| Basic Manufacturing Processes Introduction |
| Manufacturing and workshop practices have become important in the industrial environment to produce products for the service of mankind. The knowledge of manufacturing practices is highly essential for all engineers and technocrats for familiarizing themselves with modern concepts of manufacturing technologies. |
|
| Design for Welding in Mechanical Engineering |
| The development of the fabrication of welded structures into an efficient manufacturing method is largely due to the considerable research work which is been carried out in this field. One of the main tools of the designer, however, is experience, and this can only be gained in the practical application of the results of scientific work. |

| Design for Producibility |
| For the purposes of this handbook, producibility is defined as the combined effect of those elements or characteristics of a design and the production planning for it that enables the item, described by the design, to be produced and inspected in the quantity required and that permits a series of trade-offs to achieve the optimum of the least possible cost and the minimum time, while still meeting the necessary quality and performance requirements. |

| Optimal Level of Automation in the Automotive Industry |
| Strong competition on the global automotive market is forcing car manufacturers rethink their strategic approach to manufacturing. In order to be competitive, companies need to manufacture variety of new car models at the lowest cost. |
|
| Processes and Design for Manufacturing |
| Before learning about various manufacturing processes and the concept of design for manufacturing, we first must become familiar with some technical terms that are used frequently during the planning for and operation of industrial manufacturing plants. |

| Design for Brazing Book |
| Brazing is the joining of metals through the use of heat and a filler metal – one whose melting temperature is above 840°F (450°C) but below the melting point of the metals being joined. (A more exact name for the brazing process discussed in this book may be "silver brazing," since in most cases the filler metal used is a silver alloy. |
|
| Design for 3D Metal Sintering Printing |
| Direct metal laser sintering (DMLS) process is Sometimes referred to as metal 3d printing or a metal 3d printer, DMLS uses a laser beam to melt 20-40 micron layers of metal powder on top of each other to create metal parts. |
