Description


Applied Metrology for Manufacturing Engineering takes a different approach from traditional works in this field due to its inclusion of educational features in the text.

It is richly illustrated with tutorials and laboratory models, and is therefore highly accessible to all readers, users, and other non-specialists in the fields of design and manufacturing. Chapters can also be read and understood completely independently of each other.

The book focuses on technical, geometric, and dimensional tolerances as well as mechanical testing and quality control. It also provides references and solved examples to help professionals and teachers to adapt their more general approaches or models to specific real-world or teaching cases.

The contents reflect recent developments in ISO and GPS standards and focus on training that goes hand in hand with practical work dealing with measurement and dimensioning.
