1000s of instant metalworking and manufacturing terms defined. Agile
manufacturing... stereolithography... thriller tool... superabrasives - whenever you're stumped by an unfamiliar metalworking or manufacturing term or concept, just turn to the ILLUSTRATED DICTIONARY OF METALWORKING AND MANUFACTURING, by veteran engineer Steve Krar. |
|
| Arranged in an easy-to-use alphabetical format, this versatile, fully illustrated reference gives you much more than instant definitions of technical terms like "part programming," "cartesian coordinate system," "machining center," and "compensation ". It's also an essential mechanical engineering design resource packed with page after page of accurate drawings you can use in your own diagrams and renderings. You get thousands of illustrations showing the full range of metalworking and manufacturing materials, methods, and techniques. Whether you're in the skilled trades, designing metal parts or metallurgical processes, or running any type of manufacturing operation, you can save yourself hours of time, effort, and confusion with this all-encompassing dictionary on your desk. |
| The Dictionary includes information on machine tools, manufacturing techniques, traditional and non-traditional machining processes, dies, jigs, fixtures, laser technology, robotics, measurement, inspection, quality control, welding, computer applications, and much more. |
| This sweeping new resource provides professionals in metalworking, manufacturing, and the skilled trades with clear, concise, and practical descriptions of all technical terms specific to these technologies - from more conventional manufacturing processes and machine, hand, and cutting tools to CNC machining processes, nontraditional machining processes, welding, computer and internet applications, laser technology, and robotics. |
