Features: This book introduces commonly used and practical graphical and computational methods in mechanical design and manufacturing, which can effectively solve most problems encountered in conventional design. We can also see that some seemingly minor issues, such as springs and sheet metal unfolding, are described in detail. Many material and process parameters listed in the book's tables are of significant reference value. Familiarity with these basic methods and techniques will further enhance our creative design capabilities, as innovative design still relies heavily on a large number of conventional methods and technologies. This book is widely applicable to mechanical designers and manufacturing engineers, as well as technical workers in machining and sheet metal processing. It can also serve as a reference for teachers of technical foundation courses in mechanical disciplines at universities for teaching and design purposes. The book covers fundamental mathematics required for mechanical design and manufacturing, graphical and measurement methods for geometric shapes, the design of common mechanical parts and mechanisms, as well as formulas and computational methods for sheet metal part design and processing. The book is richly illustrated and easy to learn and master. It is suitable for mechanical designers and manufacturing engineers, technical workers in machining and sheet metal processing, and can also serve as a reference book for students and teachers in mechanical disciplines at universities.
