Opis

This forward-thinking, practical book provides essential information on modern machining technology for industry with emphasis on the processes used regularly across several major industries. Machining technology presents great interest for many important industries including automotive, aeronautics, aerospace, renewable energy, moulds and dies, biomedical, and many others. Machining processes are manufacturing processes in which parts are shaped by the removal of unwanted material; these processes cover several stages and are usually divided into the following categories: cutting (involving single point or multipoint cutting tools); abrasive processes (including grinding and advanced machining processes, such as EDM (electrical discharge machining), LBM (laser-beam machining), AWJM (abrasive water jet machining) and USM (ultrasonic machining).

• Provides essential information on modern machining technology, with emphasis on the processes used regularly across several major industries
• Covers several processes and outlines their many stages
• Contributions come from a series of international, highly knowledgeable and well-respected experts

Recenzje

"This publication is a digestible, practical guide to modern machining technology. It will be useful to production managers as well as mechanical engineering students." --Materials World, Professor Alan Stainer FIMMM
