1. Solution. (b) : Hot hardness is the properly of a tool that prevents plastic deformation
at its cutting edge during machining process.
2. Solution. (b) : In a horizontal borer, the tool rotates where as in a lathe, the object
rotates.
3. Solution. (d) : The chip thickness during slab milling process is directly proportion to
feed rate of work piece.:
4. Solution. (b) : Cutting speed = πDN = π × 20 × 1000 = 20000 π mm/min = 20 π
m/min
5. Solution. (d) : (1 given by CIL)
It is clear from the figure that at high speed, maximum heat is carried away by the
chip, then work piece and least is carried by tool. So the ratio 70: 10: 20 will be
correct.
6. Solution. (a) : Knurling: Knurling is a manufacturing process whereby a visually-
attractive diamond-shaped (crisscross) pattern is cut or rolled into metal. This pattern
allows human hands or fingers to get a better grip on the knurled object than would be
provided by the originally-smooth metal surface.
Boring: Boring always involves the enlarging of an existing hole, which may have
been made by a drill or may be the result of a core in a casting.
Reaming: Reaming removes a small amount of material from the surface of holes. It
is done for two purposes: to bring holes to a more exact size and to improve the finish
of an existing hole.
Threading: It is the process of making internal or external threads on the workpiece.
Out of above four processes except knurling all other involves the chips. So Knurling
is right option.

7. Solution. (a) : Cutting speed (also called surface speed) may be defined as the rate (or
speed) at the workpiece surface, irrespective of the machining operation used. Cutting
speed = r × ω = πDN mm/min Where D is in mm and N is in RPM. So cutting speed
is directly proportion to diameter of the workpiece.
8. Solution. (c) : Crater wear occur on the rake face. For crater wear temperature is the
main culprit and tool diffuse into the chip material and tool temperature is maximum
at some distance from the tool tip. So crater wear starts at some distance from tool tip.

Crater wear—
• Crater wear occur on the rake face.
• At very high speed crater wear predominates
• For crater wear, temperature is main culprit and
tool defuse into chip material and tool temperature is
maximum at some distance from the tool tip.
13. Solution. (c) : Trimming—Trimming is the process of removing the burrs or flash
from a forged component in drop forging.
Swaging—Swaging is a forging process in which the dimension of an item are altered
using dies into which the item is forced.
Perforating—A perforation is a small hole in thin material. There is usually more
than one perforation in organized fashion, where all of the holes collectively are
called a perforation. The process of creating perforations is called perforting.
14. Solution. (a) : Climb milling is generally the best way to machine parts today since it
reduces the load from the cutting edge, leaves a better surface finish and improves
tool life. During conventional milling, the cutter tends to dig into the work piece and
may cause the part to be cut out of tolerance.
15. Solution. (b) : The thickness of the chip is minimum at the beginning of the cut and
maximum at the end of the cut is case of up milling. Up milling also know as
conventional milling.
16. Solution. (b) : The slotting machine can be used to cut slots, splines keyways for both
internal and external job such as machining internal and external gears.
17. Solution. (a) : One of the disadvantages of a hydraulic shaper compared to the
mechanical shaper is stopping point of the cutting stroke can vary depending upon the
resistance offered to cutting.
18. Solution. (a) : mrr = d × f × b

40 × 10 = 10 × f × 200
f = 20 mm/min.
19. Solution. (c) : For thread cutting among the following operation, the slowest speed is
selected in lathe.

method for cutting parts. This is because of the generating nature of this particular

cutting process. Gear hobbing is not a form cutting process, such as gashing or milling
where the cutter is a conjugate form of the gear tooth. The hob generates a gear tooth
profile by cutting several facets of each gear tooth prolife through a synchronized
rotation and feed of the work piece and cutter.
21. Solution. (a) : 119 divisions can be indexed by using differential indexing.
22. Solution. (c) : In radial drilling machine, large and odd shaped workpieces are hold
by using strap clamps and T-bolts.

concentric with the machine spindle and to introduce a form into a wheel.
24. Solution. (b) : The gear is manufactured on generating principle in hobbing.
25. Solution. (c) : Gear shaving in the operation pertaining to gear finishng.

more stable, and have higher wear resistance than the other cutting tool materials.
Cermets are aluminium oxide based material containing titanium carbide, titanium
nitride and titanium carbo nitride. Cermets have higher hot hardness and higher
oxidation resistance over cemented carbides. Carbides, which are nonferrous alloys,
are also called, sintered (or cemented ) carbides because they are manufactured by
powder metallurgy techniques. These tool materials are much harder, are chemically
more stable, have better hot hardness, high stiffness, and lower friction, and operate at
higher cutting speeds than do HSS.

113. Solution: (c) The metal in machining operation is removed by shearing the metal
across a zone. To remove metal by machining the tool first penetrate the surface once
the tool has penetrated the surface, the chip formed should readily break. The ideal
method of breaking the chip is to provide a built in breaker. It is wrong to assume that
because a metal is soft it is easy to machine. In steel a completely spheroidized
structure is considered to be easiest to machine.
