Using the same easy-to-follow style of the First Edition, the Second Edition of this book presents all vital aspects of manufacturing engineering, Fully updated and revised, the Second Edition reveals how to ensure that a product design is producible before its release to manufacturing... develop a manufacturing cost estimate that comes close to actual costs ... plan and implement efficient manufacturing research and development ... and more.
This textbook also offers end-of-chapter questions, a Solution Manual for Instructors, a new appendix with basic machining data, an expanded appendix of manufacturing terminology, and new illustrations and examples.
The Second Edition of Manufacturing Engineering serves as an ideal primary text for upper-level undergraduate and graduate courses in manufacturing engineering and manufacturing or operations technology.
