Fundamentals of Modern Manufacturing: Materials, Processes, and Systems, 6th Edition, is designed for a first course or two-course sequence in Manufacturing at the junior level in Mechanical, Industrial, and Manufacturing Engineering curricula.
As in preceding editions, the author's objective is to provide a treatment of manufacturing that is modern and quantitative. The book's modern approach is based on balanced coverage of the basic engineering materials, the inclusion of recently developed manufacturing processes and comprehensive coverage of electronics manufacturing technologies.
The quantitative focus of the text is displayed in its emphasis on manufacturing science and its greater use of mathematical models and quantitative end-of-chapter problems. Manufacturing systems are characterized by measurable parameters throughput time, cycle time, defect rates, production rates, number of direct laborers, annual production volumes, etc.
Machine tools are characterized by the size of the workpiece that can be processed or the spindle speeds they can be run at. Tools like dies for sheet metal forming are characterized by their size and weight. Inspection devices have measurement resolution limits.
Measurable parameters extend past machine specifications to higher level involving more than one aspect of part production descriptions of the process such as production rates. The manufacturing system is more than the physical elements. Support and control systems, along with the physical elements, are combined in the manufacturing system. The manufacturing engineer is responsible for selecting or designing and overseeing operation of the manufacturing processes. However, the decisions made by part and product designers and materials engineers have large influences on the kind of processes that can be used to make the part.
How the part can be made is constrained by part design and materials used. So, all individuals who make decisions that determine manufacturing process choice should be involved in figuring out how to make the part. In Figure , the lines connecting the processes represent possible paths as material moves through the shop — from machine-to-machine or operation-to-operation.
This is really a discussion question to get the students to be aware of all the things involved in characterizing a process technology. The extrusion process results when the pressure applied to a material exceeds its flow strength. Sufficient energy must be applied to overcome friction, so lubrication is very important. The tooling is generally very expensive.
The process usually produces 10 to 25 surface feet per minute of material. The critical process parameters are temperature and pressure, the material being extruded, lubrication, and extrusion rate.

Black and Ron Kohser have continued this book's long and distinguished tradition of exceedingly clear presentation and highly practical approach to materials and processes, presenting mathematical models and analytical equations only when they enhance the basic understanding of the material. Applied Statistics and Probability for Engineers: Edition 7. Special financing available. The new edition features even more of the highly useful "materials profiles" that give critical design, processing, performance and applications criteria for each material in question. Heat Treatment.
Some metals cannot be extruded very well. The process is constrained by the power available and the size of the billets --i. The process operates reliably but users should always be aware of the high pressures involved in upsetting the materials. Operator skills are not critical and the process is semiautomatic.
The process can do a wide variety of parts with constant cross section, depending only on the die design. It is hard to do hollow extrusions. Extrusion as a process is typically good to a tolerance of about 0. Production planning is deciding what should be done and how it should be done, what machines should be used, in what sequences, to make a part, and how these machines should be tooled, set-up, and operated. Scheduling is deciding when the production should take place, and therefore, when parts and products should be completed and ready for sale.
Without these kinds of critical functions in the production system, the manufacturing system would grind to an inefficient halt. It is almost impossible to fabricate a low-cost item that is poorly designed and do it in an economical way. It must be designed so that it is easy to produce if it is going to be inexpensive i. Thus, this statement is true. The times, temperatures and quenchants used in heat-treating a metal part are often considered to be proprietary. The rolls produce many feet of sheet metal that end up in many cars, so the fixed costs like the rolls are spread out over many sheets feet of metal.
Thus the cost of sheet metal per car may be 50 to dollars before the metal is formed into fenders and door panels. Insurance, health, entertainment, sporting events, transportation, lodging, banking, communications, education, etc. Service industries worry about productivity, quality, and economic output just as much as manufacturing industries. The difference is that the MPS has a manufacturing system embedded in the production system and the manufacturing system produces goods by adding value to materials via processes to create finished products. This manufacturing system always includes a service system to help "deliver" the goods to the customer.
Almost all of the methods developed by engineers to run the manufacturing system apply to the service systems. You are adding value to the cow when you are raising it and feeding it, so it becomes more valuable in the market. You add cost, not value when you ship the cow to the market. Powder manufacture often involves the solidification of minute droplets of liquid material, and hence assumes aspects of casting.
Shapes are produced by compaction or pressing, which has many aspects of forming. Finally, the particles are fused together through the sintering operation, thereby assuming aspects of a joining or assembly process. The selling price is determined by the marketplace and what the customer will pay.
Newly revised for its twelfth edition, DeGarmo's Materials and Processes in Manufacturing, 12th Edition continues to be a market-leading text on manufacturing. Guiding engineering and technology students for over five decades, DeGarmos Materials and Processes in Manufacturing provides a comprehensive.
The best way to improve profit is to reduce manufacturing costs per unit. This can be difficult to do when the price keeps going up.
The manufacturing cost for an assembled product, e. Product lifecycle is composed of startup, rapid growth, maturation, commodity or decline. To use the concepts presented in Figure the type of components and required production rates have to be specified. The lower part of Figure shows that for part variety of 10 and 4 parts per hour production rate there is significant overlap of the system possibilities of 1 flexible manufacturing system, 2 manned and 3 unmanned cells, 4 CNC equipped job shop.
