nExamples – Steel, Cast-iron,

nNonferrous – a metal that has no iron in it.

nExamples – Aluminum, Brass, Copper,

nAlloy – is a ______________ of two or more metals.

 

Methods of Shaping or Forming Metal

 

Steel Bar Stock

nBar Stock can be cut to length with a _________ saw, band saw, or cut-off saw.

nBar Stock comes in a variety of shapes.

nThree common shapes are round, ______________ and flat (rectangle).

 

CAM

nComputer Aided Manufacturing

nMachinery run with the help of a _________________

 

Sheet Metal

nStandard Sheet Metal comes basically two ways:

nNon coated steel

nThis type of sheet metal can be _______________.

nGalvanized steel

nThis type of sheet metal has a coating to help it from___________.

nSheet metal is used for office furniture, duct work, cars, containers, etc.

 

Sheet Metal Sizing

nSheet metal comes in a roll or large sheet

nThe thickness of sheet metal is determined with a gauge number.

nThe ____________ the number gauge the thinner the metal.

nExample – 28 gauge is thinner than 24 gauge

 

Cutting Sheet Metal

nCutting by hand

nStraight snip

nAviation snip

nCutting by machine

nShear

Sheet Metal Layout

nLines are drawn on sheet metal with a scriber that scratches a line on the metal.

Bending Sheet Metal

nBox and Pan Brake is usually used in our shop to bend the sheet metal into the

desired shape.

nHems are usually bent onto the edges of sheet metal where it is going to be

exposed, to create a ___________ edge and to strengthen the edge.

nTabs are placed on the corners or sides of sheet metal to help __________ the

sheet metal together.

 

Fastening Sheet Metal

  • Sheet metal screws – size is determined by a _____________ and length.

nRivets

nSolid rivet

nPop rivet

nSize is given in length and ______________

nMaterial is usually _____________ or aluminum.

 

Welding

nAcetylene (Gas)

nThis type of welding uses a _______ and oxygen mixture to create a flame that melts the metal together to fuse it into one.

nArc (MIG)

nMetal Inert Gas

nMIG welding uses an electrical charge at the end of a wire that is fed through a gun, when this wire is very close to the metal it creates an _________ that is hot enough to ____________ the metal.

 

Acetylene (Gas) Welding

nRed or Brown hose and tank represent _____________

nGreen hose and tank represent _______________

nThe tanks should be opened a ___________ a turn.

nThe gas valve on the torch should be opened first

nThe torch should be lit with a flint sparker

nThe torch should be adjusted to a small ____________ cone in the center of the

flame.

nWelding rod is added to the weld for _______________

 

Arc (MIG) Welding

nArc welding uses ________________ to create a arc that melts the metal and a

gas that keeps the weld area clean.

nA wire is fed through a gun to create an arc and _________ metal to the weld.

nThe metal must be ______________ before welding.

nDark lens and a helmet must be used to protect your eyes and skin from the

bright light that is created from the arc.

 

 

 

 

Brazing

nBrazing is done with a gas torch and a special __________ rod that is covered

with a flux to keep the area clean.

nMetal that is brazed is heated red hot, but not melted, then the brass rod is

added to work like an adhesive to hold the metal pieces together.

 

Spot Welding

nSpot welding uses an electrical current that travels through copper rods

touching both sides of the metal being fastened together at an exact point.

At that point it ____________ the metal and welds it together.

 

 

 

WELDING SAFETY

nAlways ______________ yourself and the welding area for work
