Description
Tata Mcgraw Hill Education Private Limited Machine Tool Design by MEHTA
Machine tools are devices that are used to shape metals and other material. These tools are used for grinding, drilling, boring, cutting and other processes that are used to shape metals. Numerical control involves using control devices that can automate the operations of the machine tools in industrial environments. These machines can be manual or completely automated. Over the last few decades, the trend has been towards the use of Computer Numerical Control (CNC) devices that are fully automated control machines. Machine Tool Design And Numerical Control covers the subject of designing machine tools and controlling them through different kinds of numerical controllers. The material in this book is divided into nine chapters. The book begins with an Introduction to Machine Tool Drives and Mechanisms. This chapter covers the general principles of machine tool design. The second chapter covers the Regulation of Speed and Feed rates in machine tools. It explains feed boxes, gear box design and kinematics of machine tools.
