Metal and Powder Forming Laboratory detailed syllabus for Materials Science & Engineering (MSE) for 2021 regulation curriculum has been taken from the Anna University official website and presented for the MSE students. For course code, course name, number of credits for a course and other scheme related information, do visit full semester subjects post given below.

For Materials Science & Engineering 5th Sem scheme and its subjects, do visit MSE 5th Sem 2021 regulation scheme. The detailed syllabus of metal and powder forming laboratory is as follows.

Course Objectives:

The main learning objective of this course is to prepare students for:

1. Acquiring knowledge on basic metal forming processes by experimental study and analysis
2. Constructing formability diagrams
3. Reducing thickness by sheet metal rolling
4. Reducing the metal powders size and characterisation of metal powders
5. Producing green compacts and sintering the compacts.

List of Experiments:

1. Formability of sheet metal by Ericsson cupping test
2. Construction of Formability limit diagram
3. Diameter reduction in Wire drawing
4. Thickness reduction in Sheet metal rolling.
5. Study of Sheet metal forming using FEA analysis software
6. Powder size reduction by Ball Milling
7. Measurement of Flow rate, Apparent and Tap Density of Powders
8. Production of green compacts.
9. Density determination of sintered product.
10. Effect of Sintering temperature on the density of the sintered compact

Course Outcomes:

Upon completion the course, the students will be able to

1. Demonstrate the formability behaviour of the metal forming process. .
2. Use software tools for analysing the metal forming process.
3. Examine the formability of different materials
4. Characterize the powders in terms of tap density, apparent density, flow rate and particle size
5. Make a compact of desired size and shape and compare the properties of the sintered compact with that of the green compact
