This new edition textbook provides comprehensive knowledge and insight into various aspects of manufacturing technology, processes, materials, tooling, and equipment. Its main objective is to introduce the grand spectrum of manufacturing technology to individuals who will be involved in the design and manufacturing of finished products and to provide them with basic information on manufacturing technologies. Manufacturing Technology: Materials, Processes, and Equipment, Second Edition, is written in a descriptive manner, where the emphasis is on the fundamentals of the process, its capabilities, typical applications, advantages, and limitations. Mathematical modeling and equations are used only when they enhance the basic understanding of the material dealt with. The book is a fundamental textbook that covers all the manufacturing processes, materials, and equipment used to convert the raw materials to a final product. It presents the materials used in manufacturing processes and covers the heat treatment processes, smelting of metals, and other technological processes such as casting, forming, powder metallurgy, joining processes, and surface technology. Manufacturing processes for polymers, ceramics, and composites are also covered. The book also covers surface technology, fundamentals of traditional and nontraditional machining processes, numerical control of machine tools, industrial robots and hexapods, additive manufacturing, and industry 4.0 technologies. The book is written specifically for undergraduates in industrial, manufacturing, mechanical, and materials engineering disciplines of the second to fourth levels to cover complete courses of manufacturing technology taught in engineering colleges and institutions all over the world. It also covers the needs of production and manufacturing engineers and technologists participating in related industries where it is expected to be part of their professional library. Additionally, the book can be used by students in other disciplines concerned with design and manufacturing, such as automotive and aerospace engineering.

The rapidly-expanding aerospace industry is a prime developer and user of advanced metallic and composite materials in its many products. This book concentrates on the manufacturing technology necessary to fabricate and assemble these materials into useful and effective structural components. Detailed chapters are dedicated to each key metal or alloy used in the industry, including aluminum, magnesium, beryllium, titanium, high strength steels, and superalloys. In addition the book deals with composites, adhesive bonding and presents the essentials of structural assembly. This book will be an important resource for all those involved in aerospace design and construction, materials science and engineering, as well as for metallurgists and those working in related sectors such as the automotive and mass transport industries.

A practical guide to materials and manufacturing concepts and applicationsWritten in a straightforward, conversational style, this comprehensive textbook offers a hands-on introduction to materials science and manufacturing techniques. You will explore metallic and nonmetallic materials, their properties and applications, and how products are made from them, including traditional, additive, and advanced manufacturing methods. Materials and Manufacturing: An Introduction to How They Work and Why It Matters starts off by explaining materials science fundamentals and progresses to outline manufacturing processes in the order in which they are often employed. Coverage includes:•Metallic materials and processing•Nonmetallic materials and processing•Practical considerations in materials and manufacturing•Material structure, identification, and application•Compositional and property-based classification•Mechanical, thermal, and environmental concepts•Methods of testing materials•Sawing, broaching, filing, and abrasive machining•Milling, turning, boring, and hole making operations•Cohesive assembly through heat and chemical welding•Mechanical and adhesive assembly and finishing operations•The benefits and roles of additive and advanced manufacturing

This book provides the latest cutting-edge technology on the development of new green composite materials and advanced manufacturing processes along with concepts and applications.

The first manufacturing book to examine time-based break-even analysis, this landmark reference/text applies cost analysis to a variety of industrial processes, employing a new, problem-based approach to manufacturing procedures, materials, and management. An Introduction to Manufacturing Processes and Materials integrates analysis of material costs and process costs, yielding a realistic, effective approach to planning and executing efficient manufacturing schemes. It discusses tool engineering, particularly in terms of cost for press work, forming dies, and casting patterns, process parameters such as gating and riser design for casting, feeds, and more.

Modern Manufacturing Technology & Cost Estimation offers a systematic coverage of essential advanced manufacturing processes. Throughout the book authors stress practical approach to near-net-shape and non-traditional (EDM, ECM) processes. Technological developments have recently advanced along with materials, tooling and machines. This book serves as the concise resource related to: Electrophysical and electrochemical methods and principles Near-net-shape processes and applications Technological Knowledge systems developments material - process: cost relationships¿ technology-oriented published, Internet and periodical information This book enables a practitioner: efficiently perform feasibility study develop a basis for cost-oriented decision support acquire new knowledge or to refresh knowledge related to manufacturing analysis and characteristics. This on-the-job book will support cost justification studies, reduce decision time which is critical for busy professionals. Furthermore, it offers common engineering vision for the cross-functional team of manufacturing engineer, product designer, purchasing specialist, sales and marketing professionals. It is written for a practitioner who does not have time to undertake the long hours needed to research the subject The cost reduction course presented in this book can become a model for a set of training courses. Additionally, the book contains useful visual models and templates, examples and diagrams. If technologies described in this book can replace several traditional operations, consolidate product features and improve quality, that means, based on Modern Manufacturing Technology & Cost Estimation a practitioner will be able: generate more creative and cost saving ideas, concepts correctly diagnose a manufacturing problem optimize material and process selection improve mold and die manufacturing processes
