Manufacturing Industries - continued


Manufacturing Industries  Secondary industries include
• Industry consists of enterprises and manufacturing, construction, and electric
organizations that produce or supply power generation
goods and services
 Manufacturing includes several industries
 Industries can be classified as: whose products are not covered in this
1. Primary industries - those that cultivate and book; e.g., apparel, beverages,
exploit natural resources, e.g., farming, chemicals, and food processing
mining
2. Secondary industries - take the outputs of
 For our purposes, manufacturing means
production of hardware
primary industries and convert them into
consumer and capital goods - • Nuts and bolts, forgings, cars, airplanes, digital
manufacturing is the principal activity computers, plastic parts, and ceramic products
3. Tertiary industries - service sector

Manufacturing Processes
Methods of Manufacture
• Two basic types:
1. Processing operations - transform a work
material from one state of completion to a
more advanced state
• Operations that change the geometry, properties, or

appearance of the starting material

2. Assembly operations - join two or more


components to create a new entity

Figure 1.4 Classification of manufacturing processes Processing Operations


• Alters a material’s shape, physical
properties, or appearance in order to add
value
 Three categories of processing operations:
1. Shaping operations - alter the geometry of the
starting work material
2. Property-enhancing operations - improve physical
properties without changing shape
3. Surface processing operations - to clean, treat,
coat, or deposit material on exterior surface of the
work

Shaping Processes – Four Categories Solidification Processes - Casting


1. Solidification processes - starting material is
a heated liquid or semifluid • Starting material is heated sufficiently to
transform it into a liquid or highly plastic
2. Deformation processes - starting material is state
a ductile solid (commonly metal)
 Examples: metal casting, plastic molding
3. Particulate processing - starting material
consists of powders •
4. Material removal processes - starting
material is a ductile or brittle solid

Open Molds and Closed Molds

Figure 10.2 Two forms of mold: (a) open mold, simply a


container in the shape of the desired part; and (b) closed
mold, in which the mold geometry is more complex and

Figure 11.10 Steps in permanent mold casting: (2) cores (if used)
are inserted and mold is closed, (3) molten metal is poured into
the mold, where it solidifies.

Forming Processes: Deformation Forming Processes: Deformation

• Starting workpart is shaped by application of


forces that exceed the yield strength of the
material
• Bulk Deformation
 Examples: (a) forging, (b) extrusion • Sheet Metal Forming

Stamping Press Forming: Particulate Processing


• Starting materials are powders of metals or
ceramics
 Usually involves pressing and sintering, in
which powders are first compressed and
then heated to bond the individual particles
