Sheet Metal Forming Processes and Die Design

Drawing on his more than three decades of experience as an engineer in the field, Bojanovic offers a practical guide to what he says is still the most commonly used manufacturing methodology for mass producing complex, high-precision parts. He looks at such mechanisms as blanking, bending, deep drawing, material economy, the movement of metal during stamping, and tooling design. There are formulas and calculations, but the emphasis is on engineering methods rather than mathematical techniques. Annotation © 2004 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
