Brand: ASM International ASM International Handbook of Workability and Process Design

For professionals involved in the design, evaluation, or production of metal parts, the Handbook of Workability and Process Design serves as a primary reference for mastering material characteristics. This resource addresses the complex nature of workability, linking material properties directly to process requirements to help you achieve better results in manufacturing. This handbook provides the foundational concepts and practical methods needed to design, evaluate, and optimize bulk working operations. Whether you are working with forging, rolling, or extrusion, the text offers guidance on managing the relationship between material behavior and process design. It includes updated content from the previous ASTM publication, Workability Testing Techniques, making it a modern essential for engineers and technicians in the materials science field. Use this guide to improve your process design and ensure more effective metalworking operations.
