Synopsis
This is the revised edition of a best-selling book that introduces materials and processes in manufacturing.
Materials and Processes in Manufacturing provides a descriptive introduction to manufacturing processes, materials, and manufacturing systems. It solidly integrates discussions of materials and processes through the use of numerous illustration, photographs, and diagrams throughout the book. The emphasis on application and design established in previous editions has been maintained. The eighth edition of Materials and Processes in Manufacturing has been completely revised and updated to reflect all current practices, standards, and materials. In addition, all illustrations have been redrawn or are completely new and chapter outlines have been added to the beginning of each chapter.
