Features: This book consists of five chapters. Chapter 1 is the introduction, providing a comprehensive overview of the definition, characteristics, development history, and composition and system of advanced manufacturing technology, as well as its current status and development trends. Chapter 2 covers modern design technology, introducing computer-aided design (CAD) technology and some modern design methods such as finite element analysis and concurrent design. Chapter 3 focuses on advanced manufacturing process technology, primarily introducing precision forming technology, precision and ultra-precision machining technology, ultra-high-speed machining technology, special processing technology, and micro-machining technology. Chapter 4 discusses manufacturing automation technology, covering its definition, connotation, and development history, with a focus on automated manufacturing equipment, CAD/CAPP/CAM integrated technology, flexible manufacturing systems, computer-integrated manufacturing systems, and intelligent manufacturing systems. Chapter 5 introduces modern production and management technology, covering advanced management methods such as manufacturing resource planning (MRP), enterprise resource planning (ERP), just-in-time (JIT), lean production, and agile manufacturing, as well as modern production models. The book has a well-structured and logical system, with clear and concise explanations, abundant illustrations, and is suitable not only as a teaching material for vocational and technical colleges in mechanical design, manufacturing, and automation, industrial engineering, and mechatronics engineering, but also as a reference book for engineering technicians and self-study materials.
