Description
Micromanufacturing Engineering and Technology, Third Edition covers the major themes in micromanufacturing and the latest developments from industry and academia. Theory and manufacturing processes are addressed, as well as a wide range of practical aspects of micro-manufacturing engineering and utilization, such as design, modeling, materials, tools and equipment issues, automation and manufacturing systems. This fully updated edition features new material on micro-machining, Focused-Ion-Beam machining, laser-machining, micro-forming, micro-EDM, micro-ECM, Deep X-Ray Lithography, hot-embossing, micro-injection moulding, micro-sintering, inkjet technology, 3D printing and additive micro-manufacturing, and much more. Edited by one of the few world-experts in this relatively new, but rapidly-expanding area and presenting chapters written by a 50-strong team of leading industry specialists, academics and researchers, this book is an invaluable source of information for engineers, R&D researchers and academics.
- Describes how to implement high-volume micromanufacturing production capabilities to reduce costs
- Includes case studies that help explain key micromanufacturing processes in detail
- Guides manufacturing technology selection decisions by considering social, economic, and environmental implications
