ISBN 1118393678 ISBN-13 9781118393673
This text is an unbound, binder-ready edition. Fundamentals of Modern Manufacturing: Materials, Processes, and Systems, 5th Edition, is designed for a first course or two-course sequence in Manufacturing at the junior level in Mechanical, Industrial, and Manufacturing Engineering curricula. Given its coverage of engineering materials, it is also be suitable for Materials Science and Engineering courses that emphasize Materials Processing. In addition, it may be appropriate for technology programs related to the preceding engineering disciplines. Most of the books content focuses on Manufacturing Processes (about 65% of the text), but it also covers Engineering Materials and Production Systems.
