Machinery’s Handbook has been the most popular reference work in metalworking, design, engineering and manufacturing facilities, and in technical schools and colleges throughout the world for nearly 100 years. It is universally acknowledged as an extraordinarily authoritative, comprehensive, and practical tool, providing its users with the most fundamental and essential aspects of sophisticated manufacturing practice. The 29th edition of the “Bible of the Metalworking Industries” contains major revisions of existing content, as well as new material on a variety of topics. It is the essential reference for Mechanical, Manufacturing, and Industrial Engineers, Designers, Draftsmen, Toolmakers, Machinists, Engineering and Technology Students, and the serious Home Hobbyist.

The Machinery’s Handbook 29 CD-ROM contains the complete contents of the print edition, presented in Adobe PDF format. This popular and well-known format allows viewing and printing of pages that are identical to those of the printed book, permits rapid searching of the entire Handbook, and includes the ability to magnify the view of any page. Navigation aids in the form of thousands of clickable bookmarks, page cross references, and index entries take you quickly to any page referenced. Besides the full print edition, the CD-ROM includes over 500 pages of additional data, mostly material that was published in previous print editions but subsequently removed due to space restrictions. The 29th Edition CD-ROM also provides an expanded array of the popular INTERACTIVE MATH EQUATIONS. Users will be able to instantly calculate cutting speeds, dimensions of bevels, moments of inertia, the measurement of various screw threads, the center of gravity for any shape, hardness of material, volumes, taper angles, matrices, … and much, much more. Minimum requirements: Windows Operating System, 32-and 64-bit; Internet connection for authorization and Interactive Math.

Six Sigma Master Black Belts show how to create and implement a corporate sustainability strategy using Six Sigma

Six Sigma for Sustainabilityexplains how to get started with a corporate sustainability program or take existing sustainability programs to a higher level of systematic management and production of results. Regardless of why large companies are going green, the shift is never an easy one, particularly within large corporations, where change can be glacial. That’s where this book comes in—it’s the perfect resource for CEOs launching or professionalizing an environmental sustainability program, and Six Sigma Green or Black Belts charged with running a green or sustainability strategy.

The authors show how typical Six Sigma/DMAIC structures lend themselves to sustainability, and how to use the power and tools of Six Sigma to help solve the challenge of sustainability. They explain in detail how typical sustainability problems such as carbon emissions, energy conservation, materials recycling, water use, and finance can be solved using Six Sigma tools. This is a practical, case-based book on the topic of sustainability program implementation.

Six Sigma for Sustainability

  • Offers a unique approach—familiarizes the Six Sigma expert with sustainability issues, and vice versa
  • Includes valuable advice on how to successfully apply Six Sigma to green initiatives that promote long-term sustainability while driving bottom-line results
  • Provides case-based examples of concrete Six Sigma projects, including energy program design and solar energy within the government
  • Approaches sustainability from a value chain perspective, leveraging and engaging employees, suppliers, and customers in the initiative
  • Demonstrates the leadership framework necessary to drive sustainability
  • Discusses how to be “more good” instead of “less bad”
  • Uses examples from The Natural Step and the 4 systems conditions (extraction, creation, disruption, and basic human needs)
  • Provides an overview of the Greenhouse Gas Protocol and the Carbon Disclosure Project
