    Manufacturing Processes and Materials, Fifth Edition Since publication of the first edition in 1961, instructors, students, and practitioners have relied on Manufacturing Processes and Materials for the foundational knowledge needed to perform in manufacturing roles across a myriad of industries. Now in its fifth edition, the book covers the basic processes, materials, and machinery used in the job shop, tool room, or small manufacturing facility. At the same time, it describes advanced equipment used in larger production environments. The reader is given a thorough review of metals, composites, plastics, and other engineering materials, including their physical properties, testing, treatment, and suitability for use in manufacturing. Quality, measurement and gaging, process planning and cost analysis, and manufacturing systems are all addressed. Questions and problems at the end of each chapter can be used as a self-test or as assignments in the classroom.

    Lean Epiphanies: Catapult the Cow and Other Inspirational Continuous Improvement Stories It should not be surprising that the application of world-class manufacturing techniques is even more critical to company survival than it was a decade ago. In Lean Epiphanies, Gary Conner relates inspirational stories of the places he has been, the companies he has worked with, and the people he has met over the course of the last 20 years. Conners experience conducting hundreds of continuous improvement events, involving thousands of team members, led to his writing this fun, easy-to-read collection of short stories.

    Readers will find the conversational style refreshing and the insights transformative and encouraging in their own continuous improvement efforts. Each story relates an Aha! moment that teaches something new. Lean newcomers and seasoned practitioners alike will learn through Conners compelling insights into human nature, company culture, leadership, and what it takes for business success in the changing dynamics of the new world economy.

    Foundations of Manufacturing This video series is designed to reinforce foundational concepts essential to understanding the broader scope of manufacturing. Ideally suited for corporate training, colleges, universities, and other education providers, these programs will bring to life preparatory material in a clear, concise, and easy to follow format. The first in the series is the three-program, Basic Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing, which includes the programs below. Product ID: PK15PUB4

    Rules and Concepts Geometric dimensioning and tolerancing (GD&T) is an engineering language that uses symbols and modifiers to clearly communicate design requirements on mechanical drawings. By using GD&T, a print can explicitly call out necessary tolerances in an unambiguous fashion. Using shop floor footage and animations to illustrate examples, this program introduces the viewer to GD&T rules and concepts. The 14 symbols used in GD&T are highlighted with examples to define their use. These symbols are organized into five categories: form symbols, profile symbols, orientation symbols, location symbols, and runout symbols. Product ID: DV15PUB1

    Form Controls & Datums Datums are reference measurement surfaces, planes, or points from which other part features are measured. By using the 14 geometric characteristic symbols, along with datum references, the functional requirements of a part or assembly can be effectively communicated. This program focuses solely on the form symbols: straightness, flatness, circularity, and cylindricity. The proper identification and usage of datums in GD&T is explored. Product ID: DV15PUB2

    Future Relationship In this program, the ten remaining geometric characteristic symbols and their categories (profile symbols, orientation symbols, location symbols, and runout symbols) are examined in greater detail using demonstrative examples to clarify their use. Product ID: DV15PUB3
