Metal Forming Practise: Processes - Machines - Tools

By Heinz Tschaetsch and Heinz Tschätsch

Economical and flexible, advanced metal-forming processes are at the core of modern industrial production. This professional sourcebook presents the most important metal-working and shearing processes - and their related machines and tooling - in a concise form supplemented by ample illustrations, tables and flow charts. Practical examples show how to calculate the forces and strain energy of the processes and the specific parameters of the machines, while exercises enable readers to gauge and improve their understanding. Because today's production units are automated as much as possible using modern Computer Numerical Control engineering to reduce time and costs, the book covers flexible manufacturing systems in metal forming and the handling systems required for automation. Carefully translated from the eighth revised German-language edition, Metal Forming Practise offers a uniquely valuable learning reference tool for students, engineers and technicians.
