form of sensor that is capable of measuring the
relative intensities of the penetrating radiations imposing upon it.

FIG 9.1.4 RADIOGRAPHIC TEST

Gujarat Technological Univesity Page 38


Project ID-206006

Description:
Radiography provides a permanent reference for the internal soundness of the
object that is radiographed. The x-ray emitted from a source has an ability to
penetrate metals as a function of the accelerating voltage in the x-ray emitting
tube. If a void present in the object being radiographed, more x-rays will pass in
that area and the film under the part in turn will have more exposure than in the
non-void areas. The sensitivity of x-rays is nominally 2% of the materials
thickness. Thus for a piece of steel with a 25mm thickness, the smallest void
that could be detected would be 0.5mm in dimension. For this reason, parts are
often radiographed in different planes. A thin crack does not show up unless the
x-rays ran parallel to the plane 0 the crack. Gamma radiography is identical to
x-ray radiography in function. The difference is the source of the penetrating
electromagnetic radiation which is a radioactive material such m Co 60.
However this method is less popular because of the hazards of handling
radioactive materials.

9.1.5 Ultrasonic test

Definition:
Ultrasonic testing or in short UT refers to a variety of non-destructive testing (NDT)
techniques that use ultrasonic waves to pass through a substance or object.
Ultrasonic waves are high-frequency waves that are passed through different
substances to find flaws or detecting variations in them.

FIG 9.1.5 ULTRASONIC TEST

Procedure:
Steps used in the experiment:
1. The couplant should be applied on the inspected area.
2. For the circular test specimen, the prop will be placed in the corresponding space
Gujarat Technological Univesity Page 39
Project ID-206006

in the supporting fitting tool. Enough couplant should be used between the probe
and tool. For the flat specimen, no tool is needed, couplant only applied between
the inspected surface and the probe.
3. Special attention should be paid on the location where possible cracks exist.
4. A discontinuity like a crack produces a peak on the screen.
5. Attention should also be given to the movement of the possible peak caused by
the cracks on the specimen.

9.2 Destructive test

9.2.1 Impact test

Definition:
Impact testing is also known as ASTM E23. The impact test is a method for
evaluating the toughness, impact strength and notch sensitivity of engineering
materials. Engineers test the ability of a material to withstand impact to predict its
behavior under actual conditions.

FIG 9.2.1 IMPACT TEST

Gujarat Technological Univesity Page 40


Project ID-206006

Procedure:

Steps used in the experiment:


1.A Charpy V-notch specimen is placed across parallel jaws in the impact-testing
machine.
2. The pointer is set up to its maximum value (300 J).

3. The hammer is released from the initial height downward towards the sample.

4.Observations and the energy absorbed are recorded and tabulated.


5.Steps 1-3 are repeated for another specimen.

9.2.2 BENDING TEST


Definition:
A bend test is a method for measuring stiffness and yield properties of certain
materials. Bend tests for ductility provide a simple way to evaluate the quality of
materials by their ability to resist cracking or other surface irregularities during one
continuous bend.

FIG 9.2.2 BENDING TEST

Steps used in the experiment:


1. Take a test specimen of the steel rod.

2. Measure the diameter of the steel rod. Take at least 3 readings and calculate the
mean.

Gujarat Technological Univesity Page 41


Project ID-206006

3. Now place the test specimen in the bending table specimen should be kept in the
bending table in such a way that the plane
4. Intersecting the longitudinal ribs is parallel to the axis of the pin.

5.Select suitable rang of scale.

6. Start the machine and start applying load continuously and uniformly
throughout the bending.
7. As the load is applied on the rod it will start bending. Discontinue the application of load
when the range of bend specified in the material specimen has been achieved before
rebound
8. Take out the specimen and examine the tension surface of the tension surface of
the specimen for cracking.

9.2.3 Ultimate tensile strength


Definition:
The ultimate tensile strength is the maximum on the engineering stress- strain
curve. This corresponds to the maximum stress that can be sustained by a structure
in tension. Ultimate tensile strength is often shortened to “tensile strength”

FIG 9.2.3 ULTIMATE TENSILE STRENGTH

10.. Nesting
Nesting refers to the process of laying out cutting patterns to minimize the raw
material waste. Examples include manufacturing parts from flat raw material
such as sheet metal.
Such efforts can also be applied to additive manufacturing, such as 3D printing.
Here the advantages which can include minimizing tool movement that is not
producing product, or maximizing how many pieces can be fabricated in one build
session. One difference from nesting of cut pieces is that 3D parts often have a cross
section that changes with height, which can cause interference between adjacent
parts as they are built up.

Fig 10.1 SIMPLE RECTANGULAR NESTING

Fig 10.1 IMPROVED NESTING WITH R

10.1PROCESS
To minimize the amount of scrap raw material produced during cutting; companies
use nesting software. The software analyses the parts (shapes) to be produced at a
particular time. Using algorithms, it then determines how to lay these parts out in
such a way as to produce the required quantities of parts, while minimizing the
amount of raw material wasted.

Gujarat Technological Univesity Page 43


Project ID-206006

Off-the-shelf nesting software packages address the optimization needs. While some
cater only to rectangular nesting, others offer profile or shape nesting where the
parts required can be any odd shape.
These irregular parts can be created using popular computer-aided design (CAD)
tools. Most of the profile nesting software can read IGES or DXF profile files
automatically, a few of them work with built-in converters. An important
consideration in shape nesting is to verify that the software in question actually
performs true profile nesting and not just block nesting.
In block nesting an imaginary rectangle is drawn around the shape and then the
rectangles are laid side-by side which actually is not profile nesting. There remains
scope for waste reduction.

10.2 Considerations

Nesting software must take into account the limitations and features of the
machining technology in use, such as:
10.2.1 Machining cannot take place where the raw material is clamped into place;
10.2.2 Some machines can access only half of the material at a particular time;
the machine automatically flips the sheet over to allow the remaining half to be
accessed;
10.2.3 When punching, the width of the punch tool must be considered;
10.2.4 Shearing may be permitted only in certain areas of the sheet due to limitations
of the machinery;
10.2.5 Nesting software may also have to take into account material characteristics,
such as
10.2.6 Defects on material that must be discarded;
10.2.7 Different quality areas that must match corresponding quality levels required
for different parts;
10.2.8 Direction constraints, that may come from a printed pattern or from
fiber direction;
10.2.9 Many machine manufacturers offer their own custom nesting software designed
to offer ease of use and take full advantage of the features of their specific machines.

11. About various cutting machines

 LASER CUTTING
 WATERJET CUTTING
 GAS CUTTING

11.1 Laser cutting

FIG 11.1 LASER CUTTING

● DESCRIPTION
Laser cutting is a technology that uses a laser to vaporize materials, resulting in a
cut edge. While typically used for industrial manufacturing applications, it is now
used by schools, small businesses, architecture, and hobbyists. Laser cutting works
by directing the output of a high-power laser most commonly through optics. The
laser optics and CNC (Computer numerical control) are used to direct the material
or the laser beam generated. A commercial laser for cutting materials uses a motion
control system to follow a CNC or G-code of the pattern to be cut onto the
material. The focused laser beam is directed at the material, which then either
melts, burns, vaporizes away, or is blown away by a jet of gas, leaving an edge
with a high-quality surface finish.

 Process
Generation of the laser beam involves stimulating a lasing material by
electrical discharges or lamps within a closed container. As the lasing
Gujarat Technological Univesity Page 45
Project ID-206006

material is stimulated, the beam is reflected internally by means of a partial


mirror, until it achieves sufficient energy to escape as a stream of
monochromatic coherent light. Mirrors or fiber optics are typically used to
direct the coherent light to a lens, which focuses the light at the work zone.

In order to be able to start cutting from somewhere other than the edge, a pierce
is done before every cut. Piercing usually involves a high-power pulsed laser
beam which slowly makes a hole in the material.
Advantages of laser cutting over mechanical cutting include easier Work holding
and reduced contamination of work piece (since there is no cutting edge which can
become contaminated by the material or contaminate the material). Precision may
be better, since the laser beam does not wear during the process. There is also a
reduced chance of warping the material that is being cut, as laser systems have a
small heat-affected zone. Some materials are also very difficult or impossible to
cut by more traditional means.

11.1.1 Method
11.1.2 Vaporization cutting
In vaporization cutting the focused beam heats the surface of the material to flashpoint point
and generates a keyhole. The keyhole leads to a sudden increase in absorptivity quickly
deepening the hole. As the hole deepens and the material boils, vapor generated erodes the
molten walls blowing eject out and further enlarging the hole. Non melting material such as
wood, carbon and thermoset plastics are usually cut by this method.

11.1.3 Melt and blow


Melt and blow or fusion cutting uses high-pressure gas to blow molten material from the
cutting area, greatly decreasing the power requirement. First the material is heated to melting
point then a gas jet blows the molten material out of the kerf avoiding the need to raise the
temperature of the material any further. Materials cut with this process are usually metals.

11.1.4 Thermal stress cracking


Brittle materials are particularly sensitive to thermal fracture, a feature exploited in thermal
stress cracking. A beam is focused on the surface causing localized heating and thermal
expansion. This results in a crack that can then be guided by moving the beam. The crack can
be moved in order of m/s. It is usually used in cutting of glass.

11.1.5 Stealth dicing of silicon wafers

Gujarat Technological Univesity Page 46


Project ID-206006

The separation of microelectronic chips as prepared in semiconductor device fabrication


from silicon wafers may be performed by the so-called stealth dicing process, which
operates with a pulsed Nd:YAG laser, the wavelength of which (1064 nm) is well adapted
to the electronic band gap of silicon (1.11 eV or 1117 nm).

 Reactive cutting
Also called "burning stabilized laser gas cutting", "flame cutting". Reactive cutting is like
oxygen torch cutting but with a laser beam as the ignition source. Mostly used for cutting
carbon steel in thicknesses over 1 mm. This process can be used to cut very thick steel plates
with relatively little laser power.

11.2 Waterjet cutting

FIG 11.2 WATERJET CUTTING

Cutting with a water jet is a method of engineering for cutting objects using the
energy from high speed, high density, ultra-high-pressure water. The water is
pressurized to a maximum 392 MPa (approximately 4,000 atmospheres) and
projected from a small-bore nozzle (Φ0.1 mm).
Water that has been pressurized by an ultrahigh-pressure pump reaches a speed
approximately three times the speed of sound, producing a water jet with destructive
force.

Gujarat Technological Univesity Page 47


Project ID-206006

Its applications are widespread, with some of its more familiar uses including
cutting roof materials, dashboards and bumpers for automobiles. Cutting and
demolition of concrete structures. It is also used in cutting aircraft fuselages that use
new materials.

11.2.1 Operation
All waterjets follow the same principle of using high pressure water focused into a
beam by a nozzle. Most machines accomplish this by first running the water through
a high-pressure pump. There are two types of pumps used to create this high
pressure; an intensifier pump and a direct drive or crankshaft pump. A direct drive
pump works much like a car engine, forcing water through high pressure tubing
using plungers attached to a crankshaft. An intensifier pump creates pressure by
using hydraulic oil to move a piston forcing the water through a tiny hole. The water
then travels along the high-pressure tubing to the nozzle of the waterjet. In the
nozzle, the water is focused into a thin beam by a jewel orifice. This beam of water
is ejected from the nozzle, cutting through the material by spraying it with the jet of
speed on the order of Mach 3, around 2,500 ft/s (760 m/s). The process is the same
for abrasive waterjets until the water reaches the nozzle. Here abrasives such as
garnet and aluminum oxide, are fed into the nozzle via an abrasive inlet. The
abrasive then mixes with the water in a mixing tube and is forced out the end at high
pressure.

11.2.2 PROCESS
There are six main process characteristics to water jet cutting:
Uses a high velocity stream of ultra-high-pressure water 30,000–90,000 psi (210–
620 MPa) which is produced by a high-pressure pump with possible abrasive
particles suspended in the stream.
Is used for machining a large array of materials, including heat-sensitive, delicate or
very hard materials.
Produces no heat damage to workpiece surface or edges.
Nozzles are typically made of sintered boride or composite tungsten carbide.
Produces a taper of less than 1 degree on most cuts, which can be reduced or
eliminated entirely by slowing down the cut process or tilting the jet.
Distance of nozzle from workpiece affects the size of the kerf and the removal rate
of material. Typical distance is .125 in (3.2 mm).
Temperature is not as much of a factor.

Gujarat Technological Univesity Page 48


Project ID-206006

11.3 Gas cutting


Oxy-fuel cutting (commonly called gas cutting in the United States) is the process
that use fuel gases (or liquid fuels such as gasoline or petrol, diesel, bio diesel,
kerosene etc.) and oxygen to weld or cut metals. Pure oxygen, instead of air, is used
to increase the flame temperature to allow localized melting of the workpiece
material (e.g., steel) in a room environment.
In gas cutting, a torch is used to heat metal to its kindling temperature. A stream of
oxygen is then trained on the metal, burning it into a metal oxide that flows out of
the kerf as dross.
Torches that do not mix fuel with oxygen (combining, instead, atmospheric air) are
not considered oxy-fuel torches and can typically be identified by a single tank
(oxy-fuel cutting requires two isolated supplies, fuel and oxygen). Most metals
cannot be melted with a single-tank torch. Consequently, single-tank torches are
typically suitable for soldering and brazing but not for welding.
The five most commonly used fuel gases are acetylene, propane, MAPP
(methylacetylene-propidine), propylene and natural gas. The relative performance of
the fuel gases in terms of pierce time, cutting speed and cut edge quality, is
determined by the flame temperature and heat distribution within the inner and out
flame cones.

11.3.1 Process
Basically, a mixture of oxygen and the fuel gas is used to preheat the metal to its
'ignition' temperature which, for steel, is 700°C - 900°C (bright red heat) but well
below its melting point. A jet of pure oxygen is then directed into the preheated area
instigating a vigorous exothermic chemical reaction between the oxygen and the
metal to form iron oxide or slag. The oxygen jet blows away the slag enabling the
jet to pierce through the material and continue to cut through the material.

11.3.2 Conditions
The ignition temperature of the material must be lower than its melting point
otherwise the material would melt and flow away before cutting could take place
the oxide melting point must be lower than that of the surrounding material so that it
can be mechanically blown away by the oxygen jet
the oxidation reaction between the oxygen jet and the metal must be sufficient to
maintain the ignition temperature
a minimum of gaseous reaction products should be produced so as not to dilute the
Gujarat Technological Univesity Page 49
Project ID-206006

cutting oxygen
As stainless steel, cast iron and non-ferrous metals form refractory oxides i.e.,
the oxide melting point is higher than the material, powder must be injected into
the flame to form a low melting point, fluid slag.

13.1 Mig welding (METAL INERT GAS WELDING)

Aim-To provide delegates with the necessary skills, knowledge and safe working
practices to enable them to produce a range of welded joints in mild steel using the
metal inert gas shielded welding process.

● Procedure:

GMAW's basic technique is uncomplicated, with most individuals able to achieve


reasonable proficiency in a few weeks, assuming proper training and sufficient practice.
As much of the process is automated, GMAW relieves the welder (operator) of the
burden of maintaining a precise arc length, as well as feeding filler metal into the weld
puddle, coordinated operations that are required in other manual welding processes,
such as shielded metal arc. GMAW requires only that the welder guide the gun with
proper position and orientation along the area being welded, as well as periodically
clean the gun's gas nozzle to remove spatter build-up. Additional skill includes knowing
how to adjust the welder so the voltage, wire feed rate and gas flow rate are correct for
the materials being welded and the wire size being employed.

Maintaining a relatively constant contact tip-to-work distance (the stick-out distance) is


important. Excessive stick-out distance may cause the wire electrode to prematurely
melt, causing a sputtering arc, and may also cause the shielding gas to rapidly disperse,
degrading the quality of the weld. In contrast, insufficient stick-out may increase the
rate at which spatter builds up inside the gun's nozzle and in extreme cases, may cause
damage to the gun's contact tip. Stick-out distance varies for different GMAW weld

Gujarat Technological Univesity Page 53


Project ID-206006

processes and applications.


The orientation of the gun relative to the weldment is also important. It should be held
so as to bisect the angle between the workpiece; that is, at 45 degrees for a fillet weld
and 90 degrees for welding a flat surface. The travel angle, or lead angle, is the angle of
the gun with respect to the direction of travel, and it should generally remain
approximately vertical. However, the desirable angle changes somewhat depending on
the type of shielding gas used—with pure inert gases, the bottom of the torch is often
slightly in front of the upper section, while the opposite is true when the welding
atmosphere is carbon dioxide.

Position welding, that is, welding vertical or overhead joints, may require the use of a
weaving technique to assure proper weld deposition and penetration. In position
welding, gravity tends to cause molten metal to run out of the puddle, resulting in
cratering and undercutting, two conditions that produce a weak weld. Weaving
constantly moves the fusion zone around so as to limit the amount of metal deposited at
any one point. Surface tension then assists in keeping the molten metal in the puddle
until it is able to solidify. Development of position welding skill takes some experience,
but is usually soon mastered.
MIG/MAG is widely used in most industry sectors and accounts for more than 50% of
all weld metal deposited. Compared to MMA, MIG/MAG has the advantage in terms of
flexibility, deposition rates and suitability for mechanization. However, it should be
noted that while MIG/MAG is ideal for 'squirting' metal, a high degree of manipulative
skill is demanded of the MIG welder.

FIG 13.1 MIG WELDING

Gujarat Technological Univesity Page 54


Project ID-206006

13.2 Tig welding

Aim- Tungsten Inert Gas (TIG) welding uses the heat generated by an electric arc
struck between a non-consumable tungsten electrode and the workpiece to fuse
metal in the joint area and produce a molten weld pool. The arc area is shrouded in
an inert or reducing gas shield to protect the weld pool and the non-consumable
electrode.

Procedure-
Manual gas tungsten arc welding is a relatively difficult welding method, due to the
coordination required by the welder. Similar to torch welding, GTAW normally
requires two hands, since most applications require that the welder manually feed a
filler metal into the weld area with one hand while manipulating the welding torch
in the other. Maintaining a short arc length, while preventing contact between the
electrode and the workpiece, is also important.

To strike the welding arc, a high-frequency generator (similar to a Tesla coil)


provides an electric spark. This spark is a conductive path for the welding current
through the shielding gas and allows the arc to be initiated while the electrode and
the workpiece are separated, typically about 1.5–3 mm (0.06–0.12 in) apart.

Once the arc is struck, the welder moves the torch in a small circle to create a
welding pool, the size of which depends on the size of the electrode and the amount
of current. While maintaining a constant separation between the electrode and the
workpiece, the operator then moves the torch back slightly and tilts it backward
about 10–15 degrees from vertical. Filler metal is added manually to the front end of
the weld pool as it is needed.

Welders often develop a technique of rapidly alternating between moving the torch
forward (to advance the weld pool) and adding filler metal. The filler rod is
withdrawn from the weld pool each time the electrode advances, but it is always
kept inside the gas shield to prevent oxidation of its surface and contamination of
the weld. Filler rods composed of metals with a low melting temperature, such as
aluminum, require that the operator maintain some distance from the arc while
staying inside the gas shield. If held too close to the arc, the filler rod can melt
before it makes contact with the weld puddle. As the weld nears completion, the arc
current is often gradually reduced to allow the weld crater to solidify and prevent
the formation of crater cracks at the end of the weld.

Project ID-206006

FIG 13.2 TIG WELDING

13.3 Arc welding

Objective-Arc welding is a welding process that is used to join metal to metal by


using electricity to create enough heat to melt metal, and the melted metals, when
cool, result in a binding of the metals.

Operation
Arc welding is a fusion welding process used to join metals. An electric arc from an
AC or DC power supply creates an intense heat of around 6500°F which melts the
metal at the join between two work pieces. The arc can be either manually or
mechanically guided along the line of the join, while the electrode either simply
carries the current or conducts the current and melts into the weld pool at the same
time to supply filler metal to the join.

Because the metals react chemically to oxygen and nitrogen in the air when heated
to high temperatures by the arc, a protective shielding gas or slag is used to
minimize the contact of the molten metal with the air. Once cooled, the molten
metals solidify to form a metallurgical bond.

Gujarat Technological Univesity Page 56


Project ID-206006

Arc welding provides a plethora of advantages compared to other types of welding.


These advantages include:

Low cost. This is an affordable technique because the cost of equipment is low. It
also requires less equipment due to the lack of gas.
Portability. The materials in this technique are easy to transport.
Used on unclean metals. Arc welding can be performed on dirty metals.
Work in any environment. A lot of arc processes use shielding gas so work can only
be done in one place. With arc welding, there is no need for shielding gas so work
can happen regardless of weather conditions.

 Arc Weld Disadvantages


While there are many great benefits to arc welding, there are also some
shortcomings. These disadvantages include:

Cost. While cost is considered an advantage, it is also a disadvantage because it


produces more metal waste than other methods, resulting in higher project costs.
Requires a high level of skill and training. Not all operators have a high level of
training and skills.
Thin metal. Arc welding does not work well on certain thin metals.

Advantages:
It provide higher deposition rate.
It is faster comparing to arc welding because it supply filler material continuously.
It produce clean weld with better quality.
There is no slag formation.
Minimize weld defects.
This welding produces very little slag.
It can be used to make deep groove weld.
It can be easily automated.

Gujarat Technological Univesity Page 57

Disadvantages:
It cannot be used for welding in difficult to reach portions.
Higher initial or setup cost.
It cannot be used for outdoor work because wind can cause damage of gas shield.
It required high skilled labor.

Objective-
Spot welding (also known as resistance spot welding) is a resistance welding
process. This welding process is used primarily for welding two or more metal
sheets together by applying pressure and heat from an electric current to the weld
area.

Procedure
Spot welding involves three stages; the first of which involves the electrodes being
brought to the surface of the metal and applying a slight amount of pressure. The
current from the electrodes is then applied briefly after which the current is removed
but the electrodes remain in place for the material to cool. Weld times range from
0.01 sec to 0.63 sec depending on the thickness of the metal, the electrode force and
the diameter of the electrodes themselves. [citation needed]
The equipment used in the spot-welding process consists of tool holders and
electrodes. The tool holders function as a mechanism to hold the electrodes firmly in
place and also support optional water hoses that cool the electrodes during welding.
Tool holding methods include a paddle-type, light duty, universal, and regular
offset. The electrodes generally are made of a low resistance alloy, usually copper,
and are designed in many different shapes and sizes depending on the application
needed.

The two materials being welded together are known as the workpiece and must
conduct electricity. The width of the workpiece is limited by the throat length of the
welding apparatus and ranges typically from 5 to 50 inches (13 to 130 cm).
Workpiece thickness can range from 0.008 to 1.25 inches (0.20 to 32 mm.

After the current is removed from the workpiece, it is cooled via the coolant holes in
the center of the electrodes. Both water and a brine solution may be used as coolants
in spot welding mechanisms.

In the case of resistance spot welding, there are two main parts of the tooling
system, the features of which fundamentally influence the whole process: the gun
and its type, and the size and shape of the electrode. In such application, where the
gun layout should be as rigid as possible due to the high applying forces (e.g.
welding of thick materials), the C-type gun is widely used. As well as the high
Gujarat Technological Univesity Page 59
Project ID-206006

resulting rigidity, this arrangement leads to a high tooling flexibility, as the motion
of the electrodes is collinear. Unlike the C-type, the so-called X-type arrangement
provides less rigidity, although the reachable workspace is far larger than with the
C-type, thus this layout is very common, where thin and flat objects are being
processed (e.g. manufacturing of floor pan or roof panel). However, it offers less
flexibility in terms of tooling, because the paths of the moving electrodes are not
collinear (like the tips of a scissor), so a dome-shaped electrode tip should be used.

Electrodes used in spot welding can vary greatly with different applications. Each
tool style has a different purpose. Radius style electrodes are used for high heat
applications, electrodes with a truncated tip for high pressure, eccentric electrodes
for welding corners, offset eccentric tips for reaching into corners and small spaces,
and finally offset truncated for reaching into the workpiece itself.

14.8 K type thermocouples

14.9 What is a Thermocouple?

Thermocouples are electronic sensors, used for temperature monitoring. Thermocouples


come in different grades or types. The two most common are the J-type thermocouple
and K-type thermocouple. There are however several others. Type T, N, E, B, R, and S.
J, K, T, and E types are known as “base metal thermocouples” and are more common.
R, S, and B are made from Noble Metals. They are used in very high-temperature
applications. The below table illustrates the different Thermocouple types, their
composition, and temperature ranges.

Gujarat Technological Univesity Page 63


Project ID-206006

How Do Thermocouples Work?


A thermocouple converts temperature to a small DC Voltage. As you can see from the
above table, they consist of two dissimilar metal wires that meet in two or more places.
The output voltage changes in a linear manner with the temperature difference between
the two junctions. When the temperature is high, the greater the DC Voltage output. It is
a good practice to protect your thermocouple with a suitable coating or tube. Typically,
a metal coating or a ceramic tube is used to protect the thermocouple wires from
damage.

What is a K Type Thermocouple?


The K-type thermocouple is probably the most common type. Its low cost and relatively
good accuracy together with a wide temperature range make it a versatile sensor. They
are suitable for continuous exposure to temperatures around 1,100°C, with a max temp
of 1,372°C (-328°F to 2,501°F).

Different thermocouple types utilize various metals for their positive and negative
wires. K-type thermocouples are nickel-based, and therefore also have good resistance
to corrosion. This makes them suitable for use in oxidizing atmospheres. K-type
thermocouples utilize Chromel, Nickel-Chromium (10% chromium) for the Positive
leg. The Negative leg is Alumel, Nickel-Aluminum (5% aluminum). The accuracy of a
K-type Thermocouple is typically a maximum of +/- 2.2°C or +/- 0.75%, whichever is
greater. However, there can be differences between different thermocouples, ven
coming from the same production batch due to deviations in the alloys. It is therefore
recommended that thermocouples undergo individual calibration.

K-type thermocouples are found in use for many industries such as water, chemical and
gas, and food industries. They are one of the more inexpensive thermocouples with
good resistance to oxidization, good linearity of measurement, and stability.

What Are K Thermocouples Used for?

They’re generally employed in applications when the temperature is above 550°C and
the thermocouple’s maximum operating pressure is reached.

 They are used in many industries like Steel & Iron to monitor temperature &
chemistry throughout the steelmaking process
 Used for testing temperatures associated with process plants e.g.,
chemical production and petroleum refineries
 Used for Testing heating appliance safety
 Type K is commonly used in nuclear applications because of its relative radiation
Gujarat Technological Univesity Page 64
Project ID-206006

hardness.
Type thermocouples are inexpensive, small, dependable, and have fast reaction times.
They can measure a wide range of temperatures from -270°C to 1,372°C with a small
degree of error. Typically, K-type thermocouples are used in temperatures above
540°C and in oxidizing atmospheres.

14.10 CAPACITOR DICHARGE WELDING

WHAT IS STUD WELDING?

Stud Welding is an economical & fast method of welding studs. It can weld studs of
different diameters & shapes onto the parent material. Unlike other forms of joining
that require operations such as tapping and drilling, Stud Welding is done onto the
parent material without creating holes. The portability of stud welding machines, easy
operation, and cost-effectiveness are a few biggest reasons it is one of the widely
preferred welding options worldwide.

TYPES OF STUD WELDING


Stud Welding is categorized into two major types- Capacitor Discharge (CD), Welding
& Drawn Arc (DA) Welding. Wondering which one is better? Well, both are equally
important types of Stud Welding. Choosing the suitable process involves a careful
decision based on the parent material, required weld strength, the diameter of the stud,

Gujarat Technological Univesity Page 65


Project ID-206006

the thickness of the parent material, and required welding aesthetics. Drawn Arc (DA)
Welding is majorly used for heavy parent materials & high diameter studs. In contrast,
CD Welding is used for thin parent materials.

INTRODUCTION TO CAPACITOR DISCHARGE STUD


WELDING

Capacitor Discharge Stud Welding is an affordable, fast type of welding. Using


lightweight, portable capacitor discharge welding machines like the ones at Artech are
highly beneficial for industries & enterprises. CD stud welding eliminates processes
such as drilling, punching, tapping, riveting, screwing, and more. It is highly beneficial
when the parent material is thin. CD welding does not need flux. The weld time is
shorter, and it enables the weld to bond with minor oxidation; In this welding method, a
small projection/pip at the end of the stud comes in contact with the workpiece. The
energy from the charged capacitors gets discharged across the point of contact resulting
in stud projection melting and creating a molten pool in the parent material. During the
process, the stud is pushed into the workpiece under controlled pressure to complete the
weld. The best part, it all happens really quick!

14.11 ADVANTAGES OF CAPACITOR DISCHARGE STUD


WELDING

CD Stud Welding is perfect for flawlessly welding studs.


It is ideal for applications where minimal or no marking on the backside is desirable.
The Capacitor Discharge Welding Machines are portable. It is considered lightweight
welding equipment.
The weld cycles are short and work under low temperatures. Weld time is between 1
and 6 milliseconds.
CD Stud Welding can be used on thin parent material.
The process is time-saving and cost-effective.
No additional material necessary, such as flux, inert gas, etc.

16. VARIOUS MACHINING PROCESS

FIG 16.1 DRILLING MACHINE

Types of Drilling Machines:

1. Radial drilling machine


2. Upright drilling machine
3. Automatic drilling machine
4. Multiple Spindle drilling machine
5. Deep hole drilling machine
6. Sensitive drilling machine
7. Portable drilling machine
8. Gang drilling machine

1. Radial Drilling Machine

Drilling Machine is to make circular holes on the components with the help of Drill bits.
But, the purpose of the Radial Drilling Machine is used to drill the holes in the given
radial distance and this will be used, when the component size is large in terms of
height.
Gujarat Technological Univesity Page 70
Project ID-206006

When the component is large, it cannot fit its structure in the Machine vice. Therefore,
the component has to be placed on the ground and the Radial arm of the drilling
machine has to be rotated w.r.t the component to do the operation.
The Angle of a Drill bit is 118 Degrees.

Working Principle of Radial Drilling Machine:

When the power supply is given, the spindle rotates which was in conjunction with the
motor. The Radial arm is adjusted w.r.t the type of operation and height of the
workpiece. The spindle is connected to the chuck and the drill bit is placed in between
the jaws of the chuck. The Drill head is adjusted on to the workpiece and a suitable feed
is given. Then the drill bit drives into the workpiece very easily. Drive Mechanism:
Rack and Pinion Mechanism
When the hand wheel is rotated, then the Pinion which is attached to the rack also
rotates which can convert the rotary motion to the linear motion and the driving
mechanism is called as Rack and Pinion mechanism.

Construction of Radial Drilling Machine:

The setup essentially consists of


Base
Column
Radial Arm
Motor for elevating the arm
Elevating screw
Guideways
Motor for driving drill spindle
Drill head
Drill spindle
Table

Base: It is made up of Cast Iron which possesses high compressive strength and good
wear resistance. The base is used to support the assembly of parts on it and also absorbs
the vibrations induced by the machine parts.

Column: It is exactly placed at one end of a bed which can act as a support for rotating
the radial arm in 360 degrees.

Gujarat Technological Univesity Page 71


Project ID-206006

Radial Arm: It is the arm which is connected to Column. The Drill head is slided from
one end to another end by the guideways.

Motor: It is placed on the drill head for driving the work unit (Spindle of the Drill bit)

Table: The machine vice is connected to a swivel table which can hold the workpiece
for further operation.

Flywheel or Hand wheel: It is connected to the spindle arrangement which is used to


move up and down w.r.t. the workpiece.

Drive Head: It generally consists of two levers which by varying can increase or
decrease the speed of chuck.

Chuck: One end of the chuck is connected to the spindle arrangement and another end is
connected to the drill bit(tool).

Tool-Drill bit: The drill bit is used to drill the holes on the specimens.

 Workpiece: It has to be fixed in the machine vice provided on the table.

 16.2 DRILLING

Drilling operation removes the material from the inside of a workpiece. The result of
drilling is a hole with a diameter equal to the size of the utilized drill bit. Drill bits are
usually positioned either on a tailstock or a lathe tool holder.

FIG 16.2 DRILLING

Gujarat Technological Univesity Page 72


Project ID-206006

 16.3 REAMING

Reaming is a sizing operation that enlarges the hole in the workpiece. In reaming
operations, reamer enters the workpiece axially through the end and expands an existing
hole to the diameter of the tool. Reaming removes a minimal amount of material and is
often performed after drilling to obtain both a more accurate diameter and a smoother
internal finish.

17. SAND BLASTING

17.1 Definition:
Sandblasting, where an abrasive is fed into a high air flow directed to a surface at a
pressure of a few bars, is a common method to clean or increase the surface roughness in
many industrial applications.

17.2 Description:
Sandblasting is process of smoothing and cleaning a hard surface by forcing solid particles
across that surface at high speeds using compressed air. There are two kinds of
sandblasters: “Suction” / “Siphon”” & “Pressure” Blast Systems. There are two basic kinds
of sand blasters: Blast Cabinets & Portable Blasters. Our project used the suction/siphon
system in a blast cabinet.

FIG 17.1 SAND BLASTING MACHINE

A sandblasting system includes four basic components: the air source, the sandblasting
cabinet, the dust collector, and the blasting media. The air source is usually bottle gas or an
air compressor. The sandblasting cabinet holds the object being blasted, while the dust
collector removes dust from the cabinet. The materials used in sandblasting, whether sand
or not, are referred to as blast media.

Procedure:

Gujarat Technological Univesity Page 74


Project ID-206006

Sandblasting can remove paint, rust, and residue from oxidation from materials quickly and
efficiently. Sandblasting can also be used to change the condition of a metal’s surface, such
as through removing scratches or casting marks. Sandblasting as a cleaning method has
been widely used for over a hundred years.

Materials Used, Pros and Cons Sandblasting is also known as abrasive blasting. Basically,
it is the operation of forcibly propelling a stream of abrasive material against a surface.
The
sandblasting operation is done under high pressure to smooth a rough surface, roughen a
smooth/Shape the surface to remove its contaminants. There are several variants of
sandblasting process like bead blasting, Soda blasting and shot blasting. Before
sandblasting, it is mandatory to know about its materials and the pros and cons. If your job
profile is related to sandblasting or you owned a company that involved in the same
process, you need to stay with us. In this article, we will discuss sand blasting machines
materials and its pros and cons. But before it, let me also clear some of the details of its
operation.

18. COATING

Definition:
A coating is a covering that is applied to the surface of an object, usually referred to as the
substrate. The purpose of applying the coating may be decorative, functional, or both.

Procedure and description


Paints and lacquers are coatings that mostly have dual uses of protecting the substrate and
being decorative, although some artist’s paints are only for decoration, and the paint on
large industrial pipes is for preventing corrosion and identification e.g., blue for process
water, red for fire-fighting control etc.

Functional coatings may be applied to change the surface properties of the substrate, such
as adhesion, wettability, corrosion resistance, or wear resistance. In other cases, e.g.,
semiconductor device fabrication (where the substrate is a wafer), the coating adds a
completely new property, such as a magnetic response or electrical conductivity, and forms
an essential part of the finished product.

A major consideration for most coating processes is that the coating is to be applied at a
controlled thickness, and a number of different processes are in use to achieve this control,
ranging from a simple brush for painting a wall, to some very expensive machinery
applying coatings in the electronics industry. A further consideration for ‘non-all-over’
coatings is that control is needed as to where the coating is to be applied. A number of these
non-all-over coating processes are printing processes.

Many industrial coating processes involve the application of a thin film of functional
material to a substrate, such as paper, fabric, film, foil, or sheet stock. If the substrate starts
and ends the process wound up in a roll, the process may be termed “roll-to-roll” or “web-
based” coating. A roll of substrate, when wound through the coating machine, is typically
called a web.

Coatings may be applied as liquids, gases or solids e.g., Powder coatings.

19. PAINTING

Painting is defined as the process of applying paint, or another medium, to a solid surface
– usually a canvas. Paints or other forms of color are commonly applied to using a
paintbrush.

19.1 Description:

Painting is the act or process of using paint. The paint can create an artwork known as
a painting, or it can be used more practically as a protective coating or form of
decoration. Paintings are a form of visual art that captures the expression of ideas and
emotions on a two-dimensional surface.

19.2 Procedure:

Instructions

1. Remove Old Paint and Rust

Use a wire brush to remove any loose or flaking paint and as much surface rust as
possible. If a handheld wire brush is ineffective, consider using a wire brush attachment
for your drill for highly degraded surfaces. If the rust has penetrated deep into the
surface, soak the object in an appropriate rust remover and follow all steps as specified
by the manufacturer. Wipe the surface with a damp cloth to clean any dust, debris, or
rust that’s leftover. Remove remaining grease by wiping the metal with a shop rag
dipped in acetone. Allow the acetone to dry.

2. Scuff Up the Metal

If the metal doesn’t have paint on it or it’s smooth, take a scuffing pad and rub it along
the metal. These pads will lightly etch the surface of the metal, which will allow the
primer to stick more effectively.

3. Prime the Metal

If you couldn’t get rid of all the rust in the previous step, coat the metal with a zinc
chromate primer that’s formulated for coating rust. After you have coated the area with
this special primer, then apply a coat of self-etching primer. This primer should be
specifically designated for metal, including a self-etching component. Read the label to
verify that metals are an intended surface. The last consideration for primer is to be sure
the primer is compatible with the paint you want to use since a primer can be either oil-
Gujarat Technological Univesity Page 78
Project ID-206006

based or water-based.
Closely follow the instructions on the primer label since they have different drying and
cure times. If the metal is going outdoors, consider adding a second layer of primer to
help prolong metal oxidation.

4. Apply Paint

If you’re debating whether to use spray paint or a paintbrush, the easiest way to paint
metal is to use a can of spray paint. It is faster, but it does not create as hard of a finish.

Here’s how to use spray paint:

Shake the can several times to mix the paint.


Hold the can 6 to 12 inches away from the metal, which will prevent the paint from
pooling. Spray the object using long, sweeping motions (don’t hold it in one spot). If
you notice excessive dripping, wipe clean, back up, and start the process again.
For best results, apply up to three thin coats of spray paint and allow the paint to dry
before applying an additional layer.
If you want a longer-lasting finish, brush on the paint using oil-based paint. By painting
the metal object with a brush, you can create a thick surface that will be more durable.

Painting metal using a paintbrush:

Mix the paint according to the manufacturer’s specifications. If the paint feels too thick,
it might need to be cut with some mineral spirits.
Once the paint is a desirable consistency, use a high-quality natural bristle brush to paint
on a thin layer.

5. Allow the Paint to Cure

The metal needs to cure for 36 to 48 hours before moving it. Ensure the object is in an
area that won’t be affected by extreme temperatures or direct sunlight when drying.

20. STACKING & PACKAGING


Plastic wrap, cling film, Saran wrap, cling wrap, is a thin plastic film typically used for
sealing items in to keep them over a longer period of time.
Material Stacking

Practicing safe stacking and racking avoids serious injuries caused by stockpile
collapses or by retrieving materials from improperly collected stacks. Safe stacking
reduces injury and fire risks, enhancing the efficiency of site paths of traffic.

21. General Stacking Points

Prioritize the use of machines, tools, and equipment to reduce manual and stacking of
materials.
While material is being lowered by machine, keep hands clear of load and use other
means (e.g., taglines or rigid poles) to direct materials.
Wear appropriate work gloves and safety boots when manually moving and stacking
sharp edges, burrs, splinters, or heavy loads.
Only stack material in designated areas. Never stack near doorways, access ways or fire
escape routes.
Never make stacks higher than 3 times the minimum base width, or angle of the repose,
which is lower.
Step back material as you stack to promote stability and always stack on a level surface.
Load the stack with consideration of the order in which the materials will be unloaded.
Stage materials close to work area to reduce amount of handling.
Bricks, Blocks and Palletized Material
Always try and ensure base of stack is level.
Ensure upper pack is loaded squarely on to a lower one.
If banding or packing is damaged, or materials are shifting or leaking out, do not stack
other materials on top.
Leave sufficient aisle way space between pallets, bales, etc. for safe removal.
Store pallets laying down flat Pipes and Tubes Where pipes are small in diameter, stack
in racks.
If large in diameter, securely chock, or secure, against rolling.
Don’t stack loosely or unsecured in pyramids as they can become unstable.
Laying large concrete rings flat

24. CONCLUSION

After the internship was over I have learned about heat treatment process of parts of
Pinaka launcher and the main thing I have learned from internship is that they have
given me a task to reduce transportation cost of mobility of underframe structure
that is a part of Pinaka launcher and the problem was that only one underframe can
be load on a trailer and to load another underframe was not possible so that is when
I gave a solution about “stacking of underframe structure “ and that is to put another
underframe on each other with the help of wooden block in between so that the floor
space area required is less and the trailer can now load three underframe structures
at a time so the transportation cost is reduced and also learned knowledge of various
cutting operations and nondestructive testing methods .
