Special thanks to the Magna Technical Training Centre for their input into the English translation of this book. The section dealing with PAL programming of CNC machine tools was updated (to the state of 2008) and considerably enhanced.ħ Automation and Information Technology 345-406Ĩ International material comparison chart, Standards 407-416 We have thoroughly revised the 2nd edition of the "Mechanical and Metal Trades Handbook" in line with the 44th edition of the German version "Tabellenbuch Metall". In many cases previous standards are also listed to ease the transition from older, more familiar standards to new ones. The Standards Index (pages 407-416) lists all the current standards and regulations cited in the book. The Subject Index at the end of the book (pages 417-428) is extensive. The Table of Contents in the front of the book is expanded further at the beginning of each chapter in form of a partial Table of Contents.
Designation examples, which are included for all standard parts, materials and drawing designations, are highlighted by a red arrow (=>). However, the calculation examples for each formula use those units normally applied in practice. Units are not specified in the legends for the formulae if several units are possible. The tables contain the most important guidelines, designs, types, dimensions and standard values for their subject areas. Notes for the user The contents of this book include tables and formulae in eight chapters, including Tables of Contents, Subject Index and Standards Index. It is also useful for educational purposes, especially in practical work or curricula and continuing education programs. The Mechanical and Metal Trades Handbook is well-suited for shop reference, tooling, machine building, maintenance and as a general book of knowledge.
