This open access book offers a guide to the core principles and practices of manufacturing engineering. It covers the design of, together with technological and measurement issues for, technical systems. Locating charts and setup schemes describing different machining processes are included. Concepts of product quality, with a focus on accuracy indicators, machining accuracy, roughness, and the impact of surface quality on exploitation properties, are also explained. Furthermore, key machining methods, including turning, milling, hole machining, grinding, and gear machining, are analyzed in depth, covering their principles, applications, and techniques. The book is enhanced by QR codes, which link to a mobile application providing additional information about the content, offering an interactive and extended learning experience. It also uses illustrations visualized with digital tools to promote a better understanding of the concepts. Overall, this book provides students, educators, and practitioners in manufacturing engineering with a comprehensive, accessible, and interactive resource.

The full textbook can be downloaded for free.

ManuVis mobile application is open access and available for both Android OS and iOS.
