The Springer Reference Work Handbook of Manufacturing Engineering and Technology provides overviews and in-depth and authoritative analyses on the basic and cutting-edge manufacturing technologies and sciences across a broad spectrum of areas. These topics are commonly encountered in industries as well as in academia. Manufacturing engineering curricula across universities are now essential topics covered in major universities worldwide.

Innovation and manufacturing capabilities are well known to be the wealth creator
of any nation which has strong advanced manufacturing technologies for making
high-value-added products and is able to compete globally.
Manufacturing is evolving continuously, engulfing more technologies than
several decades ago. The rapid development of Internet technology, computer
science, materials research, microelectronics, and biosciences has propelled
manufacturing activities far beyond mere product fabrication. Manufacturing
technology has now entered into the realm of intelligent product creation, and yet
at affordable prices, and is highly compatible with environmental concerns.
Manufacturing knowledge has been created by both the academia and industry,
but unfortunately a great deal of information is scattered over a myriad of published
papers, reports, and books – some are publicly available, while others remain
proprietary information and are well guarded by the organizations which
created them.
The raison d’eˆtre of the Handbook of Manufacturing Engineering and Technology
is to gather the fundamental and evolving technologies in manufacturing engineering
from many experts and practitioners in an attempt to cover as many fields as
possible in common manufacturing activities. The collated materials will be updated
frequently to capture the latest developments. The six volumes of the handbook cover
the following topics:
Volume 1 – Forming and Joining
• Materials Forming: Forming of Polymer and Composite Materials
• Metal Forming
• Materials Joining
Volume 2 – Machining and Tolerancing Systems
• Machining
• Tolerancing Systems
Volume 3 – Nanomanufacturing and Non-traditional Machining
• Nanomanufacturing Using Ion Beam Technology
• Non-traditional Machining Processes
Volume 4 – Robotics and Automation
Volume 5 – Additive Manufacturing and Surface Technology
• Additive Manufacturing: Rapid Prototyping, Tooling, and Manufacturing
• Surface Technology
Volume 6 – Product Life Cycle and Manufacturing Simulation
• Product Life Cycle and Green Manufacturing
• Manufacturing Simulation and Optimization
It is hoped that these volumes provide useful assistance for both academia and
industry with regard to the needed reference and basic knowledge of each process.
What is more important is that the knowledge will be updated continuously to keep
abreast with the state-of-the-art developments in the world of manufacturing
research and practice.
