Written by a team of educators with unmatched
experience, in collaboration with a consortium of industrial representatives
from Black and Decker, Boeing, Caterpillar, General Motors, Grumman,
Tektronix, Texas Instruments, Westinghouse, and Xerox, Manufacturing Processes
Reference Guide provides thorough descriptions of over 125 of the most
important processes available to industry today. This important resource
encompasses the entire spectrum of manufacturing, from "Abrasive Jet
Machining" to "Wire Drawing." Used with Fundamental Principles
of Manufacturing Processes, the two books provide all the information needed
to identify the ideal process for a specific manufacturing requirement.
"Todd, Allen, and Alting's book is intended to help integrate design and
manufacturing engineering activities by providing students of engineering and
designers in industry with easily accessible information about common
manufacturing processes. The authors rightfully believe that the first step in
designing a component is for the designer to become familiar with the
processes that will be used in its manufacture. This always leads to more
practical, less expensive, and better designed products. [Recommended for]
upper-division undergraduate through professional." SCIENCE AND
TECHNOLOGY Magazine.
FEATURES
Breaks down the treatment of each process
into three categories: Knowledge, Application, and Development and organizes
each process family based on common characteristics. Comprehensively
illustrates, defines, and explains each process to provide the reader with an
unequaled understanding of the process and its applications. Encourages an
appreciation of the integration of design and manufacturing engineering
activities that results in more practical, less expensive, and better designed
products for the consumer.
