Concept explainers
Select from among the common hand tools in the following list, and try to identify the type of steel that would be most commonly used in their production. Consider: lowâ€�, mediumâ€�, and highâ€�carbon contents; plainâ€�carbon or alloy; standard or stainless; etc. Coatings are often required for corrosion resistance. What type of coating would you recommend for your selected tool? How might your answers be different if the target market was “lowest cost” or “topâ€�ofâ€�the line?”
- Adjustable crescent wrench
- Wood chisel
- Phillips�head screwdriver
- Wire cutters
- Pliers
- Spark�plug socket
- ¼�in. drill bit (for drilling holes in wood)

Will upvote if all are solved!arrow_forwardHow are (yield strength and E-modules )affected when we increase the hardness of a metal?arrow_forwardQuestion: TOOL WEAR AND CHIP FORMATION DURING MACHINING USING NANO-HYBRID COOLANT FOR TITANIUM What is the best Problem Statement based on the tittle?arrow_forward
- Please I want answer for this question. Thanksarrow_forwardYou work for an off-shore wind turbine manufacturer and have been asked to review data from the support structure development team. The cost of the high strength steel currently used in the support structure has increased significantly in the last 12 months so the development team have manufactured some components to an identical design using a cheaper grade of structural steel. Company policy states that the critical tensile stress must be 30% more than the expected maximum in service stress of 420MPa. Given the information below, what is critical tensile stress of the cheaper grade of structural steel and would you recommend its use in the wind turbine support structure? Alternate Steel Analysis Report: • Detected maximum internal flaw size = 1.0 μm, ● Specific surface energy 1.3 J/m2, ● Youngs Modulus = 210GPa Select one or more: a.590 MPa b.Yes, would recommend c.417 MPa d.13.2 MPa e.No, would not recommend f.18.6 MPaarrow_forwardYou work for an off-shore wind turbine manufacturer and have been asked to review data from the support structure development team.
