Micro-Cutting 
Fundamentals and Applications

Micro-Cutting: Fundamentals and Applications
comprehensively covers the state of the art research and
engineering practice in micro/nano cutting: an area which is
becoming increasingly important, especially in modern
micro-manufacturing, ultraprecision manufacturing and high value
manufacturing.

This book provides basic theory, design and analysis of
micro-toolings and machines, modelling methods and techniques, and
integrated approaches for micro-cutting. The fundamental
characteristics, modelling, simulation and optimization of
micro/nano cutting processes are emphasized with particular
reference to the predictabilty, producibility, repeatability and
productivity of manufacturing at micro and nano scales.

The fundamentals of micro/nano cutting are applied to a variety
of machining processes including diamond turning, micromilling,
micro/nano grinding/polishing, ultraprecision machining, and the
design and implementation of micro/nano cutting process chains and
micromachining systems.

Key features

* Contains contributions from leading global experts

* Covers the fundamental theory of micro-cutting

* Presents applications in a variety of machining
processes

* Includes examples of how to implement and apply
micro-cutting for precision and micro-manufacturing

Micro-Cutting: Fundamentals and Applications is an ideal
reference for manufacturing engineers, production supervisors,
tooling engineers, planning and application engineers, as well as
machine tool designers. It is also a suitable textbook for
postgraduate students in the areas of micro-manufacturing,
micro-engineering and advanced manufacturing methods.
