This new volume discusses -- in business and engineering terms -- the reinvention of the product development process. It addresses the tough questions about time-to-market and time-to-money in light of recent advances, such as those in predictive engineering software capabilities and in workstations that bring the power of supercomputers to an engineer's desk. Examining current technology and its implications for your future success or failure, Howard C. Crabb demonstrates how your company can integrate advances into your existing systems and organization. Dr. Crabb is president and CEO of Interactive Computer Engineering. He had over 30 years of experience at Ford Motor Company, where he pioneered the concept of visual engineering -- the representation of CAD data as realistic images.

Addresses important topics of DFM, including how it relates to Concurrent Engineering, management issues, getting started in DFM, how to justify using DFM, applying quality tools and how DFM is affecting computer technology (and vice versa). Covers topics starting with the creative thinking process to combining DFM with geometrical dimensioning and tolerancing. Also includes product design information that designers should know when committing pen to paper or mouse to pad.

You've heard the buzz about how TPM can minimize machine downtime while it maximizes productivity. Now you can discover exactly how to integrate a TPM program into your workshop to make its implementation a bottom-line success! This book explains the subtle but distinct difference between TPM as an equipment management strategy and not a maintenance management program. Being able to distinguish between these two mindsets can help your TPM program yield dramatic results. One reading of this practical new reference, can help you make the old saying 'good maintenance is good business' a reality.

Since its first version in 1962, Fundamentals of Tool Design has been an outstanding source of information for tool designers. From classrooms to the design shops of major corporations around the work, this proven resource has demonstrated its value. Written by tool designers for tool designers, this real-world book presents useful information on presses and dies, geometric dimensioning and tolerancing, modular tooling, automated tool handling, and using the computer for tool design.

The creation of a Fifth Edition is proof of the continuing vitality of the book's contents, including: tool design and materials; jigs and fixtures; workholding principles; die manipulation; inspection, gaging, and tolerances; computer hardware and software and their applications; joining processes, and pressworking tool design. To stay abreast of the newer developments in design and manufacturing, every effort has been made to include those technologies that are currently finding applications in tool engineering. For example, sections on rapid prototyping, hydroforming, and simulation have been added or enhanced. The basic principles and methods discussed in Fundamentals of Tool Design can be used by both students and professionals for designing efficient tools.
