Comprehensive, detailed, and organized for speedyreference--everything you need to know about modern manufacturingtechnology. From concurrent engineering to fixture design formachining systems, from robotics and artificial intelligence tofacility layout planning and automated CAD-based inspection, thishandbook provides all the information you need to design, plan, andimplement a modern, efficient manufacturing system tailored to yourcompany's special needs and requirements. Handbook of Design,Manufacturing and Automation does more than simply present thecharacteristics and specifications of each technology--much more.Each technology is discussed both in terms of its own capabilitiesand in terms of its compatibility with other technologies, and thetrade-offs involved in choosing one option over another areexplored at length. An entire section is devoted to the businessaspects of converting to the new technologies, includingacquisition of automation, managing advanced manufacturingtechnology, and issues of cost and financing. The focus is onincorporating these technologies into a cohesive whole--anefficient, cost-effective manufacturing system. Other importanttopics include:
* Design for automated manufacturing
* Nontraditional manufacturing processes
* Machine tool programming techniques and trends
* Precision engineering and micromanufacturing
* Computer-integrated product planning and control
* Image processing for manufacturing
* And much more

Computer integrated manufacturing (CIM) enables companies to cut production costs and increase worker productivity, while improving quality and reducing the occurrence of defects. In order to take full advantage of the potential offered by this array of new technologies, manufacturers must make major changes in the way they design products, view quality, store and transport materials, and coordinate the flow of materials and operations. They must also determine which of these new technologies are best suited to their particular needs and how to implement them at minimum cost. Handbook of Design, Manufacturing and Automation provides comprehensive and detailed information on the theory and applications of the entire spectrum of CIM technologies. Working with a team of more than 50 contributing authors?all of them recognized experts in their fields?Richard Dorf and Andrew Kusiak cover every aspect of modern automated manufacturing technology. Not only do they discuss the capabilities of different technologies, their compatibility with various systems, and the trade-offs associated with each option presented, but they also delve into design issues, financial analysis, ergonomics, and other topics relevant to the creation of entire, smooth-running manufacturing systems. This book provides quick and easy access to everything you need to know about:
