Synopsis: This textbook is part of the five-volume work on manufacturing processes. This volume focuses on the presentation of process fundamentals and applications of electrical discharge machining and electrochemical manufacturing processes (electrochemical machining and electroplating) as well as laser, electron and water jet processes. Fundamental insights into the physical principles are provided and modelling and optimization methods are presented. Practical examples are used to show how technological knowledge can be used in product development and process (chain) design.In this first English edition, latest results from research have been added to the existing content of former German editions. New additions include principles for building models, optimization strategies and the application of machine learning. In addition to use in (self) study and technical training, the book is also suitable as a reference work in product development and production planning. Technical personnel responsible for manufacturing will find a wide range of approaches for setting up processes, monitoring, control and optimization.
