LAP JOINT

Aim

To join the given two work pieces as a lap joint by arc welding.

Material used

Mild Steel plates.

Tools required

  1. Welding power supply 
  2. Flat file
  3. Welding rod
  4. Chipping hammer
  5. Electrode holder
  6. Wire brush
  7. Gloves and apron
  8. Earthing clamps
  9. Shield and goggles

  • Procedure

    1. The given workpieces are thoroughly cleaned, i.e. rust, scales are removed and the edges are filed.
    2. The electrode is held in an electrode holder and ground clamp is clamped to the welding plates and the power is supplied.
    3. The workpieces are positioned on the table to form a “Lab joint”.
    4. The tag weld is done on the both the ends of joining plates to avoid the movement of workpieces during welding.
    5. The welding is carried throughout the length of the workpieces on both sides by maintaining 3mm gap between plates and the welding rod.
    6. The welded plates are allowed for air cooling after the slags are removed.
    7. The weld joint portions are cleaned by wire brush.


    Result


    Thus the required Lap joint is made by arc welding process.

    Fluid mechanics VIVA QUESTIONS and ANSWERS

    1. Define density? Ans: It is defined as the ratio of mass per unit volume of the fluid. 2. Define viscosity? Ans: It is defined as the property of fluid which offers resistance to the movement of fluid over another adjacent layer of the fluid. 3. Differentiate between real fluids and ideal fluids? Ans: A fluid, which is in-compressible and is having no viscosity, is known as ideal fluid while the fluid, which possesses viscosity, is known as real fluid. 4. What is a venturimeter?

    TIN SMITHY & Sheet metal

    TIN SMITHY Introduction : Many engineering and house articles such as boxes, cans, funnels, ducts etc. are made from a flat sheet of metal. The process being known as tin smithy. For this the development of the article is first drawn on the sheet metal, then cut and folded, to form the required shape of the article. Allowance should be given in the drawing stage for folding and bending. This allowance depends upon the radius of the bend and thickness of the sheet metal. Sheet Metal Materials : A variety of metals are used in a sheet metal shop such as galvanized Iron, black, Iron, tin, Stainless Steel, copper and Aluminium. Hand Tools : The common hand tools used in sheet metal work are steel, try square, Wire gauge, Scriber, Ball peen hammer, Nylon Mallet, Snips Divider, Stakes, Cutting plier and Soldering Iron. Here, the details of tools that are being equipped by our workshop purpose only are presented. Wire Gauge: The thickness of sheet is referred in numbers known ...

    Coordinate systems in AutoCAD

    World Coordinate System (WCS), User Coordinate System (UCS). There is 4 AutoCAD coordinates system you should know. Absolute coordinate system , Relative Rectangular coordinate system, Relative Polar coordinate system and Interactive system(Direct coordinate system). Absolute Coordinate system: Absolute Coordinates uses the Cartesian System to specify a position in the X, Y, and (if needed) Z axes to locate a point from the 0-X, 0-Y, and 0-Z (0,0,0) point. To locate a point using the Absolute Coordinate system, type the X-value, Y-value, and, if needed, the Z-value separated by commas (with no spaces). Syn: Enter LINE command: L [Enter] Start line at point A: 0,0 [Enter] End first line at point B: 2,2 [Enter] End of second line at point C: 2,3 [Enter] Examples shown bellow.
