"A reference book for the manufacturing and mechanical engineer, designer, drafter, metalworker, toolmaker, machinist, hobyist, educator, and student."

This edition of the "Machinery's Reference Series" deals with iron and steel, exploring how they are smelted, refined, and used in various mechanical processes of the iron and steel industry. It also contains chapters on the physical and chemical characteristics of these metals, and which tools they are best used to make based on this. Erik Oberg's "Iron and Steel" is perfect for novices or apprentices, and would make a handy reference guide for more experienced metalworkers. Contents include: "Principles of Iron and Steel Manufacture", "Steel Castings", "Open-hearth Furnaces", "Tests on Steel Castings", "Steel Hardened Metals", "Development and Use of High-speed Steel", "Hardening Steel, by E. R. Markham", "Case-Hardening", "The Brinell Method of Testing the Hardness of Metals", "Uses of Steel Castings", "Reliability of Steel Castings", "Manganese Steel", "Nickel Steel", "Tungsten Steel", "Molybdenum", etc. This book contains simple explanations and step-by-step instructions for any processes dealt with, making it ideal for novices or apprentices, as well as a handy reference guide for more experienced metalworkers using steel or iron. Many vintage books such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially-commissioned new introduction on metalwork.

Together With The Chapters On The Methods Of Cutting The Teeth In These Types Of Gears.

A Treatise On The Use Of Formulas And The Practical Application Of Trigonometry And Logarithms In The Solution Of Shop Problems Involving Right-Angled And Oblique-Angled Triangles.

Amply illustrated and deeply detailed, this classic guide details the creation of grades of steel via heat treatments. It offers fascinating insight into metal manufacturing processes.Since this guidebook was published in 1914, it carries a certain historic value; at the time, the United States economy was undergoing industrialization. Steel was in high demand, and the technology behind its manufacture was improved upon greatly. The metal's importance could not be understated; the expanding rail networks, new multistory constructions, plus tools and factory machines all required huge quantities of quality metal. As we learn, steel is not a simple product: various grades must be achieved via subtle variations in the heat and techniques applied during its manufacture.To articulate his points, the author appends over ninety charts and diagrams of equipment. Together these show how the furnaces work, and how the hardness of the metal is varied to meet strict specifications. Certain intense processes receive their own chapter, such as steel for machine tools and the use of the electric furnace, plus alloys and the testing of the finished products. For its breadth of detail and superb understanding, Erik Oberg's work remains readable over a century since its original publication.
