Description:
"Since 1998, Industrial Design: Materials and Manufacturing Guide has provided the detailed coverage of materials and manufacturing processes that industrial designers need, without the in-depth and overly technical discussions commonly directed toward engineers. Now author Jim Lesko updates this key text to include recent advances in manufacturing processes and new materials that are available, as well as such developments and updates on desktop rapid prototyping and rapid tooling." "In this Second Edition, you'll find everything from basic terminology to valuable insights on why certain shapes work best for particular applications. You'll learn how to extract the best performance from all of the most commonly used methods and materials, and gain the practical knowledge you need to develop a real-world understanding of materials and processes and make informed choices for industrial design projects."--Jacket.
