Precision Manufacturing by David A. Dornfeld, Dae-Eun Lee, David Dornfeld is a nonfiction available to read on EtoBox.

What is Precision Manufacturing about?

This book presents a very thorough survey of the field of precision manufacturing. Key concepts in precision machine design as well as precision manufacturing processes are discussed. Understanding the former is critical in fully understanding the latter, and this is one of the few books that talks about both aspects in considerable length. I really liked the way the book began with an overview of the historical development of manufacturing technology and their motivators. It helped in setting context for the discussions that followed, and demonstrated that while the basic drives of precision have remained the same, as better and better precision is needed in products and systems, the techniques of achieving them keep changing. The authors spend a few chapters discussing the various sources of precision (and imprecision) in machine and systems, such as thermal errors, vibrational errors, and structural errors. There is an excellent discussion on error mapping, which talks about how to combine different sources of errors in determining the net error in a mechanical system. These chapters provide good background and context for the subsequent discussion on precision manufacturing p
