In this paper, an experiment is conducted to optimize the kerf width of wire electrical discharge machining (WEDM) on Aluminum hybrid composite with Zinc coated brass wire using Taguchi method. Aluminum metal matrix composites (MMCs) reinforced with silicon carbide particulate (SiCp) find several applications due to their improved mechanical properties for a wide variety of aerospace and automo...

The ease and convenience of a hot-wire cutter for the separation of wells from PVC radioimmunoassay trays has been demonstrated.' In constructing a similar apparatus, it was felt that a worthwhile simplification could be achieved by arranging to push the PVC tray past a fixed hot wire. The wire can simply be held under spring tension, and the springloaded telescopic arm previously employed' be ...

To eliminate hazardous hexavalent chromium from a brass wire-mill waste, hydrogen peroxide was examined In place of chromic acid for pickling, first in bench-scale tests and then in plant tests. Nthough the elimination of chromic acid requires more rigid control of the ~ wastewater treatment operation and increases the zinc content of the waste-treatment effluent, the economic benefit of substi...

This paper describes an optimum cutting parameters for Titanium Grade5 (Ti-6Al-4V) using Wire-cut Electrical Machining Process (WEDM). The response of Volume Material Removal Rate (MRR) and Surface Roughness (Ra) are considered for improving the machining efficiency. A brass wire of 0.25mm diameter was applied as tool electrode to cut the specimen. The Experimentation has been done by using Tag...

We describe a basic experiment for the undergraduate laboratory that demonstrates aspects of both the science and the art of precision electronic measurements. The essence of the experiment is to measure the resistance of a small length of brass wire to high accuracy using a simple voltage divider and a lock-in amplifier. By performing the measurement at different frequencies and different driv...

The local electrochemical properties of galvanic corrosion for three coupled metals in a desalination plant were investigated with three wire-beam electrodes as wire sensors: aluminum brass (HAl77-2), titanium (TA2), and 316L stainless steel (316L SS). These electrodes were used with artificial seawater at different temperatures. The potential and current-density distributions of the three-meta...

The lack of complete understanding of the substrate effects on carbon nanotubes (CNTs) growth poses a lot oftechnical challenges. Here, we report the direct growth of nanostructures such as the CNTs on stainless steel 304and brass substrates using thermal chemical vapor deposition (TCVD) process with C2H2 gas as carbon sourceand hydrogen as supporting gas mixed in Ar gas flow. We used an especi...

<span lang="IN">In the production process, quality checking is very important, one of which on wire. In process making brass-coated steel tire straps sometimes produce goods not in accordance with desired standard values. Checks that are carried out manually have low efficiency and quite high errors occur. So it necessary to check by measuring wavelength brass plated cord automatically. t...
