Review: To remain competitive, manufacturers need to keep up to date with the latest methods, processes and systems with a structure based on the latest technology and best use of human resources. This book begins by looking at managing and training human resources, and goes on to explain in detail new manufacturing technologies. There are whole sections on: material removal processes; cutting tools and accessories; work holding devices; special machines; non-conventional material removal processes; non-material removal processes; computer numerical control and CAD manufacturing; measurement, inspection and quality control; manufacturing systems; and other technologies such as cryogenic tempering and nanotechnology.
