INTRODUCTION OF HEAVY WELDING SHOP:
In the DLW there are basically three type of welding used in HWS. The welding quality of DLW is very high quality. After the machining process we can’t say that this piece is not single piece. 1. Submerged arc welding 2. Manual metal arc welding 3. MIG welding
SUBMERGED ARC WELDING: In submerged arc welding the welding process will be covered with the flux so that it will not react with oxygen and nitrogen. Because of the versatility of the process and the simplicity of its equipment and operation, shielded metal arc welding is one of the world's most popular welding processes. It dominates other welding processes in the maintenance and repair industry, and though flux-cored arc welding is growing in popularity, SMAW continues to be used extensively in the construction of steel structures and in industrial fabrication. The process is used primarily to weld ironand ironand steels (including stainless steel) but steel) but aluminium, aluminium, nickel nickel and copperalloys and copperalloys can also be welded with this method.
GMAW COMPONENTS: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6.
DC or Direct Current power supply Electrode or wire feed controller Wire drive roller assembly Shielding gas source (cylinder) & regulator Manually held Gun & ground clamps Wire reel
MIG WELDING: MIG welding can be used for most types of metals; steel, stainless steel, as well as aluminium. But welding aluminium is very different from welding mild steel because aluminium is a metal that is different from steel. So when we weld aluminium, we have to use other parameters, other settings. Aluminium has a lower melting temperature than mild steel, for example, so you should expect that we should use a lower heat input but in spite of this. So we have to use a higher local heat-input but a faster welding speed than with steel to get good fusion and penetration. This sounds as if aluminium welding is difficult, but it's not. The welding sets that we use adjust the welding parameters automatically, so the welder can concentrate on the welding operation, the movement of the welding gun and the weld pool.

INTRODUCTION TO MACHIN SHOP
Machine shop work is generally understood to include all cold-metal work by which an operator, using either power driven equipment or hand tools, removes a portion of the metal and shapes it to some specified form or size. It does not include sheet metal work and coppersmithing. The function of all machine tools is to produce metal parts by changing the shape, size, or finish of a piece of material. The shape of a part made with a machine tool is limited by the types of motion the tool can apply. Standard machine tools are grouped in six basic classes: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6.
LATHES DRILLING MACHINES SHAPERS PLANERS MILLING MACHINES GRINDING MACHINES
LATHE: The lathe is used for turning various metals against a cutting tool that shapes it to the desired product. The engine lathe is a machine tool that produces a cutting action by rotating the work piece against the cutting edge of the tool.
DRILLING MACHINES: The drilling machine is a machine tool that produces the necessary cutting action by the rotation of a multiple edge cutting tool.
SHAPING AND PLANING MACHINES: Both of these machines can machine flat surfaces with a single point reciprocating, motion is applied to both the work piece and tool in these machines.
MILLING MACHINES: A milling machine provides cutting action to a rotating tool. The ve rtical milling machine is used to cut, shape, and finish metal objects.
GRINDING MACHINES A grinder differs from other machines in that it uses a tool made of emery, Carborundum, or similar materials. The wheel, made up of many tiny cutting points, cuts with the entire entire surface area that comes in contact with with the material being ground. Grinders cut with a grinding action, removing material material in the form of tiny particles.
SAFETY RULES FOR MACHINE TOOLS: The following are general safety rules for any machine tool: 1. Gears, pulleys, belts, couplings, ends of shafts having keyways, and other revolving or reciprocating parts should be guarded to a height of 6 feet above the floor. The guards should be removed only for repairing or adjusting the machine and must be replaced before operating it. 2. Safety setscrews should be used in collars and on all revolving or reciprocating members of the machine tool or its equipment. 3. Do not operate any machine tool without proper lighting. u ntil you fully understand how 4. Never attempt to operate any machine tool until it works and know how to stop it quickly. 5. Never wear loose or torn clothing and a nd secure long hair, since these items can become caught in revolving machine parts. Ties should be removed and shirt sleeves should be rolled up above the elbow. 6. Gloves should never be worn when operating machinery except when absolutely necessary. 7. Always stop the machine before cleaning it or taking measurements of the work piece. 8. Do not lubricate a machine while it is in motion. Injury to the operator and damage to the machine may result from this practice. 9. Always wear safety glasses or goggles while operating machine tools. Also, wear respiratory protection if operation creates hazardous dust. All persons in the area where power tools are being operated should also wear safety eye protection and respirators as needed. 10. Know where tire extinguishers are located in the shop area and how to use them. 11. Never Never wear jewellery while working around machine tools. Rings, watches, or bracelets maybe caught in a revolving part which could result in the hand being pulled into the machine. 12. Avoid horseplay. Tools are very sharp and machines are made of hard steel. An accidental slip or fall may cause a serious injury. Never use compressed air without a safety nozzle to clean machines or 13. Never clothing. It will blow sharp, dangerous metal chips a long distance. 14. Never Never place tools or other materials on the machine table. Cluttering up a machine with tools or materials creates unsafe working conditions. Use a bench or table near the machine for this purpose. 15. Always use a rag when handling sharp cutters such as milling cutters and end mills.
