Description: Metal machining
is the most widespread metal-shaping process in the mechanical manufacturing
industry. World-wide investment in metal machining tools increases year on year
- and the wealth of nations can be judged by it. This text - the most
up-to-date in the field - provides in-depth discussion of the theory and
application of metal machining at an advanced level. It begins with an overview
of the development of metal machining and its role in the current industrial
environment and continues with a discussion of the theory and practice of
machining. The underlying mechanics are analysed in detail and there are
extensive chapters examining applications through a discussion of simulation
and process control.
"Metal
Machining: Theory and Applications" is essential reading for senior
undergraduates and postgraduates specialising in cutting technology. It is also
an invaluable reference tool for professional engineers. Professors Childs,
Maekawa, Obikawa and Yamane are four of the leading authorities on metal
machining and have worked together for many years.
Of interest to
all mechanical, manufacturing and materials engineers
Theoretical and
practical problems addressed.
