Features: This book is designed for students in mechanical-related cold and hot processing trades in vocational and technical schools. The content is divided into four parts. Part I covers the basics of metallurgy, introducing the internal structure of metals, theories of crystallization and plastic deformation, as well as the iron-carbon alloy phase diagram. Part II discusses metal materials and their corrosion and protection, providing general knowledge of common metal materials and information on metal material corrosion and protection. Part III outlines hot processing techniques, briefly describing the methods and process characteristics of casting, pressure processing, welding, and heat treatment. Part IV introduces the common equipment and process procedures for machining processes such as turning, planing, drilling, milling, grinding, gear processing, and benchwork. This book is also accompanied by a set of exercises. After studying this book, readers will gain a general understanding of metal materials and their processing processes, preparing them with a relatively comprehensive foundation in technical knowledge for specialized courses.
