Manufacturing Science

This book introduces the student to the principles and practices of manufacturing processes used in the engineering industry. It follows the practical approach with an emphasis on production processes, machinery, technology and management of manufacturing processes. The text discusses metal forming sheet, metal working processes, wire strip drawing, extrusion and its applications, rolling force, power in rolling, design for metal forming processes and defects in forming. Analysis of forming process is done through examples.
The book is intended for the undergraduate students of mechanical engineering, production engineering and industrial engineering.
