  A naive engineer might ask: "How do I make a bracket?" A graduate of this textbook asks: What is the annual production volume? What are the tolerance requirements? What are the service stresses? What is the cost of the raw material vs. the cost of machining? --- Manufacturing Processes For Engineering Materials 6th

  • Anisotropy: Why does a drawn cup have ears? Because the sheet metal has directional properties.
  • Springback: The elastic recovery of metal after bending. You must over-bend to compensate.
  • Formability Diagrams: The Forming Limit Diagram (FLD) tells you if a sheet will tear or wrinkle.
