macroetching
Metals; Metallurgy
Etching of a metal surface with the objective of accentuating gross structural details, for observation by the unaided eye or at magnifications not exceeding ten diameters.
macrograph
Metals; Metallurgy
A photographic reproduction of any object that has not been magnified more than ten times.
macroscopic
Metals; Metallurgy
Visible either with the naked eye or under low magnification (as great as about ten diameters.
macro-etch
Metals; Metallurgy
Etching of a metal surface for accentuation of gross structural details and defects for observation by the unaided eye or at magnifications not exceeding ten diameters.
machinability index
Metals; Metallurgy
A relative measure of the machinability of an engineering material under specified standard conditions.
Luders Lines or Bands
Metals; Metallurgy
Elongated surface markings or depressions caused by localized plastic deformation that results form discontinuous (inhomogeneous) yielding.
