Secrets of 5-axis Machining
Author: Karlo Apro
Publisher: Industrial Press Inc.
ISBN: 9780831133757
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 188
Book Description
"This book explains 5-axis machining in simple terms most people in the field will appreciate and quickly understand. The colorful graphics are nothing short of amazing and generously sprinkled throughout the book with incredible detail. Dozens of machining applications are illustrated and explained while taking much of the fear out of driving these complex machine tools. Anyone associated with 5-axis machine tools has much to gain by reading this book." Mark Summers, President CNC Software Inc. ..". this great book will allow operators, NC programmers and anybody interested in multiaxis machining to learn and understand the reality of 5-axis machining. The crystal clear wording and perfect overview make this book easy to read and simple to understand for everyone, from beginner to expert." Yavuz Murtezaoglu, Managing Director ModuleWorks GmbH Up to now, the best way to get information on 5-axis machining has been by talking to experienced peers in the industry, in hopes that they will share what they learned. Visiting industrial tradeshows and talking to machine tool and Cad/Cam vendors is another option, only these people will all give you their point of view and will undoubtedly promote their machine or solution. This unbiased, no-nonsense, to-the-point description of 5-axis machining presents information that was gathered during the author's 30 years of hands-on experience in the manufacturing industry, bridging countries and continents, multiple languages - both human and G-Code. As the only book of its kind, Secrets of 5-Axis Machining will demystify the subject and bring it within the reach of anyone who is interested in using this technology to its full potential, and is not specific to one particular CAD/CAM system. It is sure to empower readers to confidently enter this field, and by doing so, become better equipped to compete in the global market. Features full-color illustrations through that help to explain the theories and principals. Includes a CD containing avi files, high quality illustrations, and sample parts.

The CNC Handbook
Author: Hans Bernhard Kief
Publisher: Industrial Press
ISBN: 9780831136369
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
Introducing computers into production engineering has drastically reduced the "artisan skill" content traditionally required in manufacturing processes and replaced it with high-precision, computer-controlled machinery. While this reduces human error and variability in output, it does not eliminate the knowledge required of the professional engineering or shop floor worker. On the contrary, the reverse is true. Managers, engineers, and workers still need to understand the fundamentals while they need to acquire other skills. These highly-regarded authors combine more than 150 years of industrial and academic experience and expertise to provide readers with the fundamentals of the subject, from digital manufacturing with CNC machine tools and FMS up to Industry 4.0, emphasizing the increased importance of automated manufacturing based on computerized systems (CAD, CAM, CAQ, etc.). Features This groundbreaking work introduces readers to CNC fundamentals, followed by a number of chapters which explain how different components are applied in practice. This logical approach is extended to the study of CNC and drives, tooling, flexible manufacturing systems (FMS), and finally to NC-programming, DNC, digital manufacturing, Industry 4.0 and computer integrated manufacturing (CIM). Additional chapters cover industrial robots, additive manufacturing, energy-efficient manufacturing, simulation systems, state of the art of machine integrated measuring systems, and using touch probes and laser beams. Explains the functions and connections of all integrated components.
