Brief Description of the Book: The 16-chapter book with over 300 illustrations addresses the three important aspects of manufacturing under one title - design, production processes, and automation. Design is discussed from concept development to the engineering analysis of the final product. Fabrication processes are subsequently detailed and also discussed in the context of product design as well as potential automation aspects. In the third part of the book, manufacturing control is discussed at the machine level as well as at the system level. |
