Discuss the following questions briefly


1. Casting has commonly been used as a mass production technique. For example, in sand
casting, highly accurate patterns and (when needed) mass produced cores are utilized for
the production of thousands of identical parts. Review several of the common casting
processes and discuss ways of using them profitably in high-variety production, for
example by utilizing rapid prototyping techniques in the manufacture of patterns and
cores.
2. Material removal techniques, as the name implies, are based on removing material from
a given blank for the fabrication of the final geometry of a part. Compare material
removal techniques to near– net shape production techniques, such as casting, powder
processing, and forming, in the context of product geometry, material properties, and
economics in mass production versus small-batch production environments.
3. If holes fabricated via drilling were considered unacceptable due to poor dimensional or
surface quality reasons, what would you recommend as a remedy? Explain.
4. How does chip formation affect surface quality? How can one control the chip formation
process?
5. A furniture company that makes upholstered chairs and sofas must cut large quantities of
fabrics. Many of these fabrics are strong and wear-resistant, which properties make them
difficult to cut. What non-traditional process/processes would you recommend to the
company for this application? Justify your answer by indicating the characteristics of the
process that make it attractive.
