Design for Manufacturability Handbook
by James G. Bralla, 1344pp,1999, ISBN: 007007139X
    A major revision of the highly respected reference detailing the principles and procedures for designing products for easy and economical manufacture, known as DFM (Design for Manufacturability).

Using this handbook, a design engineer can produce a design that meets the objectives of low cost as well as function, durability, and appearance. 

    Engineers and manufacturers will use the recommendations found in this book to save time and material, reduce expenses, simulate new ideas, improve job performance, and make better decisions.
    Utilize this exacting blueprint to improve quality and economy of your manufactured product, at every state of manufacturing.

From raw materials...to machining and casting... to assembly and finishing, the Second Edition of this classic guide will introduce you to the principles and procedures of Design for Manufacturability (DFM)--the art of developing high-quality products for the lowest possible manufacturing cost. Written by over 70 experts in manufacturing and product design, this popular productivity tool gives you the know-how to design products for function, quality, reliability, maintainability, and benefits to the environment--while drastically simplifying the manufacturing required!

If you want to achieve world-class quality and economy in your manufacturing operations--this is the book that will help you save time and materials... reduce expenses... stimulate new ideas...improve job performance... and make better design decisions.
