Reduction of Area (RA): A Measure of Material Ductility
The Reduction of Area (RA) is a fundamental, quantitative measure of ductility obtained from a tensile test on a material specimen. It expresses the extent to which a material can plastically deform (i.e., stretch) in a localized region before it fractures. 1. Definition Reduction of Area is defined as the percentage decrease in the cross-sectional area of a tensile […]
Face Milling
Face milling is a beloved process in manufacturing industries as it is actually used to smooth the uneven surfaces. Here actually, the cutter moves in an axis perpendicular to the workpiece ( stationery or slowly moving). You can also control the depth & feed rate of this cutter. As a result, when the cutter spins, […]
