Production And Manufacturing Coursebook

Production engineering is a combination of manufacturing technology with management science. A production engineer typically has a wide knowledge of engineering practices and is aware of the management challenges related to production. The goal is to accomplish the production process in the smoothest, most-judicious and most-economic way. Production engineering encompasses the application of castings, joining processes, metal cutting & tool design, metrology, machine tools, machiningsystems, automation, jigs and fixtures, and die and mould design. Manufacturing engineers develop and create physical artifacts, production processes, and technology. It is a very broad area which includes the design and development of products. The manufacturing engineering discipline has very strong overlaps with mechanical engineering, industrial engineering, electrical engineering, electronic engineering, computer science, materials management, and operations management. Manufacturing engineers' success or failure directly impacts the advancement of technology and the spread of innovation. Automation is used in different processes of manufacturing such as machining and welding. This book on this subject deals with definitions and derivations, principles and problems to be studied by the ITI students.
