Ductility:
It is the
ability of material to deform plastically without repture under tensile load.
This property facilitates the wire drawing operation.
A
ductile material can be drawn out into fine wire without fracture.
Malleability:
It
is the ability of material to deform plastically without repture under
Compressive load.
Machinability:
It is the
ability of a material on which we can cut (or) remove the material in the form
of chips by cutting tool by various operations. Machining operations such as Turning, tapering, drilling, milling, facing etc.,
Machinability
depends upon mechanical and physical properties of a metal.
Formability:
It is the
property of a metal, on which different shapes and sizes can be formed (pressed by forging).
Formability
depends upon structure and grain size.
