Explanation:

Strain gauge type dynamometers

  • These are considered superior to mechanical dynamometers and are most widely used.
  • A typical cantilever type strain gauge turning dynamometer is shown in fig.
  • The device works in conjunction with a wheat stone flow bridge circuit.
  • The forces being measured are Ft and Fa. It is well known that the electric resistance of a wire changes if it is stretched.
  • Different pairs of strain gauges are cemented on the four flat surfaces (section at AA').
  • During the experimentation, different pairs of strain gauges are subjected to tension or compression depending on the force applied and the surface on which they are mounted.
  • It will be seen that under the effect of cutting force (Ft), strain gauges T1 and T2 are subjected to tension but the bottom strain gauges and C1 and C2 will be subjected to compression.
  • Likewise, force Fa puts strain gauges T3 and T4 under tension and C3 and C4 under compression.
  • The arrangement of one set of strain gauges (T1, T2, C1, C2) in wheat stone bridge circuit is shown in Fig. 
  • The other set comprising gauges T3, T4, C3, C4 are arranged in another bride circuit. Strain gauges subjected to tension show an increase in their resistance (due to increase in length) and those subjected to compression show decrease in their resistance (due to decrease in length).
  • Changes in the resistance are measured by wheatstone bridge.
  • The strains and stresses corresponding to the changes in length (and so the resistance) in the strain gauges can be found using standard formulae and so the corresponding forces responsible for causing these changes.

Therefore, the following forces are measured directly by strain gauges or force dynamometers during metal cutting.

  1. The horizontal cutting force exerted by the tool on the workpiece
  2. The vertical force which helps in holding the tool in position

The question given below consists of a statement, followed by three arguments numbered I, II and III. You have to decide which of the arguments is/are ‘strong’ arguments and which is/are ‘weak’ arguments and accordingly choose your answer from the alternatives given below each question. Statement: The imposition of Governor’s rule in Jammu and Kashmir will not affect operations in the state, according to Army Chief General, even as security forces are looking at higher intensity of operations against terrorists, to force them to ‘hibernate’. These operations will be based on greater level of intelligence from the J&K Police, as compared to what was being generated during the suspension of operations for the holy month of Ramzan. A challenge, however, for the security forces still remains the recruitment of local terrorists. Why? Arguments: I. Meanwhile, data shared by security forces reveal that there are about 210 terrorists currently operating in Kashmir, mainly in the South. Out of this, 65 per cent are locals and the remaining are foreign terrorists.  II. In South Kashmir itself, the maximum number of terrorists belong to the HizbulMujahideen, while some are from the Lashkar-e-Toiba and Jaish-e-Mohammed. III. When a local terrorist is killed during an operation, at his funeral more locals are willing to join terrorism. It is a mob mentality.
Consider the following statements: 1. HSS tools wear very rapidly, whereas in cemented carbide tools, even though hardness is retained, crater wear can occur due to solid-state diffusion. 2. Cutting tools made of Super-HSS, also known as cobalt-based HSS, are made by adding 2% to 15% of cobalt which increases the cutting efficiency at heavier cuts by increasing the hot hardness and wear resistance. 3. Tools failure due to excessive stress can be minimized by providing small or negative rake angles on brittle tool materials, protecting tool tip by providing large side-cutting edge angles, and honing a narrow chamfer along the cutting edge. Which of the above statements are correct?
