Excerpt
In a more and more globalized world, the competitiveness requirements of industrial companies force them to develop their products in more and more reduced times and costs. The control of manufacturing processes and of the consequences that they induce on the final products is a critical success factor in this context. Manufacturing processes utilized in industry are numerous and diverse. One can mention:-
direct elaboration processes such as casting, additive manufacturing or liquid composite molding,
-
forming processes such as rolling, deep-drawing, blanking, forging, stamping or machining,
-
assembling processes such as welding, riveting, clinching, hemming or bonding,
-
heat treatment processes such as quenching, thermochemical surface treatment such as carburinzing or nitriding, thermomechanical surface treatments such as shot peening.
