7TH. ED. MANUFACTURING AND TECHNOLOGY

Manufacturing Engineering and Technology, SI Edition, 7e, presents a mostly qualitative description of the science, technology, and practice of manufacturing. This includes detailed descriptions of manufacturing processes and the manufacturing enterprise that will help introduce students to important concepts.

With a total of 120 examples and case studies, up-to-date and comprehensive coverage of all topics, and superior two-color graphics, this text provides a solid background for manufacturing students and serves as a valuable reference text for professionals.

Teaching and Learning Experience
To provide a better teaching and learning experience, for both instructors and students, this program will:

Apply Theory and/or Research: An excellent overview of manufacturing concepts with a balance of relevant fundamentals and real-world practices.
Engage Students: Examples and industrially relevant case studies demonstrate the importance of the subject, offer a real-world perspective, and keep students interested.
Support Instructors and Students: A Companion Website includes step-by-step Video Solutions, the Pearson eText, and color versions of all figure and tables in the book.
