The Miniature Guide to Manufacturing (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

If you ever looked at something and said to yourself 'I wonder how that was made', now you can find out. This manufacturing guide provides an overview of the major manufacturing processes, explains how they work and what is good or bad about them.

A ready reference for the most common manufacturing processes available to engineers for the production of engineered components. The main focus is on the four manufacturing categories of:

Machining
Casting
Forming
Joining

The book is perfect for mechanical and production engineers looking for a summary insight into current manufacturing processes, what their advantages are, what their disadvantages are, associated cost implications and the materials they are suited to. But it will also interest those people who would just like to know how things are made in the world of industrial manufacturing.
