This document provides an introduction to manufacturing, including definitions and key concepts. It discusses what manufacturing is, how it differs from production, and the main materials used - metals, ceramics, polymers, and composites. It also outlines some important mechanical properties of engineering materials like strength, modulus of elasticity, and hardness.

Introduction to Manufacuring MANUFACTURING TECHNOLOGY What Is Manufacturing
Derived from Latin words:
Manus (Hand); Factus (Make) Means: Made by hand Manufacturing- Definition
Technological: Application of physical and chemical
processes to alter the geometry, properties and/or appearance of a given starting material to make parts or product. Economic: Transformation of materials into items of greater value by means of one or more processing and/or assembly operations. Shape Raw Change Physical/Che Final Materi mical Produ al Processes Value ct Addition Manufacturing Vs Production The terms manufacturing and production are often interchangeably used Production has a broader meaning than manufacturing Term Production is used to indicate the output of continuous processes: oil production, cement production, chemical production. Term manufacturing is not used normally. In case of making discrete (separate) components as automobile/ aero-plane parts, usually the term Manufacturing is used. However, production is also acceptable in this case. Involvement of hand is more in manufacturing than in production Materials in Manufacturing
1. Metal: Term metal is derived from Greek word mtallon,
which means an open excavation or pit from which stone is obtained by digging, cutting, or blasting. It is an element or compound or alloy that is a good conductor of both electricity and heat. Metals are usually shiny, malleable and ductile. Types: Ferrous (iron based); Non-ferrous
2. Ceramic: A compound containing metallic & non-metallic
(Oxygen, Nitrogen, Carbon) elements Types: Crystalline ceramics ; Glasses Materials in Manufacturing- Contd 3. Polymer: Compound formed of repeating structural units called mers whose atoms share electrons to form very large molecules. - Polymers consist of C plus one or more other elements (H, O, Cl) Types: Thermoplastic (Polythene, Nylon); Thermosetting (Resins, Epoxies); Elastomer (rubber, silicone). 4. Composites: Mixtures of other three types - A material consisting of two or more phases that are processed separately and then bonded together to achieve properties superior to those of its constituents. - The usual structure of a composite consists of particles or fibers of one phase (homogeneous mass of material that has distinct properties) mixed with other, called matrix. Mechanical Properties of Engineering Materials
The properties of a material which determine its
behavior when it is subjected to mechanical stresses Include strength, modulus of elasticity, hardness, toughness, ductility, etc Objective in Design Phase -> Withstand the stresses without significant changes in geometry Objective in Manufacturing Phase -> Apply the stresses that exceed the yield strength so as to change the shape of the part
