PR5412: Foundry, Welding and Metallurgy Laboratory Syllabus for Production 4th Sem 2019 Regulation Anna University

Foundry, Welding and Metallurgy Laboratory detailed syllabus for Production Engineering (Production) for 2019 regulation curriculum has been taken from the Anna Universities official website and presented for the Production 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 Production Engineering 4th Sem scheme and its subjects, do visit Production 4th Sem 2019 regulation scheme. The detailed syllabus of foundry, welding and metallurgy laboratory is as follows.

Course Objective:

• To train the students in the area of non-ferrous metal casting with the simple shapes.
• To study the basic requirements of given moulding sand by standard tests.
• To train the students to make the simple joints by various welding techniques.
• To study the solidification of metals and alloys also find the various micro structure of given specimens.
• To train the students for various heat treatment processes.

List of Experiments:

Foundry

1. Green and Dry Strength of Moulding sand.
2. Permeability testing.
3. Determining the clay content.
4. Sieve analysis of dry silica sand.
5. Determining the moisture content.
6. Melting any non-ferrous metal and making simple castings – Demonstration.

Welding

1. Welding of basic joints using gas and arc welding.
2. Welding of pipes in different positions.
3. GTAW / GMAW of ferrous and non – ferrous metals.
4. Spot welding of plates.
5. Brazing practice – Dissimilar metals.
6. Welding of standard grill structures.

Metallurgy

1. Cooling curve- Pure metal and alloy (Pb-Sn).
2. Specimen preparation for macro – examination.
3. Specimen preparation for micro examination (steel/cast iron/non-ferrous alloys).
4. Quantitative metallography – Estimation of volume fraction, particle size, shape and distribution.
5. Heat treatments of Steel-Micro structural study: Annealing/ Normalising / Quench
6. Hardening/ Tempering.
7. Jominy End Quench Test.
