Machinerys Handbook Book

After more than 85 years of continuous publication, Machinery's Handbook remains unchallenged as "The Bible" in its field, and the new 26th edition remains true to the Handbook's original design as an extraordinarily comprehensive yet practical and easy-to-use reference for mechanical and manufacturing engineers, designers, draftsmen, toolmakers, and machinists. Available in two versions-the toolbox edition and the larger-print edition-this valuable tool has been painstakingly updated and revised to reflect the needs of its users and changes in manufacturing. And just like in previous editions, existing material that is of proven worth is still included in order to provide for the needs of disciplines that are not as quick to develop. Both versions are thumb indexed for easy referencing. UNIQUE FEATURES * 80 pages of new content have been added and the entire text, including all tables and equations, has been reset and numerous figures have been redrawn. * Features significant format changes and major revisions, as well as new material on a variety of topics including: aerodynamic lubrication, high speed machining, grinding speeds and feeds, metalworking fluids, ISO surface texture, pipe welding, geometric dimensioning and tolerancing, gearing, and EDM. * Provides a new and innovative presentation on the econometrics of machining and grinding which is designed to help lower unit manufacturing costs and/or maximize production output in the most cost-effective way. * Contains a larger mathematics section that features new discussions of coordinate systems and interpolations. * The number of contents pages has been increased for many of the larger sections, and the index has been expanded and reorganized to include most of the many standards referenced in the Handbook. * Material on logarithms, trigonometry, and other topics, as well as sine bar tables have been restored.Read More
