Abstract
For the metalworking industry to remain profitable, it must continually reduce its cost of manufacturing parts. One important segment of this economic procedure has been the costs involved in removing unwanted material from the workpiece. For example, the airplane part shown in Fig. 6.1 originally weighed 6000 lb (2725 kg) and is machined down to 435 lb (197 kg) after many hours on large, expensive machine tools.
