Description
Elsevier Degarmos Materials And Processes In Manufacturing 14Ed (Hb 2024) by Kohser R A
Classic textbook introducing key concepts in manufacturing with a focus on practical applications, updated to include the latest industry developments. For over 65 years, DeGarmo’s Materials and Processes in Manufacturing has comprehensively presented both traditional and new manufacturing materials, processes, and systems in a descriptive, non-mathematical manner. Students are first introduced to a range of engineering materials, including metals, plastics and polymers, ceramics, and composites. The processes used to convert this “stuff” into “things” are then described, along with their typical applications, capabilities, and limitations. Segments cover casting, forming, machining, welding and joining, and additive manufacturing. Supporting chapters present concepts relating to material selection, heat treatment, surface finishing, measurement, inspection, and manufacturing systems.
