Modern manufacturing processes

Focusing on mechanical-based advanced manufacturing process technologies for materials, Innovations in Manufacturing provides an in-depth understanding of fundamentals on a wide range of state-of-the-art materials manufacturing processes for upper undergraduates, graduate students, and researchers in materials and mechanical engineering. Developed by editors who are known for their solid, coherent presentations, the text covers a wide array of modern manufacturing topics, including advanced, emerging and innovative manufacturing process technologies such as laser-assisted manufacturing, rapid prototyping, thermal-assisted manufacturing, electromagnetic force forming, particulate-based manufacturing, micro-manufacturing, nano-manufacturing, and electronics manufacturing.

Provides an in-depth understanding of the fundamentals of a wide range of state-of-the-art materials manufacturing processes

Modern manufacturing is at the core of industrial production from base materials to semi-finished goods and final products. Over the last decade, a variety of innovative methods have been developed that allow for manufacturing processes that are more versatile, less energy-consuming, and more environmentally friendly. This book provides readers with everything they need to know about the many manufacturing processes of today.

Presented in three parts, Modern Manufacturing Processes starts by covering advanced manufacturing forming processes such as sheet forming, powder forming, and injection molding. The second part deals with thermal and energy-assisted manufacturing processes, including warm and hot hydrostamping. It also covers high speed forming (electromagnetic, electrohydraulic, and explosive forming). The third part reviews advanced material removal process like advanced grinding, electro-discharge machining, micro milling, and laser machining. It also looks at high speed and hard machining and examines advances in material modeling for manufacturing analysis and simulation.

• Offers a comprehensive overview of advanced materials manufacturing processes
• Provides practice-oriented information to help readers find the right manufacturing methods for the intended applications
• Highly relevant for material scientists and engineers in industry

Modern Manufacturing Processes is an ideal book for practitioners and researchers in materials and mechanical engineering.
