GEORGIA INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY George W. Woodruff School of Mechanical Engineering ME 4210 MANUFACTURING PROCESSES AND ENGINEERING Spring 2011 Test #2 March 16 Be sure to list all assumptions. Write legibly. One, two-sided page of hand-written notes is allowed; it must be handed in with your worked solutions (put your name on your sheet of notes). Otherwise, the test is closed book and notes. This test is 50 minutes long. Use the data provided with the test for all calculations. Show your work and write your answers in the exam in the space after the questions. You may write on both sides of the paper.
Problem #1 (60 points) Consider the following sheet metal bending operation: a) Determine the power required for the following metal bending operation. (40 points) b) Determine the punch and die angles required. (20 points) yield stress (yield) stress at maximum elongation (UTS) elastic modulus (E) maximum elongation (UTS) metal thickness (t) punch velocity material width (b) final part angle required (part) die width (2l) coefficient of friction () punch radius (rp) 35 MPa 90 MPa 69 GPa 32% 2.25 mm 35 mm/s 400 mm 90 degrees 100 mm 0.18 1.5 times the minimum value
Problem #2 (40 points) You are shaping a piece of metal. Shaping is an orthogonal cutting operation. The initial width of the metal is 150 mm. The tool is 15 mm wide. The depth of cut is 3 mm. The tool can withstand a temperature of 1300 C. Room temperature is 20 C. a) Determine the maximum cutting speed. (20 points) b) Determine the cutting force. (20 points) The steel has the following properties: Melting temperature (Tm) = 1400C Density () = 6200 kg/m3 Specific heat (c) = 365 J/kg-C Thermal conductivity (k) = 42 W/m-C Specific cutting energy (u) = 4.8 W-s/mm3 0C = 273K
