Long description
The primary objective of this book is to enable the user to readily access the theory and applications of computer-based technologies associated with computer integrated manufacturing. To fully realize the potential productivity increases that these technologies offer, manufacturers need to make major changes in the way they design products, view quality, store and transport materials, and interface the flow of materials and operations. To be able to compete in an industry that demands this knowledge, information is needed about the integrative factors of new technologies. This book provides this crucial data in a cross-referenced format.
