Math for Machinists provides students with a review of basic math operations (whole numbers, fractions, decimals, percentages) and measurements, and additional math topics directly applicable to machining and manufacturing, such as precision measurements, angles, area, volume, gear calculations, trigonometry, and working with coordinate systems. Creative machine shop-related problems and pertinent exercises help students develop their math skills, troubleshooting skills, and their knowledge of the trade. Updated by new author John Templeton, this edition includes eight new units, hundreds of additional applied practice problems, plus many new end-of-unit review questions throughout the text. Answers to odd-numbered problems are listed in the back of the text for self-assessment.

This manual is about proven principles of success in metal fabrication. The material presented is practical and in-use, as the examples will show. While the primary focus of this book is on machining titanium, many of the items discussed could apply to any machining or manufacturing enterprise.The look and feel of a world-class shop is described with many examples. If you own, manage, or work at a general or titanium machine shop, or at virtually any metal fabrication shop, you will find yourself referring to this manual over and over again This manual is about proven principles of success in metal fabrication.
