2. Drawing (manufacturing) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drawing_(manufacturing)

   Tube drawing is very similar to bar drawing, except the beginning stock is a tube. It is used to decrease the diameter, improve surface finish, and improve dimensional accuracy. A mandrel may or may not be used depending on the specific process used. A floating plug may also be inserted into the inside diameter of the tube to control the wall ...

3. Tube drawing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tube_drawing

   Tube drawing is a process to size a tube by shrinking a large diameter tube into a smaller one, by drawing the tube through a die. This process produces high-quality tubing with precise dimensions, good surface finish, and the added strength of cold working. [1] For this reason this process is established for many materials, mainly metalworking ...

4. Metal spinning - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metal_spinning

   Spinning tools can be made of hardened steel for use with aluminum, or from solid brass for spinning stainless steel or mild steel. Some metal spinning tools are allowed to spin on bearings during the forming process. This reduces friction and heating of the tool, extending tool life and improving surface finish. Rotating tools may also be ...

5. Piping and plumbing fitting - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piping_and_plumbing_fitting

   The material with which a pipe is manufactured is often the basis for choosing a pipe. Materials used for manufacturing pipes include: Carbon (CS) and galvanized steel; Impact-tested carbon steel (ITCS) Low-temperature carbon steel (LTCS) Stainless steel (SS) Malleable iron; Chrome-molybdenum (alloy) steel (generally used for high-temperature ...

6. Speeds and feeds - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speeds_and_feeds

   Strength of the workpiece (high feed rates will collapse thin wall tubing) Characteristics of the material being cut, chip flow depends on material type and feed rate. The ideal chip shape is small and breaks free early, carrying heat away from the tool and work. Threads per inch (TPI) for taps, die heads and threading tools. Cut Width.

7. Physical vapor deposition - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Physical_vapor_deposition

   By varying the composition and duration of the process, a range of colors can be produced by PVD on stainless steel. The resulting colored stainless steel product can appear as brass, bronze, and other metals or alloys. This PVD-colored stainless steel can be used as exterior cladding for buildings and structures, such as the Vessel sculpture ...
