Study Notes
Textbook of Production Technology (Manufacturing Processes)
- This textbook is authored by Dr. P.C. Sharma and published by S. Chand & Company Pvt. Ltd.
- It is an eighth revised edition, with minor additions, and improvements to the previous editions.
- The book covers various manufacturing processes and engineering materials, including heat treatment.
- The book is intended for engineering students (Mechanical, Production, Industrial, and Aeronautical), as well as those preparing for professional and competitive examinations (e.g., AMIE, Engineering Services, GATE).
- The author is grateful to S. Chand & Company Pvt. Ltd. for publishing the book.
- The book's content includes introduction to manufacturing processes, classification of processes, selection of processes, engineering materials and heat treatment (including general material property definitions, the Iron-Carbon phase diagram, heat treatment definitions, ferrous and non-ferrous metals), casting process (e.g., sand-mould casting, patterns, moulding materials, gates and risers, sand casting defects, miscellaneous casting processes), mechanical working of metals (e.g., rolling, forging, extrusion, pipe and tube manufacturing, sheet metal working), welding process (including resistance welding, miscellaneous welding processes, weldability, inspection of welded joints), machining process (including the mechanics of chip formation, single point cutting tool, methods of machining, types of chips, thermal aspects of chip formation, tool wear & tool life, machinability), numerically controlled machine tools (e.g., classification, working of NC machine tools, programming, applications, advatages/disadvantages), and surface finishing processes (e.g., diamond turning, grinding, lapping, honing, buffing, powder coating, polishing, barrel tumbling, barrel rolling).
- Further, the book includes unconventional manufacturing methods (e.g., electrical discharge machining, electrochemical machining, electrolytic grinding, chemical milling, ultrasonic machining, high energy rate forming, and others).
- The book also includes a section on powder metallurgy (including introduction, advantages and limitations of powder metallurgy, manufacture of metal powders, mixing & blending, compacting, sintering, secondary operations, recent trends, properties, applications, and design).
- Lastly, the book covers processing of plastics (including general information, polymers, polymerization, additions to polymers, thermoplastic & thermosetting plastics, processing methods, casting, machining, welding, design of plastic parts, mould design) and ceramic materials and their properties.
