About this title

Synopsis

Metal cutting is one of the most widely used methods of producing the final shape of manufactured products. This text treats the scientific principles of metal cutting and their practical application to manufacturing problems. The author uses mathematics, physics, computers, software, and instrumentation as integration tools in analyzing machine implements and manufacturing processes. A special feature is the in-depth coverage of chatter vibrations, a problem experienced daily by practicing manufacturing engineers. The essential topics of programming, design, and automation of CNC (computer numerical control) machine tools; NC (numerical control) programming; and CAD/CAM technology are fully discussed. Each chapter includes industrial examples, design projects, and homework problems.

Book Description

This book treats the scientific principles of metal cutting and their practical application to producing manufactured products. It begins with the fundamentals of metal cutting mechanics and features in-depth coverage of chatter vibrations, a common problem in manufacturing. The essential topics of programming, design, and automation of CNC (computer numerical control) machine tools; NC (numerical control) programming; and CAD/CAM technology are fully discussed. Each chapter includes examples drawn from industry, design projects, and homework problems. Advanced undergraduate and graduate students, as well as practicing engineers, will find this book a clear and thorough way to learn the engineering principles of metal cutting mechanics, CNC system design, and CAD/CAM technology.
