Description

Helps students master today’s quality techniques more rapidly and successfully, by presenting updated figures and problems, answers to half of the text’s problems, and significant new topic coverage.

 

New! Includes answers to odd-numbered chapter review questionspresented at the end of the book

  • Helps students check their understanding of the contents of each chapter 

Improved! New and revised figuresdesigned for greater clarity

  • Supports more visual and intuitive learning 

Improved! Updated and expanded coverage of geometric tolerancing—including new coverage of Tolerance Zones and Pattern Shifts from Size Datums

  • Helps students make full use of geometric tolerancing, one of today’s most valuable new innovations in manufacturing quality control 

New! Adds coverage of Failure Modes and Effects Analysis (FMEA)—showing how to eliminate product failures through better up-front design

  • Helps students recognize potential failure modes, identify the causes associated with them, and work with colleagues to solve the problem 

Revised! Review questions improved—including both updates and entirely new questions

  • Gives students more current and relevant hands-on practice

For all courses in Quality Control, Quality Assurance, and Inspection serving operators, machinists, inspectors, quality technicians, associate quality engineers, and other manufacturing and purchasing personnel; and for ASQ Certification Courses (e.g., Certified Quality Technician and Certified Mechanical Inspector).

 

An ASQ best-seller, this text covers the core skills that contribute to ongoing quality at the technician level. More comprehensive than competitive texts, it breaks down technical topics into easy-to-follow directions, many of them presented with step-by-step instructions and intuitive visuals. Coverage includes: quality basics, TQM, costs, audits, inspections, drawings, dimensioning, tolerancing, graphical inspection analysis, measurements, surface plate inspection, lot-by-lot acceptance sampling with current ANSI/ASQC standards, SPC, shop mathematics, and more. This edition presents many new and revised review questions, contains answers to odd-numbered questions, adds new coverage of Failure Modes and Effects Analysis (FMEA), and offers updated coverage of other topics, including Geometric Tolerancing.
