Description
For introductory Blueprint Reading courses geared to students in the manufacturing trades, such as Machine Operators, General Machinists, and Tool and Die Machinists.
Being able to read and correctly interpret a blueprint is a necessary skill in the industrial world today. Designed in a workbook format, this manual begins with the basics of blueprint reading and progresses to visualization and then to multi-view drawings. Assuming no prior knowledge of the subject, it includes charts, tables, a glossary of terms, and a mathematics appendix to help students comprehend material. This edition features expanded coverage of GDT, more information on profile tolerances and drawings produced in CAD. Designed for those in a manufacturing trade, this is a straightforward resource that helps prepare students to enter the industrial field of work.
