Fundamentals of Modern Manufacturing (5th Edition)

Fundamentals of Modern Manufacturing: Materials, Processes, and Systems (Fifth Edition) By Mikell P. Groover

Engineers rely on this text for its quantitative, engineering-oriented approach, providing more equations and numerical problem exercises than most competing manufacturing texts. Designed for a first course or two-course sequence in manufacturing at the junior level in mechanical, industrial, and manufacturing engineering curricula, it offers balanced coverage of the three basic engineering materials — metals, ceramics, and polymers — alongside composites, as well as recently developed manufacturing processes and electronics manufacturing technologies. Throughout, the emphasis stays on manufacturing science and quantitative analysis, helping students understand the relationships between material properties and the process variables at play in any given manufacturing operation. The fifth edition introduces more modern topics, including new materials, processes, and systems, with end-of-chapter problems thoroughly revised and numerous figures enhanced for clarity.

Topics commonly covered include:

• Material properties and product attributes

• Engineering materials (metals, ceramics, polymers, composites)

• Solidification processes

• Particulate processing of metals and ceramics

• Metal forming and sheet metalworking

• Material removal processes (machining)

• Property-enhancing and surface processing operations

• Joining and assembly processes

• Manufacturing systems and manufacturing support systems

Key features:

• Roughly 65% of the text devoted to manufacturing processes, with substantial coverage of engineering materials and production systems as well

• Strongly quantitative approach with abundant equations and numerical problems

• New and updated material on modern manufacturing topics for the fifth edition

• Enhanced artwork and figures throughout

• Suitable for Materials Science and Engineering courses emphasizing materials processing, in addition to core manufacturing curricula

Perfect for:

• Mechanical, industrial, and manufacturing engineering undergraduates

• Materials science and engineering students focused on processing

• Students needing a quantitative, equation-driven approach to manufacturing

• Faculty teaching introductory or two-course manufacturing sequences
