1) COLD WORKING
Plastic deformation which is carried out in a temperature region and
over a time interval such that the strain hardening is not relieved is
called cold working.
HOT WORKING
Hot working refers to the process where metals are defromed above
their recrystallizaton tempereture and strain hardening does not
occur.Hot working performed at elevated tempreature.However is hot
working at room temperature because of its low melting temperature.

Reason for Hot Working:
At elevated temperatures, metals weaken and become more ductile.
Forging
Forging is manufacturing process where metal
is pressed, pounded or squeezed under great
pressure into high strength parts known as
forgings. The process is normally (but not
always) performed hot by preheating the metal
to a desired temperature before it is worked. It is
important to note that the forging process is
entirely different from the casting (or foundry)
process, as metal used to make forged parts is
never melted and poured (as in the casting
process).

Forged Products
In automotive applications, forged components
are commonly found at points of shock and
stress. Forged automobile components include
connecting rods, crankshafts, wheel spindles,
axle beams, pistons, gears, and steering arms.
Forgings are also used in helicopters, pistonengine planes, commercial jets, and supersonic
military aircraft. Many aircraft are "designed
around" forgings and contain more than 450
structural forgings, including hundreds of forged
engine parts.
"Forged" is the mark of quality in hand tools and
hardware. Pliers, hammers, sledgers, wrenches,
garden implements, and surgical tools are
almost always produced through forging.

Rolling
Aluminium is first passed through a hot rolling mill and then transferred to a cold rolling mill.
This thinner aluminium is then coiled and transported to the cold rolling mill for
further processing.

Rolling??
Rolling is a fabricating process in which the metal, plastic,
paper, glass, etc. is passed through a pair (or pairs) of rolls.
There are two types of rolling process, flat and profile rolling.
In flat rolling the final shape of the product is either classed
as sheet (typically thickness less than 3 mm, also called
"strip") or plate (typically thickness more than 3 mm).
In profile rolling, the final product may be a round rod or other
shaped bar such as a structural section (beam, channel, joist
etc). Rolling is also classified according to the temperature of
the metal rolled. If the temperature of the metal is above its
recrystallization temperature then the process is termed as
hot rolling, If the temperature of metal is below its
recrystallization temperature the process is termed as cold
rolling.

WHAT is DRAWING?
Drawing is an operation in which the cross-section of solid
rod, wire or tubing is reduced or changed in shape by pulling
it through a die.
The principle of this procedure consist of reducing the
thickness of a pointed ,tapered wire by drawing it through a
conical opening in a tool made of a hard material.The wire
will take shape of the hole.
DRAWING TOOLS
The most common drawplate have round holes and are used
to reduce the size of round wire.

Deep Drawing
Deep drawing and pressing involve a combination of bending and
stretching.The simplest example of this process involves the
fabrication of a cup from a circular sheet blank.
For deep drawing operations the quality of strip required should be
non-directional and of the correct combination of hardness and grain
size for the tooling .
Blanking
A material is pushed or drawn through a die of the desired crosssection .Any solid or hollow cross-section may be produced by
extrusion, which can create essentially semi-finished parts. The
metal can forcing through a die in the same direction or opposite
direction.

EXTRUSION PROCESS
Hot Extrusion
Hot extrusion is done at an elevated temperature to keep the material
from work hardening and to make it easier to push the material through
the die. Most hot extrusions are done on horizontal hydraulic presses
that range from 250 to 12,000 tons.
The biggest disadvantage of this process is its cost for machinery and
its upkeep.
Typical parts produced by extrusions are trim parts used in automotive
and construction applications, window frame members, railings,
aircraft structural parts.
