Designing Plastic Parts For Assembly

by Paul A. Tres

The detailed yet simplified discussion of material selection, manufacturing techniques, and assembly procedures will enable the reader to evaluate plastic materials and to adequately design plastic parts for assembly.
The book describes good joint design and purpose, the geometry and nature of the component parts, the types of load involved and other basic information necessary in order to work successfully in this field. The treatment is at all times practice-oriented and focused on everyday problems and situations.
