Publisher's Synopsis
The book Basic Manufacturing Processes Theory and Practice has been designed as a "Rapid Learning Package", written with a view to familiarize the freshmen of technical institutes/colleges with the elementary theory and practice, and the conventional tools and equipment used for the manufacturing of engineering goods. Basic Manufacturing Processes course is the core course common to all the branches of engineering. It is taught at the first year level in one semester of degree and diploma courses of all the Indian Universities/Boards imparting technical education.
The book covers the theoretical and practical aspects of the course in a simple and concise manner. The theory of the basic manufacturing processes and their underlying principleshave been dealt with in a brief but easy way. The common tools and equipment used in various shops of a general purpose workshop have also been discussed. Necessary diagrams have been given to help students understand the concepts better. The book fully covers the syllabus of the first year level course of 'Workshop Practice/Manufacturing Processes' prescribed for the degree and diploma students of engineering. However, the book is not meant for exhaustive study of the subject.
The salient features of the book are presentation of contents in a lucid manner, more than 270 figures to support theory and practice, objectives at the start of each chapter, practice jobs, summary to quickly revise the individual chapters and short answer/viva-Voice Questions.
The book has been written, keeping in mind, even the weakest student in the class. No prerequisite is required to study this course with the help of this book.
