Excerpt from Tool Engineering

The aim and purpose Of this book is to furnish information with respect to the science Of tool engineering. Nothing has previously been published on the subject except in short articles dealing with specific examples Of jigs and fixtures. Information of value regarding principles of design in connection with produc tion tools is sadly lacking and mechanical literature contains only spasmodic efforts to remedy the deficiency. In order to cover the subject properly three volumes were planned, each Of these being complete in itself. This volume, which is the first, deals with the design of jigs and fixtures. It covers the important points connected with the design, shows the reasons why certain methods are better than others, takes up principles and their application to design and gives many graphic examples which illustrate the use Of the principles involved. An endeavor has been made to simplify the subject matter as far as possible and to treat it in a practical common sense manner which can be easily understood by the designer. A careful study Of the illustrations and descriptive matter will enable a progressive man to understand both the theory and practice necessary for this line of work. The second volume takes up turret lathe and vertical boring mill tooling together with grinding fixtures. The third volume deals with punches, dies and gages. For a number Of years the machines and tools used for pro duction have been undergoing a process Of evolution and although the development work has progressed rapidly, much still remains to be done. Present manufacturing methods are Of the highest order and tooling for high production is Of interest to all the mechanical fraternity. There are however, comparatively few men in this country who really know the science in all its funda mentals and for this reason the tooling in many factories is probably not over 50% efficient.
