The first part of Volume I outlines the origins and development of CNC machine tools. It explains the construction of the equipment and also discusses the various elements necessary to ensure high quality of production. The second part considers how a company justifies the purchase of either cells or systems and illustrates why simulation exercises are essential prior to a full implementation. Communication protocols as well as networking topologies are examined. Finally, the important high-speed machining developments and the drive towards ultra-high precision are mentioned. Following a brief historical introduction to cutting tool development, chapters 1 and 2 of Volume II explain why CNC requires a change in cutting tool technology from conventional methods. A presentation is given of the working knowledge of cutting tools and cutting fluids which is needed to make optimal use of the productive capacity of CNC machines. Since an important consideration for any machine tool is how one can locate and restrain the workpiece in the correct orientation and with the minimum of set-up time, chapter 3 is concerned with workholding technology. Volume III deals with CNC programming. It has been written in conjunction with a major European supplier of controllers in order to give the reader a more consistent and in-depth understanding of the logic used to program such machines. It explains how why and where to program specific features of a part and how to build them up into complete programs. Thus, the reader will learn about the main aspects of the logical structure and compilation of a program. Finally, there is a brief review of so me of the typical controllers currently available from both universal and proprietary builders.

The book is aimed at those wishing to gain a basic knowledge of the practical aspects of the four most widely used welding processes: manual metal arc (MMA), metal inert/active gas (MIG/AG), tungsten inert gas (TIG) and oxy-acetylene welding and cutting. In addition to a detailed treatment of these four methods, further sections deal with the various angles at which welding can be carried out, the effect of the different materials, and quality assessment. Important safety information is collected into a preliminary section whilst highlighted safety warnings carry the safety theme through the entire text. Features to aid comprehension include a glossary of welding terms and symbols, self-assessment questions and a guide to current welder qualifications in the light of recent European standardisation.

These lesson plans were devised as a result of the author's experience of teaching carpentry toolmaking in East Africa, and include guidelines for lessons on theoretical aspects of toolmaking, as well as practical demonstrations. Students should already be familiar with basic woodworking techniques, including the preparation of timber, marking out and cutting joints, and the construction of simple items of furniture. There is also advice on simple blacksmithing techniques followed by demonstration plans for the metal parts of tools to aid the teaching of this aspect of toolmaking. The book is intended for students of woodworking and metal-working skills in developing countries, and their teachers and trainers.

Falls Sie Wissenschaftler oder Praktiker auf dem Gebiet der Umformtechnik sind, so stehen die ersten drei Bande dieser umfassenden und detaillierten Standardreferenz wahrscheinlich schon in Ihrem Regal. Der vierte Band komplettiert das Werk. Auch er wurde von fuhrenden Industriepraktikern und Wissenschaftlern unter der Federfuhrung eines der renommiertesten Fachleute auf diesem Gebiet verfasst."

Seit Erscheinen der ersten Auflage dieses Werkes unter dem Titel "Lehrbuch der Umformtechnik" hat sich die Anwendung umformender Fertigungsverfahren in der industriellen Produktion und parallel dazu die Verbreiterung und Vertiefung der technisch-wissenschaftlichen Grundlagen der Umformtechnik ohne Zweifel weltweit in sich beschleunigendem Tempo fortgesetzt. Antriebskrafte sind dabei der Zwang zu wirtschaftlicherer Verwendung von Energie und Rohstoffen einer- seits sowie die Nutzung der hohen Produktivitat umformender Fertigungsverfah- ren zur Dampfung des Kostenanstiegs in der Produktion andererseits. Eingeschlos- sen hierin ist das Bemiihen um das Erzeugen moglichst einbaufertiger Werkstiicke durch Umformen oder das Absenken nachfolgender Fertigbearbeitung zur Er- zeugung umformend nicht herstellbarer Geometrieelemente, zum Erzielen besserer MaBgenauigkeiten und bestimmter OberfHichenfeinstrukturen. Ziel war und ist dabei die Entwicklung einer "Prazisionsumformtechnik", der auch ein im Jahre 1981 angelaufenes Schwerpunktprogramm der Deutschen Forschungsgemein- schaft gewidmet ist. Voraussetzung hierfiir ist auch die seit Erscheinen der ersten Auflage zu verzeichnende Intensivierung bei der Entwicklung neuer Werkstoffe mit gezielt geziichteten Verarbeitungs- und Gebrauchseigenschaften sowohl fUr Massiv- als auch Blechumformung; hingewiesen sei hier stellvertretend auf die neuen hochfesten tiefziehfahigen Blechqualitaten. Die Technologie der Umformtechnik wurde durch zahlreiche wissenschaftliche Arbeiten in den fUhrenden Industrielandern weiterentwickelt und in ihren Grund- lagen vertieft. Erfahrung wird dadurch zunehmend durch quantitativ gesichertes Wissen ersetzt. Hierzu tragt nicht nur die weiterhin verbesserte MeBtechnik in Verbindung mit leistungsfahigeren Geraten zur Datenverarbeitung bei als auch der zunehmende Einsatz des Rechners zur ProzeB-Analysis und -Simulation. Moderne MeBtechnik hat auch den breiteren Einbezug tribologischer Phanomene in Grundlagenuntersuchungen fUr die Umformtechnik ermoglicht.

The evolution of mechanical properties and its characterization is important to the weld quality whose further analysis requires mechanical property and microstructure correlation. Present book addresses the basic understanding of the Friction Stir Welding (FSW) process that includes effect of various process parameters on the quality of welded joints. It discusses about various problems related to the welding of dissimilar aluminium alloys including influence of FSW process parameters on the microstructure and mechanical properties of such alloys. As a case study, effect of important process parameters on joint quality of dissimilar aluminium alloys is included.
