| The field of manufacturing has undergone a significant transformation with the advent of advanced machining processes. These processes offer innovative solutions for machining complex shapes, hard-to-machine materials, and micro-scale components. This comprehensive book explores the world of advanced machining processes, encompassing a diverse range of techniques such as Electro-Discharge Machining (EDM), Electro-Chemical Machining (ECM), Laser-Based Machining (LBM), Electron Beam Machining (EBM), Abrasive Jet Machining (AJM), Water Jet Machining (WJM), and Ultrasonic Machining (USM). Each chapter provides an in-depth understanding of the principles, mechanisms, applications, and recent developments associated with these processes. This also delves into the integration and hybridization of these techniques, as well as the challenges and opportunities in implementing advanced machining in modern manufacturing. With insights into simulation, modeling, and future trends, this book serves as a valuable resource for researchers, students, and industry professionals seeking to explore and exploit the frontiers of advanced machining. |
