Machining Principles for Shape Generation of Metals

Machining Principles for Shape Generation of Metals provides coverage of the fundamentals of machining technology and metal cutting before thoroughly explaining the Laplace transformation and how it can be applied to understand complex machining processes. The book provides an overview of all machining processes with an emphasis on machining with geometrically determinate cutting to produce superior components. Vibration control, turning, dynamics, thermal deformation, and numerical control principles of metal cutting are each discussed, as are the principles of cutting removal, forced vibration, and the physical properties of work and tool materials.

• Provides solutions to commonly encountered problems when shaping metals
• Emphasizes application of the Laplace transformation and closed loop diagram
• Covers creation principles for planes, pseudo-cylinders, and pseudo-circular holes
