How Products Are Made. An Illustrated Guide to Product Manufacturing

Jacqueline L. Longe9780787624439, 0787624438

Every volume in this series is comprised of many individual entries, each covering a single product. Although each entry focuses on the products manufacturing process, it also provides a wealth of other information: who invented the product or how it has developed, how it works, what materials are used, how it is designed, quality control procedures, byproducts generated during its manufacture, future applications, and books and periodical articles containing more information.
