5.Define thermos compression bonding.
Thermocompression bonding describes a wafer bonding technique and is also referred to as diffusion bonding, pressure joining, thermocompression welding or solid-state welding. Two metals, e.g. gold (Au)-gold (Au), are brought into atomic contact applying force and heat simultaneously. The diffusion requires atomic contact between the surfaces due to the atomic motion. The atoms migrate from one crystal lattice to the other one based on crystal lattice vibration. This atomic interaction sticks the interface together. Metals with high diffusion rate can be make with like Cu,Gold,Aluminium
6.What is DCLASS system?
7.What is manufacturability?
Design for manufacturability (also sometimes known as design for manufacturing or DFM) is the general engineering practice of designing products in such a way that they are easy to manufacture. The concept exists in almost all engineering disciplines, but the implementation differs widely depending on the manufacturing technology. DFM describes the process of designing or engineering a product in order to facilitate the manufacturing process in order to reduce its manufacturing costs. DFM will allow potential problems to be fixed in the design phase which is the least expensive place to address them. Other factors may affect the manufacturability such as the type of raw material, the form of the raw material, dimensional tolerances, and secondary processing such as finishing.
DCLASS System: it is a decision-making and classification system.
It is a tree-structured system that generates codes for components, material, processes, machines, and tools.Each brach of the system represents a condition in which a code is formed at the junction of each branch.The complete code is obtained by taking multiple passes in the decision tree.

11 Chill and chaplets
A chill is an object used to promote solidification in a specific portion of a metal casting mold. Normally the metal in the mold cools at a certain rate relative to thickness of the casting. When the geometry of the molding cavity prevents directional solidification from occurring naturally, a chill can be strategically placed to help promote it.
There are many cases in moulding in which a core is not adequately supported by its bearings in the sand of the mould, particularly if it has but one bearing or is not a straight core.
It is the practice in these cases to support the core by pieces of metal called chaplets, placed in the mould space. When metal is poured into the mould around the chaplets, they soften and become a part of the casting.
12. Models and prototype
Prototype is similar to a final structure, where the dimensions are scaled down so that very large machinery can be tested directly, with very low investments. But model is in exact dimensions, where the testing can be done but the cost is very high. Prototype is the initial working model of the final working machine.
Model-
1. Not necessarily functional (don't need to work).
2. Can be to any scale (usually smaller but can also be of the original size or bigger).
3. Used for Display or/and [Visual] Demonstration of product.
4. May consist of only the exterior of the object/product it replicates.
5.Relatively cheap to manufacture.
Prototype-
1. Is fully functional, but not fault-proof.
2. Is an actual version of the intended product.
3. Used for performance evaluation and further improvement of product.
4. Contains complete interior and exterior.
5. Is relatively expensive to produce.

15. Difference between oxidizing and neutral gas welding flames.
There are three basic flame types: neutral (balanced), excess acetylene (carburizing), and excess oxygen (oxidizing) . A neutral flame is named neutral since in most cases will have no chemical effect on the metal being welded. A carburizing flame will produce iron carbide, causing a chemical change in steel and iron. For this reason a carburizing flame is not used on metals that absorb carbon. An oxidizing flame is hotter than a neutral flame and is often used on copper and zinc.

17. Open and closed die forging
Open die forging process is also known as free forging. The piece of metal is deformed between multiple dies that do not enclose the metal entirely. The dies hammer and stamp the metal through a series of movements to alter its dimensions until the desired shape is achieved.
Closed die forging process is also referred to as impression forging. It utilizes pressure to compress the metal piece to fill an enclosed die impression. A medium frequency induction heating furnace is used to heat the metal to get the desired shapes..
18.Center-less grinding
Centerless grinding is a machining process that uses abrasive cutting to remove material from a workpiece.Centerless grinding differs from centered grinding operations in that no spindle or fixture is used to locate and secure the workpiece.The workpiece is secured between two rotary grinding wheels, and the speed of their rotation relative to each other determines the rate at which material is removed from the workpiece.Centerless grinding is typically used in preference to other grinding processes for operations where many parts must be processed in a short time.

19. Three high and four high rolling mills
Three High
It consists of a roll stand with three parallel rolls one above the other. Adjacent rolls rotates in opposite direction. So that the material may be passed between the top and the middle roll in one direction and the bottom and middle rolls in opposite one.
In three high rolling mills the work piece is rolled on both the forward and return passes. First of all the work piece passes through the bottom and middle rolls and the returning between the middle and the top rolls.
So that thickness is reduced at each pass. Mechanically operated lifted tables are used which move vertically or either side of the stand. So that the work piece fed automatically into the roll gap.
Since the rolls run in one direction only a much less powerful motor and transmission system is required. The rolls of a three high rolling mills may be either plain or grooved to produce plate or sections respectively.
Four high rolling mill:
It has a roll stand with four parallel rolls one above the other. The top and the bottom rolls rotate in opposite direction as do the two middle rolls. The two middle are smaller in size than the top and bottom rolls which are called backup rolls for providing the necessary rigidity to the smaller rolls.
A four high rolling mill is used for the hot rolling of armor and other plates as well as cold rolling of plates, sheets and strips.

Gates
These are the channels or runners that connect the sprue to the pattern or mold cavity. They can by dug by hand after the mold is opened to remove the pattern or they can be part of the pattern, as with a match plate. If dug by hand, care must be used to smooth them and remove any loose sand that may wash into the mold.
Risers
A riser may look like a sprue, but it has a different function. Instead of metal being poured in, it rises from the mold cavity as the sprue is filled. It tells you when to stop pouring as well as provides molten metal to thick parts of the mold to prevent shrink cavities as it cools.
27.Database management system
A database management system (DBMS) is system software for creating and managing databases. The DBMS provides users and programmers with a systematic way to create, retrieve, update and manage data.
28.Electrochemical machining
Electrochemical machining (ECM) is a method of removing metal by an electrochemical process. It is normally used for mass production and is used for working extremely hard materials or materials that are difficult to machine using conventional methods.[1] Its use is limited to electrically conductive materials. ECM can cut small or odd-shaped angles, intricate contours or cavities in hard and exotic metals, such as titanium aluminides, Inconel, Waspaloy, and high nickel, cobalt, and rhenium alloys.[2] Both external and internal geometries can be machined.
29.Impact extrusion
Impact extrusion is a discrete manufacturing process, in which a metal part is extruded through the impact of a die with the work stock. The part is formed at a high speed and over a relatively short stroke. In standard metal extrusions, the force to extrude the work is commonly delivered by way of a hydraulic press. In impact extrusions, mechanical presses are most often employed. The force used to form standard extrusions is usually delivered over a horizontal vector, producing a long continuous product. Force used to form impact extrusions is usually delivered over a vertical vector, producing a single part with each impact of the punch. Impact extrusion is most often performed cold. Occasionally with some metals and thicker walled structures, the work is heated before impact forming it. This process is best suited for softer metals, aluminum is a great material for forming by impacting.

33.Grinding wheel specification
Grinding wheel consists of hard abrasive grains called grits, which perform the
cutting or material removal, held in the weak bonding matrix. A grinding wheel
commonly identified by the type of the abrasive material used. The conventional
wheels include aluminium oxide and silicon carbide wheels while diamond and cBN
(cubic boron nitride) wheels fall in the category of superabrasive wheel.
A grinding wheel requires two types of specification
(a) Geometrical specification
(b) Compositional specification
(a) Geometrical specification
This is decided by the type of grinding machine and the grinding operation to be
performed in the workpiece. This specification mainly includes wheel diameter, width
and depth of rim and the bore diameter.
(b) Compositional specification
Specification of a grinding wheel ordinarily means compositional specification.
Conventional abrasive grinding wheels are specified encompassing the following
parameters.
1) the type of grit material
2) the grit size
3) the bond strength of the wheel, commonly known as wheel hardness
4) the structure of the wheel denoting the porosity i.e. the amount of inter grit
5) the type of bond material
6) other than these parameters, the wheel manufacturer may add their own identification code prefixing or suffixing (or both) the standard code.
Example
The standard marking system for conventional abrasive wheel can be as follows:
51 A 60 K 5 V 05, where
• The number ‘51’ is manufacturer’s identification number indicating exact kind
of abrasive used.
• The letter ‘A’ denotes that the type of abrasive is aluminium oxide. In case of
silicon carbide the letter ‘C’ is used.
• The number ‘60’ specifies the average grit size in inch mesh. For a very large
size grit this number may be as small as 6 where as for a very fine grit the
designated number may be as high as 600.
• The letter ‘K’ denotes the hardness of the wheel, which means the amount of
force required to pull out a single bonded abrasive grit by bond fracture. The
letter symbol can range between ‘A’ and ‘Z’, ‘A’ denoting the softest grade and
‘Z’ denoting the hardest one.
• The number ‘5’ denotes the structure or porosity of the wheel. This number
can assume any value between 1 to 20, ‘1’ indicating high porosity and ‘20’
indicating low porosity.
• The letter code ‘V’ means that the bond material used is vitrified. The codes
for other bond materials used in conventional abrasive wheels are B
(resinoid), BF (resinoid reinforced), E(shellac), O(oxychloride), R(rubber), RF
(rubber reinforced), S(silicate)

Split or two piece pattern is most widely used type of pattern for intricate castings. It is split along the parting surface, the position of which is determined by the shape of the casting. One half of the pattern is molded in drag and the other half in cope. The two halves of the pattern must be aligned properly by making use of the dowel pins, which are fitted, to the cope half of the pattern. These dowel pins match with the precisely made holes in the drag half of the pattern

40. Reverse engineering
Reverse engineering, also called back engineering, is the process by which a man-made object is deconstructed to reveal its designs, architecture, or to extract knowledge from the object; similar to scientific research, the only difference being that scientific research is about a natural phenomenon.
==============================================================

It is a steel rod having sharp edge at one end and a ring on another side. It is used for rapping and drawing pattern from the mould. It is a pointed steel rod, The Drar spike is threaded on the end to engage metal patterns
42. Blow Holes
This is one of casting defect. Blow holes are fairly large, well rounded cavity produced by the gases which displace the molten metal at the cope surface of a casting. Blow's usually occur on a convex casting surface and can be avoided by having a proper venting and an adequate permeability. A controlled content of moister and volatile constituents in the sand-mix also helps in avoiding the blow holes
43. Gating System
Is the network on channels used to deliver the molten metal to the mould cavity . it is a passage thorugh which molten metal flows from the runner to the mould cavity.
A gating system mainly consist of a
1. pouring basin
2. Sprue
3. runner
4. Ingate
Funtion of gateing system.
1. It should introduce molten metals into mold cavity with minimum turbulance.
2. It must prevent slag,dross or inclusions in ladle entering to mould cavity.
3. it must avoid aspiration of air and mould gases in metal stream.
4. it must not cause mould or core erosion.
5. It should create favorable temperature gradients in the casting to help directional solidification.
6. It should control rate of filling of mould cavity avoiding cold shuts due to slow rise as well as erosion due to fast rise.
44. Direct current reverse polarity
In arc welding, base metals are connected with one terminal and the electrode is connected with other terminal. Under presence of sufficient potential difference, continuous flow of electrons between them through a small gap constitutes the arc (prime source of heat in arc welding). Based on the connections, DC power can provide two polarities, as provided below:.
- Direct Current Reverse Polarity (DCRP) or Direct Current Electrode Positive (DCEP)—When base metals are connected with the negative terminal of the power source and electrode is connected with the positive terminal. used for welding thin plates
- Direct Current Straight Polarity (DCSP) or Direct Current Electrode Negative (DCEN)—When electrode is connected with the negative terminal of the power source and base metals are connected with the positive terminal.
45. Magnetic arc blow
Magnetic arc blow or "arc wander" is the deflection of welding filler material within an electric arc deposit by a build up of magnetic force surrounding the weld pool. Magnatic arc blow can occur becouse of workpiece connection,joint design.
46. Design for assembly
Design for assembly (DFA) is a process by which products are designed with ease of assembly in mind. If a product contains fewer parts it will take less time to assemble, thereby reducing assembly costs. In addition, if the parts are provided with features which make it easier to grasp, move, orient and insert them, this will also reduce assembly time and assembly costs. The reduction of the number of parts in an assembly has the added benefit of generally reducing the total cost of parts in the assembly. This is usually where the major cost benefits of the application of design for assembly occur.
47. Modular Design
Modular design, or "modularity in design", is a design approach that subdivides a system into smaller parts called modules or skids, that can be independently created and then used in different systems. A modular system can be characterized by functional partitioning into discrete scalable, reusable modules; rigorous use of well-defined modular interfaces; and making use of industry standards for interfaces.
48. Automated storage and retrieval system (AS/RS)
49. Database management systems
A database management system (DBMS) is system software for creating and managing databases. The DBMS provides users and programmers with a systematic way to create, retrieve, update and manage data.
50. Up-milling
Up milling also called conventional milling, is the processes of removing metal by a cutter which is rotated against the direction of travel of the workpiece. The thickness of the chip in upmilling is minimum at the beginning of the cut and it reaches to the maximum when the cut terminates. As the chip thickness per tooth is not uniform, the cutting in up milling increases from zero to the maximum value per tooth movement of the cutter
=====================================================================
51. Reverse engineering.
Reverse engineering, also called back engineering, is the process by which a man-made object is deconstructed to reveal its designs, architecture, or to extract knowledge from the object; similar to scientific research, the only difference being that scientific research is about a natural phenomenon.
52. Quality Function Deployment.
Quality function deployment (QFD) is a method developed in Japan beginning in 1966 to help transform the voice of the customer into engineering characteristics for a product. Yoji Akao, the original developer, described QFD as a "method to transform qualitative user demands into quantitative parameters, to deploy the functions forming quality, and to deploy methods for achieving the design quality into subsystems and component parts, and ultimately to specific elements of the manufacturing process." The author combined his work in quality assurance and quality control points with function deployment used in value engineering.
53. Directional Solidification
Directional solidification (DS) is types of solidification within castings. Directional solidification is solidification that occurs from farthest end of the casting and works its way towards the sprue. Another way to describe directional solidification is that the casting should -- "cool and solidify progressively from thin sections to heavy sections with constant metal feed into the heavy sections."
54. Hot tears
a fracture in a metal casting that occurs during solidification as a result of hindered contraction.this also known as hot cracking. This happens because the metal is weak when it is hot and the residual stresses in the material can cause the casting to fail as it cools. Proper mold design prevents this type of defect
55. Reliability

58. Face plate.
A Face plate is the basic work holding accessory for a wood or metal turning lathe. It is a circular metal( usually cast iron) plate which fixes to the end of the lathe spindle. The workpiece is then clamped to the faceplate. typically using t nuts in slots in the faceplate, or less commonly threaded holes in the faceplate itself
59 AGV
Automated Guided Vehicles ( AGVs) is a material handling system that uses independently operated, self propelled vehicles,, guided along defined path ways. The vehicles are powered by board batteries that allow many hours operation ( 8-11 hours) between recharging. The distinguishing feature of a AVGs compared to rail guided system and most conveyor system, is that the path way are un-obstrusive . AGVS is appropriate where different material are moved from various load points to various unload points. it is used in batch production and mixed production
Types of AGVS

63. Difference between quality and reliability
- Reliability deals with behavior of failure rate over a long period of operation while quality control delas with percent of defectives based on performance specification ar a certain point od time
- Reliability delas with all periods of existance of a product with prime emphais at the design stage, while quality conatrol deals with primarly on the manufacturing stage
- Reliability and quality control use different statistical tools to evaluate
64. Simulation
A simulation of a system is the operation of a model of the system. The model can be reconfigured and experimented with; usually, this is impossible, too expensive or impractical to do in the system it represents.The operation of the model can be studied, and hence,properties concerning the behavior of the actual system or its subsystem can be inferred. In its broadest sense,simulation is a tool to evaluate the performance of a system, existing or proposed, under different configurations of interest and over long periods of real time.
65. Core print
Castings are often required to have holes, recesses, etc. of various sizes and shapes. These impressions can be obtained by using cores. So where coring is required, provision should be made to support the core inside the mold cavity. Core prints are used to serve this purpose. The core print is an added projection on the pattern and it forms a seat in the mold on which the sand core rests during pouring of the mold. The core print must be of adequate size and shape so that it can support the weight of the core during the casting operation. Depending upon the requirement a core can be placed horizontal, vertical and can be hanged inside the mold cavity.
66. Robust design
Robust product design is a concept from the teachings of Dr. Genichi Taguchi, a Japanese quality guru. It is defined as reducing variation in a product without eliminating the causes of the variation. robust Design consider the performance of product once it longed in the market
A system ( product or process) is robust if it performs properly in a wide range of conditions.
In the design of a new product, any design activity can be called robust, if it leads the product.
To have longer life ( higher reliability)
To be more consistent with use
to be more consistent from product to product
to perfomr consistently as temperture and other condition change
67. Master pattern
Master pattern is the name given to a pattern having a double contraction or shrinkage allowance. The castings made from the master pattern are used by the patternmaker in making duplicate patterns that will have only a single contraction or shrinkage allowance for the particular metal required of the final casting. An allowance is made not only for the shrinkage of the metal pattern, but also, a second allowance is added for the shrinkage of the casting produced from the metal pattern. For example, a master pattern constructed for an aluminum pattern to be used in producing bronze castings has the shrinkage allowance for aluminum (5/32" per foot) plus the shrinkage allowance for bronze (3/16" per foot) or a total shrinkage allowance of 11/32" per foot. If the final casting is to be machine finished, further allowances must be made for finishing the metal pattern and final casting. The actual metal pattern is made in the foundry, the same as any other casting of similar complexity would be made.
The different types of material that can be used in the construction of master patterns are numerous. These types include wood, plaster, aluminum, brass, bronze, plexiglass, ren-shape, and more. As comparatively few castings are made from a master pattern, the cost of the materials is held to a minimum so that the pattern can be made as economically as possible. Therefore, for the general purposes of lower cost and of speed in the manufacture of a master pattern, poplar is the most logical material to use.
68. Chaplet
It is the practice in these cases to support the core by pieces of metal called chaplets, placed in the mould space. When metal is poured into the mould around the chaplets, they soften and become a part of the casting.
69. Functions of dielectric in EDM
EDM dielectric fluid serves two main purposes. First, it acts as a semiconductor between the electrode and workpiece to facilitate a stable and controlled spark gap ionization condition. Second, it also acts as a flushing agent to wash and remove the eroded debris from the spark gap area.
70. Chip breakers
The function of a chip breaker is to improve chip control and to reduce cutting resistance. A better balance between the two will increase the machining performance.If chips can be broken into suitable lengths by the chip breaker, they will not wrap around the workpiece, vibration will decrease and tools will not be so easily damaged. Chip breakers also affect cutting resistance. Reduced cutting resistance can avoid chipping and fracturing of the cutting edge caused by vibration. Additionally, lower cutting resistance can decrease the load and heat, and can delay the development of tool wear.
