Machine Trades Print Reading

Machine Trades Print Reading is a combination text and write-in workbook designed to help students develop the skills required to visualize and interpret industrial prints. In addition to an overview of the role of prints in the design and manufacturing process, this text teaches students the fundamentals of visualizing shapes, line usage, title blocks and notes, math, measurement, dimensions, and tolerances. The new edition complies with the most recent ASME Y14.5 standard, resulting in a heavy revision of Unit 15—Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing. Print reading activities and unit review questions are included at the end of most units to provide you with valuable hands-on learning opportunities.
