Manufacturing Engineering: Principles for Optimization - Hardcover

Inhaltsangabe

Manufacturing engineers are constantly in the forefront of integrated corporate programmes, so they must be well grounded in the management practices and philosophies of their profession. Unfortunately, engineering students often enter the workforce with little understanding of how their field works. To remedy this situation, this book offers instruction in manufacturing engineering management strategies, designed to help the student optimize future manufacturing processes and procedures. While retaining the approach and breadth as the original, this second edition includes those innovations that have changed management's approach toward the uses of manufacturing engineering within the business continuum. It is shown how manufacturing engineering acts as either the core or the catalyst of computer integrated manufacturing (CIM), manufacturing resources planning (MRP II), and just in time (JIT), as well as total quality management (TQM) and concurrent engineering. These topics are covered in considerable depth in a manner that keeps proper perspective with base theory of manufacturing engineering. Ample review questions allow students to develop a full understanding of the topics.
