As the name of this group of abrasive operations suggests, their objective is to achieve superior surface finish up to mirror-like finishing and very close dimensional precision. The finishing operations are assigned as the last operations in the single part production cycle usually after the conventional or abrasive machining operations, but also after net shape processes such as powder metallurgy, cold flashless forging, etc. The finishing processes discussed in this section include honing, lapping, superfinishing, polishing, and buffing. Honing is a finishing process performed by a honing tool, which contains a set of three to a dozen and more bonded abrasive sticks. The sticks are equally spaced about the periphery of the honing tool. They …show more content…
Bores can vary in diameter and form, from bigger piston bores in motor cylinders to rather small bores in fuel injection systems. Quality parameters for these bores are form and geometric accuracy as well as surface roughness and structure. All requirements can economically be met by using the honing process as the final finishing operation for readymade bores. Honing is an abrasive machining process using abrasive grains usually made of diamond or Cubic Boron Nitride (CBN) in metallic bonding. During the process three movement components, namely an axial movement along the bore axis, a rotational movement around the bore axis and the feeding movement of the honing stone, are combined. The feeding movement of the honing stone is induced by an axial movement of the feeding cone, which is translated into a radial movement of the honing stone at the interface between honing stone and work piece. The feeding movement is decisive for the results of the honing process. For a regulation of the process that enables high process stability and repeatability as well as good quality results from the first part it is important to know about the forces in the feeding system of the
A total of 90 patients (test [MEBO Scar ointment], n=40; control, n=50) were recruited in the study. All patients underwent elective surgery between February 01, 2013 and December 30, 2013.The majority of patients in the test group were female (n=30, 75%) with female to male ratio of 3:1; however, all participants in the control group were female. The mean age of the patients was 30 years (range: 10–60 years)(Table 1). There were no statistically significant differences between the test and control group with respect to type of surgery (Table 2)and type of incision (Table 3). Thyroidectomy was the most frequently performed surgery in the test group (30%), while breast mass excision biopsy was the most common in the control group. Revisional
Graston instrument-assisted soft tissue mobilization (GITSM) is a tool used by therapist and chiropractors to help break up the scar tissue and replace it with fibroblast allowing for faster recoveries (Black 2010). A series of heat, GISTM, then strength and flexibility training are required (Black 2010). Numerous studies have been conducted, by certified therapist qualified in GISTM, to examine the styles and recovery periods after an injury. After going through the treatment, patients are measured by their range of motion (ROM) to see if the treatments were effective or not (Black 2010). ROM can vary depending on the region of the body that is being treated, but the overall goal of GISTM is to allow a person to get back to their regular routines they had before their injury. A study conducted by Logan College of Chiropractic shows that plantar fasciitis (foot) can be treated by GISTM on the first day of treatment (Daniels and Morrell 2012). Another study by Duke University shows that GISTM can be effective for patients after surgery that had an injury in the Patellar tendon (knee) (Black 2010). After several treatments, GISTM can, also, be used to treat a compression fracture in the lumbar (back) (Papa 2012). Each study shows the method of GISTM, the patient’s recovery period along with the methods of recovery.
It is commonly said that “life’s too short”, but it feels even shorter when one is forced into the next stage of their life pre-maturely. Alejo Carpentier’s journey through time in Like the Night explores not just the cycle of time, but also the cycle of life. Readers are transported from Ancient Greece, to the Spanish conquest of the new world, to the European Empire, to the First World War, and finally back to Ancient Greece. Instead of focusing on battle strategy, the front lines, or shell-shock; Carpentier writes on loss of innocence. While writing on the night before leaving home and the innocence lost in the sudden transition from boyhood to manhood, Carpentier also toys with loss of sexual
There are many different types of sanders in our world that vary from random orbit, spindle, belt, disc, hand, vibrating, drum, detail, and so forth. A sander is a power tool that is used for smoothing a surface with sandpaper or other abrasive materials. Each woodworking sander serves a certain purpose so that you may be able to complete your task more efficiently. They vary from being a manual sander to being an electrically powered sander. Typically in the world of carpenters and woodworkers they will usually stick with power sanders just because they are more time consuming and there is less manual labor that is necessary.
This tool has a thin metal sheet or ribbon attached to the handle. The ribbon carves into the material.
Milling offers the advantages of being highly precise and having much smoother surface finish (surface roughness of easily around 1 µm ) compared to powder bed fusion additive manufacturing (layer thickness in the range of 20 µm and above; surface roughness of 15 µm and above ). Flat surfaces and sharp corners can be obtained with CNC milling. Similarly, features such as threads and holes are more accurately created through
At low cutting conditions attrition was found dominant wear mechanism of cemented carbide cutting tool.
Four brass wedges were tested. Two were cold rolled to a thickness of 5.0 mm and two were cold rolled to a thickness of 2.5 mm. One wedge of each thickness was then annealed for 1 hour at 350 °C. Because the wedges varied in thickness across the length, multiple cold work values were able to be recorded. Hardness and thickness measurements were taken before and after the cold rolling and after the annealing as shown in Figure 1. Generally, as cold work increased, hardness increased.
Pain and suffering is something that we all would like to never experience in life, but is something that is inevitable. “Why is there pain and suffering in the world?” is a question that haunts humanity. Mother Teresa once said that, “Suffering is a gift of God.” Nevertheless, we would all like to go without it. In the clinical setting, pain and suffering are two words that are used in conjunction. “The Wound Dresser,” by Walt Whitman and “The Nature of Suffering and Goals of Medicine,” by Eric J Cassel addresses the issue of pain and suffering in the individual, and how caregivers should care for those suffering.

In W. Somerset Maugham’s The Razor’s Edge, we read about a character named Larry Darrell, who acts and responds differently after World War I. Isabel Bradley, who is engaged to Larry, discovers that Larry has indeed changed since the war. She says that, “He gives me such an odd impression sometimes; he gives me the impression of a sleep-walker who’s suddenly wakened in a strange place and can’t think where he is. He was so normal before the war. One of the nice things about him was his enormous zest for life. He was so scatter-brained and gay, it was wonderful to be with him; he was so sweet and ridiculous. What can have happened to change him so much?” (49). From this statement we come to understand that Larry’s attitudes and behaviors have
When most people think of drill bits they think of drill bits they think of the simple tool that can be found in any house or machine shop. The drill bits are relatively simple in design and are typically used for drilling through wood and metals. Most people don’t realize that when companies drill in the earth for oil they also use drill bits. However, the drill bits used in this process are very complicated in nature, not to mention costly. These drill bitts cost on average between $30,000 and $50,000 dollars, but can cost as in the 150,000+ range. Due to the high cost of these bits, it is important for any supply manager working in this industry to have an understanding of how they work and their intended uses. To completely understand the engineering that goes into these bits would probably require someone to have a degree in mechanical or petroleum engineering. However, with some basic understanding of the different kinds of bits and the manufacturing process behind them, it is possible for a supply manager to properly identify and purchase the proper bit for the project he/she is working on.
High speed machining (HSM) enables an increase in efficiency, accuracy, productivity and quality of work-pieces as well as a reduction in costs and completion time compared to conventional machining. [1, 2]
Today many types of drill accessories and tools are used for domestic and commercial tasks. The use of cordless drill accessories prove effective for doing a hole in roofs or walls. In this regard, drill is an ideal item used in many types of applications.
