Machinery's Handbook

Product Information

Numerous sections were thoroughly refreshed, reworked, or renovated. The metric content continued to be expanded. Our editors fine-tuned navigation aids to make it easier to locate information. And many figures were been refined and redrawn for enhanced clarity. Wherever practical, metric units were added adjacent to the US customary units in the text; many formulas were presented with equivalent metric expres­sions, and metric examples added.

During the decades from World War I to World War II, these phrases could refer to either of two competing reference books: McGraw-Hill's American Machinists' Handbook or Industrial Press's Machinery's Handbook. The former book ceased publication after the 8th edition (1945). (One short-lived spin-off appeared in 1955.) The latter book, Machinery's Handbook, is still regularly revised and updated, and it continues to be a "bible of the metalworking industries" today. The 30th edition also included additional content on: sheet metal and presses; keys and keyways; shaft alignment; taps and tapping; helical coil screw thread inserts; metric screw threads; miniature screws; fluid mechanics; solid geometry; statistics; calculating hole coordinates and thread dimensions; and distinguishing between bolts and screws Machinery’s Handbook for machine shop and drafting-room; a reference book on machine design and shop practice for the mechanical engineer, draftsman, toolmaker, and machinist. urn:oclc:record:802251511 Foldoutcount 0 Identifier machineryshandbo0000unse_f4b1_29edition Identifier-ark ark:/13960/s21b4w8z3h2 Invoice 1652 Isbn 9781613448595

Maybe my interest is due to working with engineers for so long; I grew to admire their intelligence and the way they were able to apply it in so many different situations. With some of them, the knowledge was acquired through years of schooling and experience. But for a few, the ability to problem-solve their way through a tough spot seemed instinctual. And while I was able to simplify their instructions so the user of a machine one of them designed was able to actually operate it, I nevertheless stood in awe of the abilities engineers and machinists possessed.Access-restricted-item true Addeddate 2022-11-03 09:01:12 Associated-names Oberg, Erik, 1881-1951; McCauley, Christopher J Autocrop_version 0.0.14_books-20220331-0.2 Bookplateleaf 0004 Boxid IA40750902 Camera Sony Alpha-A6300 (Control) Collection_set printdisabled External-identifier Machinery's Handbook 31st Edition, 2020 "Production of Metallic Powder", Machinery's Handbook 31st Edition, 2020 Machinery's Handbook is apparently [ weaselwords] the direct inspiration for similar works in other countries, such as Sweden's Karlebo handbok (1st ed. 1936). Reading through the book that came with your machine tool while the cycle is running is a great way to understand the features that set your machine apart from machines that you may have operated and programmed in the past. The first edition was written in 1917 and over 100 years later, it is still the best reference book available.
