This is a complete guide to press brake operation, from basic mathematics to complex forming operations. Press Brake Technology is the most comprehensive text on press brakes to date. It brings advanced knowledge of its subject to engineering department, shop floor, and classroom. It presents information in a non-machine specific format and establishes a baseline reference, using the application of basic mathematics, trigonometry, and geometry to select die widths, establish precise bend deductions, and other aspects of press brake operation. It focuses on the machines, the procedures, the mathematics, the tools, and the safe procedures necessary to run an efficient press brake operation. Readers learn how to apply this knowledge to shop floor activities. Press Brake Technology is geared for the master craftsman as well as the novice, and is an excellent resource for engineering and drafting courses.

In the past few decades, friction material engineering has become more sophisticated with many tests and techniques to investigate the properties of the materials and their counterparts before, during and after friction occurred. There has not been too much information available on the different raw materials used for friction materials. This book is more focused towards the raw materials that formulate the different friction materials. It explains about their main friction effects and material structure. Handbook of Friction Materials and Their Applications begins by explaining about different friction materials and how they can be used for brakes. It then goes onto explain the tribology of friction materials. Further out it discusses how different friction materials are formulated and produced. Noise and vibration are explained in a further chapter. The later part talks about how different raw materials can be used for friction materials, such as metals, carbon, organic and inorganic materials. - Explains how different friction materials can be used for brakes - Discusses the noise and vibration effects in friction materials - Covers the raw materials that are used in friction materials
