| Resumen, etc. |
Beyond the design stage, one of the most complex problems faced by the engineer is the development and coordination of plans for manufacturing products. Using essentially the only information available to him, the part print, he must create and follow through a properly sequenced series of operations to transpose materials into useful products. To supplement his plan, he must select the types of tooling and equipment needed to carry it out. He must at the same time be concerned with product qual-ity, quantity, and manufacturing economy. This function is called process engineering and should not be confused with tool design which performs the mechanical funetion of designing the tools which are used to carry out the process engineer's plan.<br/><br/>In our initial statement we used the word coordination. This, of course, requires getting together all those people directly concerned with the successful production of the product. We emphasize the need for close contact with the product designer, for it is from his part print the process engineer must work. As in a legal contract, there must be a meeting of the minds. Both the designer and process engineer must work toward the same objective: To produce a product which is acceptable to the customer. Errors and omissions on the part print are not entirely avoidable. Some information needed for manufacturing cannot conveni-ently be specified on the print. Manufacturing problems discovered early in the planning may prevent costly engineering and tooling changes later. Thus, the need for close cooperation between these two functions is vital. It is significant, then, that in writing those sections of the book which relate to tolerances, surface quality, and other areas of common interest, we have endeavored to maintain contact with our associates in product design. In the end, we have all gained a closer understanding of each other's problems.<br/><br/>We have combined a substantial number of years of experience as process engineers or under related titles with such organizations as Chevrolet and Buick Motor Divisions, North American Aviation, Howard Manufacturing Corporation, and others, with our years of teaching this subject at General Motors Institute in developing this book. Many tech-niques and principles were developed or acquired over the years and are included. Prior to this book, our processing course was taught with the |
