Summary

Michele Groover's first issue of Manufacturing Processes builds upon much of the content from his 4th edition, of Fundamentals of Modern Manufacturing. The text incorporates design topics, balance quantitative and qualitative coverage; offers most current information on latest developments in the field; and makes the topic of manufacturing processes exciting with visualizing processes. The text also includes several case studies expanded upon online with related assessment content along with videos with related assessment questions. The text includes "hot topics" pedagogical elements with discussions ranging from lean manufacturing to green engineering to nanotechnology as well as an end chapter containing "putting it all together" systems analysis type exercises.

Author Biography

Mikell P. Groover is Professor of Industrial and Manufacturing Systems Engineering at Lehigh University, where he also serves as Director of the Manufacturing Technology Laboratory. He holds the following degrees all from Lehigh: B.A. (1961) in Arts and Science, B.S. (1962) in Mechanical Engineering, M.S. (1966) and Ph.D. (1969) in Industrial Engineering.
