Concept Modeling
Rapid Injection Mold Tooling

This program compares rapid injection mold tooling to standard CNC machined tooling. The standard turn around time to machine a mold is about 45 days. Rapid Tooling can cut this turn around time by approximately 30% in some cases, and is less expensive then the traditional methods. Companies in this program show how rapid tooling saved time and money.
This program presents an in-depth examination of concept modeling machines and their growing impact on new product development. This informative program looks at three different machines, the Genisys by Stratasys, the Actua by 3D Systems, and the Mold Maker by Sanders Prototype, and it explores how engineers are adapting their approach to projects to reap the most benefit.

Practical Lean Accounting: A Proven System for Measuring and Managing
As companies move ahead with the implementation of lean production, financial functions often lag behind. When this happens, not only do they fail to actively support the effort, but they can actually hinder it. In Practical Lean Accounting: A Proven System for Measuring and Managing the Lean Enterprise, authors Brian Maskell and Bruce Baggaley present a step-by-step method for transforming a manufacturing company's financial functions to support lean manufacturing. This step-by-step method transforms the accounting system to follow the company's pathway through lean implementation covering what needs to be done at each stage to support lean. A case study runs throughout the text illustrating the lean accounting transformation within the context of the whole lean enterprise. A CDROM is included containing a comprehensive lean accounting diagnostic, detailed forms, and diagrams supporting the transformation to lean accounting. Practical Lean Accounting is a valuable tool for CFOs, controllers, accounting staff, and general managers that use key financial information to control their processes and support lean implementation.

TQM: Creating a Culture of Continuous Improvement

Explore the ongoing development of Total Quality Management (TQM), once a company has laid the critical groundwork. Major topics addressed include the approaches of Taguchi and Ishikawa, how to measure performance and reach goals, and how to exploit TQMs hidden benefits as the process matures. Experts discuss the major TQM trends, examine performance measurements, explain why companies fail to reach TQM goals, and analyze the future of TQM.
Failure Mode Effects Analysis

The program is an introduction to the quality methodology Failure Mode Effects Analysis (FMEA), and was produced in cooperation with Robert Bosch Corporation in Farmington Hills, Michigan. As every new product is being designed, most manufacturing companies are developing FMEA documents to reduce the risk of product failures. In addition, quality standards like ISO9000 and QS9000 require an FMEA on all new products. To shorten development cycles, many different experts are involved in the design and testing phases of new products. This program was designed to quickly bring all the team members up to speed on how the FMEA methods and procedures will impact them. After viewing this program, every person on your design team will have a good understanding of the importance of risk reduction and how the FMEA will keep track of these responsibilities.

Users Guide to Powder Coating 4th Edition
For nearly 20 years, "User's Guide to Powder Coating" has been the leading hands-on guide on powder coating technology. Now in its 4th edition, the book addresses recent developments which have contributed to powder coating's ever-increasing favorability over liquid coating. Since the publication of the last edition, this process has been adapted to a wider range of applications, notably for hightemperature and temperature-sensitive products. Equipment has been greatly improved, achieving faster color change, increasing transfer efficiency, and reducing overall powder usage. Environmental requirements have prompted many companies to switch to powder coating. This book combines information on the latest breakthroughs in the industry (notably ultraviolet-curable materials for plastic and wood products, and improved systems) and tried-and-true guidelines from the previous edition (including factors like material selection, design considerations, surface preparation, quality control and testing, troubleshooting and safety, and more), so you can achieve superior finishes with efficiency.

Communication Patterns of Engineers

"Knowledge is a building block, an essential ingredient of technological innovation. The rate at which knowledge is created, diffused, absorbed, or utilized influences the rate of technological innovation. Engineers and engineering are at the very core of technological innovation. Therefore, understanding how engineers produce, transfer, and use knowledge is a critical element of innovation, technological progress, and economic competitiveness. Carol Tenopir and Don King offer an astute presentation and analysis of what is known about the production, transfer, and use of knowledge by engineers. Their book offers the most current thought and thinking about the communication patterns of engineers. Individuals interested in knowledge as an intellectual asset should find this book worthwhile. It should broaden the view of students, serve as a valuable resource for scholars and researchers, and help practitioners shape policy, manage knowledge, and provide information services. Professors Tenopir and King are to be congratulated and complimented for producing a well-crafted book." Dr. Thomas E. Pinelli, NASA Langley Research Center
