TITLE : WORKSHOP 1 FITTING

INTRODUCTION
In engineering bench work and fitting have
important rules to play to complete and finish a job
to the desired accuracy. The term bench work
generally denates the production of our article by
hand on the bench. Fitting is assembling together
of part and remaining metals to secure the
necessary fit, and may or be carried out at the
bench.

Objective
End of the session we should able to.

Measure and mark file edge, file surface,

file angle, hacksaw, drill hole, tapping in,
punch the of work piece.

Operate drilling machine post.

Recognize the hand tools used in the

fitting process.

Learn how to use the vernier caliper for

measuring.

Read and interpret engineering drawing.

Know basic workshop process.

Inspect the job for specified dimensions.

Adopt safety practices while working on

various machines.

Safety precautions
The following safety precautions should be taken
when using hand tools and equipment precautions
are most important from accident.

Before any work is carried out in the

workshop, permission must be obtained from
the workshop supervisor or lecturer.

Always wear eye protection when using

power operated hand or machine tools such as
goggle.

Work areas and equipment are to be

thoroughly cleaned after use.

Keep proper discipline in the workshop.

Do not play with the tool because they are

sharp.

When using Hacksaw, check its teeth

should be sharp and forward position.

When using chisel its direction should be

kept away from other working persons.


When using Hacksaw check its blade with
must be fitted in pins properly.

Clean up oil and grease or other liquid

which spills on the flour otherwise they may
be a cause of accident.

Do not wear any neck tie, jewel, rings,

watches during in the working in shops.

If last to leave the workshop, make sure all

equipment are turned off.

Tools equipment
Measured tools

Steel ruler

Scriber

L-square

 Vernier Caliper

Centre punch

Holding tools

Bench vice

Cutting tools

Flat file

Square file

Round file

File card

Hacksaw

Chisel

Drilling mechine

And another tools

Vernier height gauge

Angle plates

Procedure
1. Prepare mild steel piece follow measure that
prescribed. Mark using scriber.

2. File two surface of the work piece to be 90`

( measured by L-square ) 30cm X 60cm
3. Mark all dimension by using vernier height
gauge

4. Cut the work piece which is not required by

using hacksaw

5. Remove the work piece that is not required

using a chisel and hammer.

6. Measure the length of the pieces using vernier

caliper to get accurate measurement.

7. File all side of work piece to be 90

8. Mark the location of hole using center punch

and hammer

9. Drill hole according to the size of diameter

required, using post drilling machine.

10. Cut the internal thread according to the size

thread hole using hand tap.
11. File the pieces to 90

12. After that fit the two pieces together.

Observation
Problem encountered during fitting:
1. Cutting on the work pieces not straight?
Solution : hold hack saw on proper way.Tilt the
hack saw 45 from the workpiece when cutting.
2. Lack of accuracy on measurement?
Solution : Make sure the surface of work piece flat
when marking using angle plate and vernier height
gauge. Non flat surface will affect the
measurement and also the shape.

3. Work pieces not in required shape or not fit each

other?
Solution: Make sure the surface of work piece flat
when marking using angle plate and vernier height
gauge. Non-flat surface will affect the
measurement and also the shape.

Conclusion
On the end of this Fitting project we had learn
how to use equipment and machine such as files,
center punch, vernier height gauge and drilling
machine. We also learned how to conduct a project
and finish its report.we also know how to
communicate each other to finish this project .we
also learned the importance of fitting process in
engineering field.
