The process of removing stock from a metal surface is known as ______

Explanation:

Honing:

• Honing is an abrading process mostly used for polishing bored and reamed holes and external cylindrical surfaces using bonded abrasive stones (called hones).
• Honing is, in fact, a cutting operation and is used to remove material less than 0.25 mm but sometimes it is used to remove stock up to 3 mm also
• The honing is mainly used to correct some out of roundness, taper, and tool marks left by previous operation or axial distortions
• Honing is done by means of bonded abrasive grit sticks (of aluminium oxide or silicon carbide) applied to the surface to be honed under controlled pressure and with a combination of rotary and reciprocating motions of abrasives
• Most honing is done on an internal cylindrical surface, such as automobile cylindrical walls.

• After the stock removed by honing, the allowable tolerance is between 0.005 mm to 0.5 mm

  

Additional Information

Soldering:

• Soldering is a non-fusion and non-pressure welding operation.
• The mechanism by which the joint formation taking place is wetting and surface alloying.
• The filler material used having a melting temperature less than 427°c
• Borax is used as Flux material.
• The filler material used is an alloy of lead and tin known as solder.
• Filler material entered into the workpiece by means of capillary action.

Brazing:

• It is also a non-fusion and non-pressure welding operation. 
• Filler material- Alloy of Cu and Zn, Cu and Ag, Cu and Al
• Flux material- Borax
• Filler material entered into the workpiece by means of capillary action.
• Filler material melting temperature greater than 427°c and less than the melting point of the base material
