Inhaltsangabe

The most balanced coverage of Computer Aided Design and Manufacture available!

Providing a balanced coverage of both aspects of CADCAM, this book explores the processes of defining a product design with the aid of computers, of developing manufacturing plans and instructions for the product, and of managing the manufacturing system itself. The book has been thoroughly updated and expanded for this second edition and the mix of theory, practice and analysis makes it suitable for both analytical and overview courses.

This book provides an ideal core text for CADCAM courses at undergraduate degree level in Industrial, Mechanical, Manufacturing and Production Engineering.

The application of computers to the product design and manufacturing process (known as CADCAM) is a successful and important technology which integrates the traditionally separate disciplines of Design and Manufacture.

Chris McMahon and Jimmie Browne¿s text will guide you carefully through the processes of defining a product design with the aid of computers, developing manufacturing plans and instructions for the product, and managing the manufacturing system itself. Their accessible writing style is supplemented by examples throughout and end-of-chapter problems are included to test your knowledge.

Your understanding of CADCAM will be improved by:

· industrial examples, placing the theory in context
· project-style exercises, illustrating each of the steps involved in the development of a finished product
· a new chapter on the emerging challenges in the subject, examining current developments and future directions for CADCAM
· extensive references to books and websites, pointing to more in-depth material where appropriate

The most balanced coverage of Computer Aided Design and Manufacture available, this comprehensive and accessible text is ideal for students of Industrial, Mechanical, Manufacturing and Production Engineering. The mix of theory, practice and analysis makes the book suitable for both analytical and overview courses.

Chris McMahon worked in design and CAD for an engineering consultancy for a number of years before joining the Department of Mechanical Engineering at the University of Bristol, where he leads teaching and research in design. Jimmie Browne is Dean of Engineering and Head of the Computer Integrated Manufacturing Research Unit at the National University of Ireland, Galway.
