  • Manufacturing

    Design, Science and Engineering of How Things are Made
    • 2 Edición
    • Erik Tempelman + 1 más
    • Inglés
    Manufacturing: Design, Science and Engineering of How Things are Made, Second Edition presents a fresh view on the world of industrial production, in terms of both abstraction levels and trade-offs. The book invites its readers to distinguish between what is possible in principle for a certain process (as determined by physical law); what is possible in practice (the production method as determined by industrial state-of-the-art); and what is possible for a certain supplier (as determined by its production equipment). Specific processes considered include metal forging, extrusion, and casting; plastic injection molding and thermoforming; additive manufacturing; joining; recycling, and more. By tackling the field of manufacturing processes from this new angle, the book makes the most out of a reader's limited time. It gives the knowledge needed to not only create well-producible designs, but also to understand supplier needs in order to find the optimal compromise. Apart from improving design for production, this publication raises the standards of thinking about producibility.

  • Smart Manufacturing 5.0

    Sustainability, Human-Centricity and Resilience
    • 1 Edición
    • Daniel Alejandro Rossit + 1 más
    • Inglés
    Smart Manufacturing 5.0: Sustainability, Human-Centricity and Resilience offers essential insights into sustainable engineering and industrial innovation trends. The fourth industrial revolution, or Smart Manufacturing, integrates digital technologies with production and management systems, enabling real-time data access and improved decision-making. This integration enhances agility, flexibility and control, potentially achieving zero-defect manufacturing. However, the heavy reliance on technology and real-time data processing can challenge human interaction. As humans cannot process vast data in real-time, there is a need for better approaches to facilitate effective human-technology interaction.
