About this Book

This book embraces some scientific methods, innovations, and advanced technologies, which were widely examined, on machine-buildings and ship-repair plants.

The main objective of this book is to provide engineers, technical personnel, and managers with some problems, which have place in the process of the production of machines and mechanisms, and to find the ways of solving them.

In basis of this task were put such questions as increasing quality production and decreasing its cost.

In this book these topics have been organized into three chapters:

CHAPTER I presents the most important problems of any engineering industry-this is the decreasing of waste products (such as cast iron bronze, graphite chip or dust, etc) to the environment; and also increasing the reliability of any mechanism and machine for the people in condition of their operation.

The author recommends for this goal widely to use the pneumatic transportation and some new innovations.

CHAPTER II discovers some advanced technologies in Manufacturing Engineering and shows the effectiveness of some machines and mechanisms. Here also is given big attention to the question of increasing quality production and productivity labor.

CHAPTER III relates advantageously to Maritime Engineering and discovery of some progressive methods for the ship-repair plants and also for the ships which sail in condition of waves in the tropical seawaters.

This book can be used also for the students or other practicing professional in business, industry, or government.

This book includes about 86 illustrations, many innovations, and different advanced technologies.
