  2. Fire brick - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fire_brick

    In the making of firebrick, fire clay is fired in the kiln until it is partly vitrified.For special purposes, the brick may also be glazed. There are two standard sizes of fire brick: 9 in × 4 + 1 ⁄ 2 in × 3 in (229 mm × 114 mm × 76 mm) and 9 in × 4 + 1 ⁄ 2 in × 2 + 1 ⁄ 2 in (229 mm × 114 mm × 64 mm). [2]

  5. Non-recurring engineering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-recurring_engineering

    Non-recurring engineering (NRE) cost refers to the one-time cost to research, design, develop and test a new product or product enhancement. When budgeting for a new product, NRE must be considered to analyze if a new product will be profitable. Even though a company will pay for NRE on a project only once, NRE costs can be prohibitively high ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Refractory

    Refractory bricks in a torpedo car used for hauling molten iron In materials science , a refractory (or refractory material ) is a material that is resistant to decomposition by heat or chemical attack and that retains its strength and rigidity at high temperatures . [ 1 ]

  7. Investment casting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Investment_casting

    The cavity inside the refractory mould is a slightly oversized but otherwise exact duplicate of the desired part. Due to the hardness of refractory materials used, investment casting can produce products with exceptional surface qualities, which can reduce the need for secondary machine processes. [3]

  8. Refractory metals - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Refractory_metals

    These opposing effects result in groups 5 through 7 exhibiting the most refractory properties. [8] Creep resistance is a key property of the refractory metals. In metals, the starting of creep correlates with the melting point of the material; the creep in aluminium alloys starts at 200 °C, while for refractory metals temperatures above 1500 ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Design-to-cost

    Design-to-Cost (DTC), as part of cost management techniques, describes a systematic approach to controlling the costs of product development and manufacturing.The basic idea is that costs are designed "into the product", even from the earliest concept decisions on and are difficult to remove later.
