Today's fast-paced manufacturing culture demands a handbook that
provides how-to, no-holds-barred, no-frills information. Completely
revised and updated, the "Handbook of Manufacturing Engineerin"g is
now presented in four volumes. Keeping the same general format as
the first edition, this second edition not only provides more
information but makes it more accessible. Each individual volume
narrows the focus while broadening the coverage, giving you
immediate access to the information you need. Volume One, Product
Design and Factory Development reveals how human factors deeply
affect productivity in the workplace and why the modern
manufacturing engineer must be well versed in these areas.
Edited by Richard Crowson with contributions from experts in
each field, the book considers historical data for anthropometry
and explores the impact of injuries, product liability, and low
productivity on product cost. The book sequentially outlines the
basic concepts of reliability theory in six chapters along with
commonly used statistical methods for evaluating component
reliability. It covers rapid prototyping, explores the machine
debugging and troubleshooting process, and devotes an entire
chapter to computers and controllers.
The challenges presented by the fiercely technical world we live
and work in are met by the manufacturing engineer. Companies can no
longer afford to allow the manufacturing engineer to learn on the
job. Therefore, the manufacturing engineer must gain as much
knowledge from as many credible sources as possible. Covering the
global picture of manufacturing, this book shows you how to
successfully apply manufacturing engineering skills on the job.
