SOLUTIONS
S1. Ans(d)
Sol. Anisotropy in rolled component is caused by directional grain deformation.
S2. Ans(c)
Sol.
S3. Ans(d)
Sol. forging gives the directional grain formation which causes improve the physical properties of material.
S4. Ans(b)
Sol. forging increases the strength and toughness of material.
S5. Ans(b)
Sol.
S6. Ans(b)
Sol. In hot die forging, thin layer of material all around the forging is flash the width of it is an indicator of the pressure developed in the cavity.
S7. Ans(a)
Sol. closed die forging requires the provision of gutters to provide space for excess material and ensures complete closure of die and defect free forged part.
S8. Ans(a)
Sol. In the forging operation, fullering is done to Draw out the material.
S9. Ans(c)
Sol. Advantages of extrusions-
(1) Material saving
(2) process time saving
(3) Saving in tooling cost
(4) saving in administrative cost
But only a die change can change the product is the most effective advantage among these given options
So, saving in tooling cost is most appropriate option.
S10. Ans(c)
Sol. Lime water is the most suitable lubricant for drawing mild steel wires.
