Book excerpt: A frequently misunderstood technology, die casting is considered the shortest route between raw material and near net shape. For many decades, high pressure die casting was viewed as an art based upon "seat of the pant" strategies. However, many of these crude reactions actually worked because the fundamental process is quite forgiving of eccentricities. Exploring these reactions with scientific logic, Die Casting Engineering presents a broad study of each procedure in the die casting process and clearly outlines its basic science and principles. This guide is written in a reader-friendly and logical format by an experienced authority in quality and productivity enhancement, tooling design, metal feed system analysis, temperature management, and environmental regulation. While its scope is broad and covers the many facets of die casting, the book's main focus is on function, problem identification and solution, and strategic logic. Generously illustrated, it provides a comprehensive explanation of why high pressure die casting is reliable, predictable, and teachable.

Download or read book Design for Manufacturing written by Corrado Poli and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2001-11-29 with total page 409 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Design for Manufacturing assists anyone not familiar with various manufacturing processes in better visualizing and understanding the relationship between part design and the ease or difficulty of producing the part. Decisions made during the early conceptual stages of design have a great effect on subsequent stages. In fact, quite often more than 70% of the manufacturing cost of a product is determined at this conceptual stage, yet manufacturing is not involved. Through this book, designers will gain insight that will allow them to assess the impact of their proposed design on manufacturing difficulty. The vast majority of components found in commercial batch-manufactured products, such as appliances, computers and office automation equipment are either injection molded, stamped, die cast, or (occasionally) forged. This book emphasizes these particular, most commonly implemented processes. In addition to chapters on these processes, the book touches upon material process selection, general guidelines for determining whether several components should be combined into a single component or not, communications, the physical and mechanical properties of materials, tolerances, and inspection and quality control. In developing the DFM methods presented in this book, he has worked with over 30 firms specializing in injection molding, die-casting, forging and stamping. - Implements a philosophy which allows for easier and more economic production of designs - Educates designers about manufacturing - Emphasizes the four major manufacturing processes

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As the only comprehensive text focusing on metal shaping processes, which are still the most widely used processes in the manufacture of products and structures, Metal Shaping Processes carefully presents the fundamentals of metal shaping processes with their relevant applications. The treatment of the subject matter is adequately descriptive for those unfamiliar with the various processes and yet is sufficiently analytical for an introductory academic course in manufacturing. The text, as well as the numerous formulas and illustrations in each chapter, clearly show that shaping processes, as a part of manufacturing engineering, are a complex and interdisciplinary subject. The topics are organized and presented in such a manner that they motivate and challenge students to present technically and economically viable solutions to a wide variety of questions and problems, including product design. It is the perfect textbook for students in mechanical, industrial, and manufacturing engineering programs at both the Associate Degree and Bachelor Degree programs, as well a valuable reference for manufacturing engineers (those who design, execute and maintain the equipment and tools); process engineers (those who plan and engineer the manufacturing steps, equipment, and tooling needed in production); manufacturing managers and supervisors; product design engineers; and maintenance and reliability managers and technicians. Each chapter begins with a brief highlighted outline of the topics to be described. Carefully presents the fundamentals of the particular metal-shaping process with its relevant applications within each chapter, so that the student and teacher can clearly assess the capabilities, limitation, and potentials of the process and its competitive aspects. Features sections on product design considerations, which present guidelines on design for manufacturing in many of the chapters. Offers practical, understandable explanations, even for complex processes. Includes text entries that are coded as in an outline, with these numerical designations carried over the 320 related illustrations for easy cross-referencing. Provides a dual (ISO and USA) unit system. Contains end-of-chapter Review Questions. Includes a chapter on sheet metalworking covering cutting processes; bending process; tubes and pipe bending; deep drawing processes; other sheet metal forming process (stretch forming, spinning, rubber forming, and superplatic forming and diffusion bonding). Provides a useful die classification with 15 illustrations and description; presses for sheet metalworking; and high energy-rate forming processes. A chapter on nontraditional manufacturing process discusses such important processes as mechanical energy processes (ultrasonic machining, water jet cutting); electrochemical machining processes (electrochemical machining, electrochemical grinding); thermal energy processes (electric discharge processes, laser beam machining, electron beam machining); and chemical processes (chemical milling).

Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1919 edition. Excerpt: ... 01-Pins A sufficient part of such inserts must always be left ex posed (extending from the casting) to permit the die t0 properly hold it in place. When the design does not permit this it is sometimes necessary to cut off the insert after the casting is made. The portion of the insert imbedded in the casting, commencing about Tlg" or more from the surface of the casting, should be knurled, flattened, grooved or squeezed to provide a better grip. Provision must always be made in the casting to firmly anchor the insert, having in mind the strength and characteristics of the particular die-cast metal used. ' i When studs are cast into a wall the opposite side of which is to be polished or finished, a better appearance will be presented if the base of_the stud is pointed to prevent its showing through on the surface, as suggested in the illustration Flat Springs Except in aluminum, springs may be inserted without draw' ing the temper. Springs are usually anchored by punching holes in them. In some cases eyelets are punched into the holes of the springs to give a better hold. Springs.003" to.005" thick should not be over %" wide as otherwise the metal in shrinking will "pucker" them. Tllbing Tubing may be used when the design calls for long thin walls which cannot be cast. It is sometimes used for its strength, or to afford a passage for corrosive liquids. It may be bent in any shape and used as an oil passage, following an irregular line through the casting. It is advisable to extend tubing into which cores cannot be fitted beyond the surface of the casting to prevent the tube from being filled with metal. Such tubes must also usually be braced with pins or cores in the die which are withdrawn when the casting...
