Fundamentals of modern manufacturing : materials, processes, and systems / Mikell P. Groover. - 3rd ed. - Hoboken, N.J. : Chichester : Wiley ; John Wiley [distributor], 2006. - 1024 p.

Previous ed.: 2002. Accompanying DVD based on the Society of Manufacturing Engineers\' Fundamental Manufacturing Processes video series. The DVD contains brief video clips that promote visualization of key manufacturing processes. Chapters in the text include references to the videos, and several new end-of-chapter questions relate to the videos. Text inside front cover.

Part I.Material properties and product attributes -- Part II.Engineering materials --Part III.Solidifcation process -- Part IV.Particulate processing of metals and ceramics -- Part V.Metal forming and sheet metalworking -- Part VI.Material removal processes -- Part VIII.Property enhancing and surface processing operations -- Part VIII.Joining and assembly processes -- Part IX.Special processing and assembly technologies -- Part X.Manufacturing systems -- Part XI.Manufacturing support systems.

Taking an all-inclusive look at manufacturing processes, the author also provides substantial coverage of engineering materials and production systems. This book follows a more quantitative and design-oriented approach than other texts on the subject.
