More and more companies manufacture reinforced composite products. To meet the market need, researchers and industries are developing manufacturing methods without a reference that thoroughly covers the manufacturing guidelines. Composites Manufacturing: Materials, Product, and Process Engineering fills this void. The author presents a fundamental classification of processes, helping you understand where a process fits within the overall scheme and which process is best suited for a particular component. You will understand:oTypes of raw materials available for the fabrication of composite productsoMethods of selecting right material for an applicationoSix important phases of a product development processoDesign for manufacturing (DFM) approach for integrating benefits and capabilities of the manufacturing process into design of the product so that the best product can be produced in a shortest possible time and with limited resourcesoDetailed description of composites manufacturing processes with some case studies on actual part making such as boat hulls, bathtubs, fishing rods and moreoProcess models and process selection criteriaoDesign and manufacturing guidelines for making cost-competitive composite productsoProcedures for writing manufacturing instructions and bill of materials oJoining and machining techniques for composite materialsoCost-estimating techniques and methods of comparing technologies/manufacturing processes based on cost oRecycling approach to deal with post-market composite products To stay ahead in this quickly changing field, you need information you can trust. You need Composites Manufacturing: Materials, Product, and Process Engineering.
