Abstract

This chapter sheds light on the role and use of nanotechnology in manufacturing. The theme of this chapter is basically focused on nano-machining , nano-joining and welding, and nano-EDM technologies exploited for the production of precision engineered parts and components to cater the need of increasing global trend of miniaturization. Major nano-techniques in the aforementioned manufacturing areas, their development, current trend, salient features, and applications are exclusively discussed in this chapter.
