  2. Vacuum metallurgy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vacuum_metallurgy

    Vacuum metallurgy is the field of materials technology that deals with making, shaping, or treating metals in a controlled atmosphere, at pressures significantly less than normal atmospheric pressure. [1]

  3. List of welding processes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_welding_processes

    This is a list of welding processes, separated into their respective categories.The associated N reference numbers (second column) are specified in ISO 4063 (in the European Union published as EN ISO 4063). [1]

  4. Vacuum engineering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vacuum_engineering

    Vacuum systems usually consist of gauges, vapor jet and pumps, vapor traps and valves along with other extensional piping. A vessel that is operating under vacuum system may be any of these types such as processing tank, steam simulator, particle accelerator, or any other type of space that has an enclosed chamber to maintain the system in less than atmospheric gas pressure.

  5. Vacuum arc remelting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vacuum_arc_remelting

    Vacuum arc remelting (VAR) is a secondary melting process for production of metal ingots with elevated chemical and mechanical homogeneity for highly demanding applications. [1] The VAR process has revolutionized the specialty traditional metallurgical techniques industry, and has made possible tightly controlled materials used in biomedical ...

  6. Metallurgy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metallurgy

    Metallurgy derives from the Ancient Greek μεταλλουργός, metallourgós, "worker in metal", from μέταλλον, métallon, "mine, metal" + ἔργον, érgon, "work" The word was originally an alchemist's term for the extraction of metals from minerals, the ending -urgy signifying a process, especially manufacturing: it was discussed in this sense in the 1797 Encyclopædia ...

  7. Bloomery - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bloomery

    A bloomery in operation. The bloom will eventually be drawn out of the bottom hole. A bloomery is a type of metallurgical furnace once used widely for smelting iron from its oxides.

  8. Porosity sealing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Porosity_sealing

    Porosity sealing is done through the process of vacuum impregnation. Vacuum impregnation is a preferred OEM process that seals porosity and leak paths in metal castings, sintered metal parts and electrical castings that form during the casting or molding process.

  9. Alpha case - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alpha_case

    In metallurgy, alpha case is the oxygen-enriched surface phase that occurs when titanium and its alloys are exposed to heated air or oxygen. Alpha case is hard and brittle, and tends to create a series of microcracks that will reduce the metal's performance and its fatigue properties.
