The objectives of the trip were to provide practical experience of metal production processes. Students observed the production of ferrous and non-ferrous metals from scrap materials using melting, refining, and shaping techniques. Key processes observed included heat treatment, hardening, annealing, tempering, and forging. The trip concluded after 6 hours and achieved its goal of providing students hands-on learning about metal manufacturing.

    Introduction

    In July 25th 2022, Mechanical Department Students with 2 lecturers


    went for a trip to Ethio- Engineering Group Akaki Basic Metals Industry.
    We arrived there at 9:00 am.We planned to visit basic metal-making
    processes done in the workshop.

    Trip objective

    The objectives of the educational trip was to provide students with


    practical and theoretical experience of basic metal-making processes
    done in industry.

    Field Observation

    After we arrived there students are classified in 2 groups and then our
    lecture meet us with our tour guide and told him to give us
    information concerned to heat treatment processes and how metals
    are manufactured there.

    Then we were guided by a tour host who explained in detail the ferrous
    and non-ferrous metal production processes and the raw materials
    needed for the production. He first took us where the non-ferrous
    materials were made. The non-ferrous materials include bronze, lead,
    zinc, copper, etc. The raw materials needed for this production is
    mainly scraps. The scraps are collected and melted, then they'll do
    some composition to it. Then they'll refine to find what's in the melted
    scrap by doing a laboratory test. Then he showed us different
    mechanisms they use to melt and mix the scraps. Finally, he took us to
    the first place where the non-ferrous and ferrous scraps were gathered.
    We finished this tour after our assistant told us they produce different
    products based on the customers’ needs.

    The next place we went was the heat treatment workshop. There, we
    had met another tour guide and he took us through workshop. In a
    washing machine, the products are cleaned. The next piece of
    equipment was a sealed quench furnace. Cleaning the oil that was
    taken out of the sealed quench furnace is the washer's main job. The
    processes of hardening, annealing and tempering were carried out
    using a variety of techniques.

    The last workshop we visited was the forging shop. Here, our tour
    guide started by introducing his name. His name is Abera and he is the
    forging shop leader.

    Firstly we saw some samples manufactured there and he told us the


    forging process that they used for shaping materials the process that
    are carried out on materials in either hot or cold state . They offer
    products for cement factories, mining industries, ELPA, and the
    agricultural sector. They use the three kinds of forging methods. These
    are forging, upset forging, and roll forging .
    Conclusion

    Our trip ended about 6.00 pm. It can be concluded that the trip was
    successful and we believed that our objective was achieved. We
    learned something new and beneficial for us.

    Many thanks to all of the industry, university , and our tour guides that
    were responsible for making this trip the success that it was. This
    experience would not be possible without your continued support.
    Thanks also to our lecture.
