Download or read book Furniture Manufacturing in the New Millennium written by Ken Susnjara and published by . This book was released on 1998 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Industrial additive manufacturing is currently being used successfully every day to produce some of the largest composite parts ever made. These include large aerospace molds and tools, foundry patterns for various industries, chassis for electric busses and what is likely the tallest 3D printed structure ever made. Although the process results in substantial savings and dramatically reduces lead time, much of industry today still doesn't understand it.In this book, the author, who was instrumental in developing the technology actually being used in industry today, explains in everyday language what it is, how it works, what actually works, and what doesn't. He provides a guide for non-technical managers to help them understand the basics so they can evaluate how this new technology might impact their company.He explores all aspects of this process in clear, easy to understand language including the print process, polymers, software, trimming, cost savings, time savings, computer simulation and the practical, real world, aspects of getting into large scale additive. He includes sometimes humorous vignettes about surprises, missteps and stumbles during initial technology development and how they were handled.If you are a manager in an industrial company who might benefit from large scale additive technology, or, if your company is actively exploring this area, this book will give you the background you need to participate and make better decisions. It will also help you cut through confusion and crosstalk that often accompanies a new technology like this.

Download or read book Robin and Lucienne Day written by Lesley Jackson and published by Princeton Architectural Press. This book was released on 2001-03 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hailed as the British counterparts to Charles and Ray Eames, Robin and Lucienne Day electrified the British design scene in the 1950s with their startling furniture and textile designs. Indeed, their influence over the next five decades has been so profound that their early products were recently reintroduced by Conran's Habitat. Lucienne Day pioneered the introduction of modern abstract pattern design in the textile industry. Her fabrics, which oscillate between bold geometric figures and more subtle abstract patterns, were produced by companies as diverse as Heal's and Liberty of London. Robin Day's influential furniture designs pioneered the use of materials such as plywood, steel, and plastic. His stacking polypropylene chair (right) is one of the best-selling chairs in the world. Robin and Lucienne Day, the first-ever full-length monograph on their designs, features never-before-seen archival material along with over 250 color images of the full range of their work, including furniture, ceramics, textiles, wallpaper, interiors, appliances, exhibit designs, and graphics. Spanning a half-century's creative output, no designer will fail to be awed by the genius seen in this book.

Download or read book Doing Christian Ethics from the Margins written by Miguel A. De La Torre and published by Orbis Books. This book was released on 2014-04-30 with total page 579 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Miguel De La Torre opens up Christian ethics to the rich diversity found among those who are often excluded from academic and Eurocentric ethical considerations. This book seeks to help students realize that because the gospel message itself was proclaimed to the marginalized peoples of Judea, the people who occupy the same disenfranchised spaces in our contemporary cultures are the ones who hold the interpretive key to understanding that gospel message. The binding effects of power and privilege (institutional or not) can be overcome by a justice-based ethics that avails itself of the perspectives and experiences of those on the margins. -- Provided by publisher.
