Classic textbook introducing key concepts in manufacturing with a focus on practical applications, updated to include the latest industry developments.
For over 65 years, DeGarmo’s Materials and Processes in Manufacturing has comprehensively presented both traditional and new manufacturing materials, processes, and systems in a descriptive, non-mathematical manner. Students are first introduced to a range of engineering materials, including metals, plastics and polymers, ceramics, and composites. The processes used to convert this “stuff” into “things” are then described, along with their typical applications, capabilities, and limitations. Segments cover casting, forming, machining, welding and joining, and additive manufacturing. Supporting chapters present concepts relating to material selection, heat treatment, surface finishing, measurement, inspection, and manufacturing systems.
The Fourteenth Edition has been updated to reflect the most current technologies. Coverage of additive manufacturing (3D printing) has been significantly expanded, along with updates on new and advanced materials. Case studies are featured throughout the book and review problems have been placed at the end of each chapter. A full collection of online bonus material is provided for both students and instructors.
DeGarmo’s Materials and Processes in Manufacturing, Fourteenth Edition includes information on:
- Equilibrium phase diagrams and the iron-carbon system, heat treatment, and process capability and quality control
- Expendable-mold and multiple-use-mold casting processes, powder metallurgy (particulate processing), fundamentals of metal forming, and bulk-forming and sheet-forming processes
- Cutting tool materials, turning and boring processes, milling, drilling and related hole-making processes, and CNC processes and adaptive control in the A(4) and A(5) levels of automation
- Sawing, broaching, shaping, and filing machining processes, thread and gear manufacturing, and surface integrity and finishing processes
DeGarmo’s Materials and Processes in Manufacturing has long set the standard for introducing students to the materials and processes in product manufacturing, and has been incorporated in programs of manufacturing, mechanical, industrial, metallurgical, and materials engineering, as well as various technology degrees. Its descriptive nature provides an excellent first exposure to its various subjects, which may then be followed by advanced courses in specific areas.
