Overview
A treatment of on-line monitoring techniques for optimizing various manufacturing processes while also making them safer. The book looks at the latest developments in sensors for quality control or preventing downtime, as well as environmental protection in the form of emission monitoring and waste reduction. Although the text concentrates on practical applications, it also provides readers with the necessary basic principles.
Editorials
From The Critics
Contributors primarily from Germany, Japan, and the US address monitoring technologies in various manufacturing processes, focusing on the latest developments in those fields, along with the principles behind the developments. The volume begins with the role of sensors in manufacturing and application range, new trends in signal processing and decision making, and sensors in mechanical manufacturing. Sensors for machine tools and robots are covered, followed by sensors for workpieces. Sensors for process monitoring are addressed including casting and powder metallurgy, metal forming, cutting and abrasive processes, laser processing, electrical discharge machining, welding, coating processes, heat treatment, and other means. Finally, developments in manufacturing and their influence on sensors are covered. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, ORBook Details
