Ebook: Metal Shaping Processes - Casting and Molding; Particulate Processing; Deformation Processes; and Metal Removal

As the only comprehensive text focusing on metal shaping processes, this book presents the fundamentals of metal shaping processes with their relevant applications. The treatment of the subject matter is adequately descriptive for those unfamiliar with the various processes and yet is sufficiently analytical for an introductory academic course in manufacturing. The text, as well as the numerous formulas and illustrations in each chapter, clearly show that shaping processes, as a part of manufacturing engineering, are a complex and interdisciplinary subject. The topics are organized and presented in such a manner that they motivate and challenge students to present technically and economically viable solutions to a wide variety of questions and problems, including product design. It is the perfect textbook for students in mechanical, industrial, and manufacturing engineering, as well a valuable reference for manufacturing engineers; process engineers; manufacturing managers and supervisors; product design engineers; and maintenance and reliability managers and technicians.
