Overview
Retaining its unique and much praised organization, this leading text has been revised to reflect the most recent developments in design tools. It provides students, apprentices, and on-the-job professionals with a detailed and clear presentation of the underlying principles of design, and explains and illustrates how these basic engineering principles can be readily adapted to a virtually limitless variety of designs. Each of the 14 steps in the authors' procedure for designing a die is illustrated both in pictorial view and as a portion of an engineering drawing. All essential mathematics is carefully introduced and explained as needed.
FEATURES
Introduces recent developments in die design tools such as hydraulic presses.
Covers materials, punches, die sets, stops, strippers, gages, pilots and presses.
Divides the design of each die into a series of distinct, easy to follow steps.
Illustrates each step in pictorial view and as a portion of an engineering drawing.
Introduces the elements of mathematics used in the design of die components.
"...topics include presses & accessories, how to lay out a scrap strip, designing die blocks, blanking punches, piercing punches & punch plates, and also how to apply fasteners & select die sets."
