  2. Machinability - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Machinability

    Machinability is the ease with which a metal can be cut permitting the removal of the material with a satisfactory finish at low cost. [1] Materials with good machinability (free machining materials) require little power to cut, can be cut quickly, easily obtain a good finish, and do not cause significant wear on the tooling.

  3. Rhomboid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rhomboid

    Traditionally, in two-dimensional geometry, a rhomboid is a parallelogram in which adjacent sides are of unequal lengths and angles are non-right angled.. The terms "rhomboid" and "parallelogram" are often erroneously conflated with each other (i.e, when most people refer to a "parallelogram" they almost always mean a rhomboid, a specific subtype of parallelogram); however, while all rhomboids ...

  4. Mill scale - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mill_scale

    Mill scale is a complex oxide that contains around 70% iron with traces of nonferrous metals and alkaline compounds. Reduced iron powder may be obtained by conversion of mill scale into a single highest oxide i.e. hematite (Fe 2 O 3) followed by reduction with hydrogen.

  5. Cutting tool material - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cutting_tool_material

    The following properties are required for cutting tool materials: [1] hardness, hot hardness and pressure resistance; bending strength and toughness; inner bonding strength; wear resistance. oxidation resistance; small propensity for diffusion and adhesion; abrasion resistance; edge strength; There is no material that shows all of these ...

  6. Rhombus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rhombus

    Using congruent triangles, one can prove that the rhombus is symmetric across each of these diagonals. It follows that any rhombus has the following properties: Opposite angles of a rhombus have equal measure. The two diagonals of a rhombus are perpendicular; that is, a rhombus is an orthodiagonal quadrilateral. Its diagonals bisect opposite ...

  7. High-speed steel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-speed_steel

    High-speed steel (HSS or HS) is a subset of tool steels, commonly used as cutting tool material. It is superior to high-carbon steel tools in that it can withstand higher temperatures without losing its temper (hardness). This property allows HSS to cut faster than high carbon steel, hence the name high-speed steel.

  8. Rhombohedron - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rhombohedron

    In geometry, a rhombohedron (also called a rhombic hexahedron [1] [2] or, inaccurately, a rhomboid [a]) is a special case of a parallelepiped in which all six faces are congruent rhombi. [3] It can be used to define the rhombohedral lattice system , a honeycomb with rhombohedral cells.

  9. Shear strength - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shear_strength

    When a paper is cut with scissors, the paper fails in shear. In structural and mechanical engineering, the shear strength of a component is important for designing the dimensions and materials to be used for the manufacture or construction of the component (e.g. beams, plates, or bolts).
