Learning how to design mechanisms with small mechanical drivecomponents has become easier with a new 784 page technical data bookpublished by Stock Drive Products, New Hyde Park, New York. The Book features a 51 page section on robotic component design which includes a detailed specification guide that compares 42 performance features for 147 industrial and teaching class robots.The book, entitled "Design and Application of Small Standardized Components, Data Book 757 Volume 2" took three years to prepare and is considered comprehensive enough to be used as a textbook in machine design and related courses at the vocational-technical and higher educational levels. At a surprisingly low list price of under $8.00, the list of textbook adoption by colleges continues to grow. According to Bill Malone, Coordinator of Engineering Technology at Murray State College in Oklahoma the Data Book is "the most comprehensive text for mechanism design available anyhwhere".This comprehensive technical guide was written and compiled by an editorial board comprising: Frank Buchsbaum, D.Eng.Sc., President of Stock Drive Products; Ferdinand Freudenstein, Professor of Mechanical Engineering, Columbia University; and Peter J. Thornton, P.E. Engineering Consultant.Major sections in the book concern design procedure, selection and application data for designing with small gears, belt and chain drives, speed reducers, gear trains, ac motors, miniature dc motors, stepper motors, constant force springs, couplings, universal joints, shafts, bearings and vibration mounts. Highlighted in the text is a Designers Data Section which includes over 50 useful tables in the following classifications: mathematical formulas; conversion and units; properties of materials; useful shop data; and fasteners. Under Shop Data, for instance, related subjects such as the proper dimensions of shafting, bore diameters and hub fasteners are covered. Yet another section on Practical Design Hints illustrates how to design parts ! and minimize tooling costs, machining and assembly time. Areas covered include: turning and boring: drilling, milling, broaching, grinding and tapping. The Vibration an Shock Isolation Section includes a series of 21 practical design problems and their solutions.The Data Book was written as a non-commercial design reference and is the second of a three part series.
