Tag Archives | Fabrication Characteristics of Ferrous Metals

The ability of a metal to be formed, cast, welded, or machined is called its fabricating characteristic. Machinability refers to the ease with which a metal may be machined, i.e., the forces acting on the cutting tool are low, chips are easily broken up, good finish produced, longer tool life between two sharpening. The machinability of metals is improved by [...]
