Summary
The selection of suitable manufacturing processes is an essential part of the design process - but it is often seen as secondary to the choice of component form and shape, regularly resulting in late engineering changes, high costs, and compromised quality. Novice design engineers in particular lack the wide experience of different manufacturing processes such as casting, forming, machining, fabrication and joining of materials needed to make an informed, appropriate, and cost-effective manufacturing choice. Building on content from the authors' earlier introductory guide, this handbook fills the knowledge gap with concise descriptions of many different engineering design processes.
