| Agglomerating Processes | (english) "Fine particles of limestone (flux) and iron ore are difficult to handle and transport because of dusting and decomposition, so the powdery material usually is processed into larger pieces. The raw material's properties determine the technique that is used by mills. 1) SINTER Baked particles that stick together in roughly one-inch chunks. Normally used for iron ore dust collected from the blast furnaces. 2) PELLETS Iron ore or limestone particles are rolled into little balls in a balling drum and hardened by heat. 3) BRIQUETTES Small lumps are formed by pressing material together. Hot Iron Briquetting (HBI) is a concentrated iron ore substitute for scrap for use in electric furnaces. |
| Aging 1 | (english) A change in the properties of certain metal and alloys (such as steel) that occurs at ambient or moderately elevated temperatures after a hot working heat treatment or cold working operation. Typical properties impacted are hardness, yield strength, tensile strength, ductility, impact value, formability, magnetic properties, etc. See also Non-aging. |
| Aging 2 | (english) A change in properties that occurs at ambient or moderately elevated temperatures after hot working or a heat treating operation (quench aging in ferrous alloys), or after a cold working operation (strain aging). The change in properties is often, but not always, due to a phase change (precipitation), but does not involve a change in chemical composition. In a metal or alloy, a change in properties that generally occurs slowly at room temperature and more rapidly at higher temperatures. |
| Ball Piston Pumps | (english) The Ball Piston Pump is a very simple pump design. It has a rotor which revolves around an internal stator. The rotor has twelve cylinders machined out of it, and each cylinder has a ball inside which can slide in and out of the cylinder. |

| Back End | (english) 1) Usually refers to the entry end of process lines. 2) The outside lap 2) of the produced coil, or the inside lap of the consumed coil. |
| BACK PRESSURE | (english) The level of pressure on the return or downstream side of a device or system. |
| Back Rake | (english) The angular surface ground back from the cutting edge of cutting tools. On lathe cutting tools. The rake is positive if the face slopws down from the cutting edge toward the shank, and negative if the face sloopes upward toward the shank. |
| BACK-UP RING | (english) A fabric or plastic device that is used with an o-ring or other gasket to prevent extrusion of the o-ring or gasket into an adjacent space or crevice |
| Backer (back-up plate) | (english) A “tool” or reinforcing part, which presses against the outer surface of an extrusion die, supporting it against the pressure of the extruding metal. The backer has an opening larger than the die aperture, allowing the extruded product to emerge without marring its soft surface. |
