Summary

This timely book covers the core subject areas essential toward building a basic foundation required to effectively work in the machining area of today's manufacturing technology. Each section begins with an introductory overview, followed by easy-to-read instructional units designed around specific projects that accurately reflect the state of the art in industrial machine shop environments. The book also includes an introduction to all common manual machine tool operations, with an introduction to computer numerical control operations. For budding computer numerical control (CNC) and conventional machine operators, general machinists or tool and die makers.
