A "must have" for design/manufacturing engineers.......2000-02-12
I teach Product Design Engineering at Ohio State and I can honestly say that Bralla is absolutely the best single reference for working designers and manufacturing engineers that I've found. An incredible compendium of useful info on just about any manufacturing process you can think of, and plenty you HAVEN'T thought of, plus chapters on Design for Assembly, materials, economic considerations - you name it. The book is a bit pricey, but considering the amount of useful information packed into it, it's a steal. Bralla far exceeds McGraw-Hill's regrettably low standards for their handbooks - this one is a keeper!
Product Description
This indispensable, all inclusive reference guide to plastic part design is compiled with the product designer in mind, who is looking for more detailed information on plastic resins, the rules and geometries underlying their use in product design, and the advantages and limitations of their use in industrial applications. The designer will also find valuable advice on resin and tool selection and processing parameters that will allow fast and successful product development and manufacture. Thousands of hours of research and cross-referencing have gone into the completion of this work. In addition, the hands-on knowledge of a plastics expert with more than 35 years experience incorporated in this handbook makes it an invaluable tool for any product designer facing the challenges of our global plastics industry.

Book Description
This extensively updated second edition was created for medical device, medical packaging, and food packaging design engineers, material product technical support, and research/development personnel. This comprehensive databook contains important characteristics and properties data on the effects of sterilization methods on plastics and elastomers. It provides a ready reference for comparing materials in the same family as well as materials in different families.
Data is presented on 43 major plastic and elastomer packaging materials, including biodegradable or organic polymers. New to this edition are resin chapters containing textual summary information including: category; general description; applications; resistances to particular sterilization methods; and regulatory status considerations for use in medical devices and medical/food packaging. The resin chapter material supplier trade name product data is presented in graphical and tabular format, with results normalized to SI units, retaining the familiar format of the best selling first edition and allowing easy comparison between materials and test conditions.

A good book for polymer material selection for medical device.......2007-08-28
This is the only book that deals with different sterilization methods on various polymer materials. Lots of graphs and charts so that one can get the information needed very quickly. An excellent resource to have.
Product Description

Very goo technical book but.......2006-12-16
I found it to be a great book for technical stuff. I'm new to constructing and engineering and have never finished it in University and just had to take over someone's place at a job. But I have to say that I was dissapointed only at one thing: It does have a vast variety of different Snap-fits but I was hoping that I could find a table with all possible snap fits in it. Like for example I found a few snap fits that are not listen in the book but I still have to say that is is quite an excellent book. It would be great to have a very large table of all possible snap fits at the back and some data.

Excellent Book.......2007-09-15
I'm a Principle Staff Mech Engr with ten years experience at Motorola and Nokia. This is an excellent resource book for design, and a helpful resource when putting together snap-fit design workshops for jr and sr mechanical engineers.
Author Clarifies.......2005-11-06
Potential readers should take advantage of this site's feature that lets you review this book's Table of Contents and Introduction. As is clearly explained in the "Introduction" and "Reader Expectations" Sections, this book is not just about equations for snap feature behavior. There are indeed many sources for feature behavior calculations; some are provided in the book. This book is useful if you want to understand a snap-fit attachment as a system in order to avoid many common errors. Many of these errors are trivial, but they are repeated again and again in all kinds of plastic products. My personal experience is that the root causes of most snap-fit attachment problems are neither prevented nor resolved by simply calculating feature behavior and a 'systems' approach is essential. To post this message, I must rate my own book; this is not an attempt to bias the ratings.
Too wordy and academic.......2005-10-19
I agree with the other people who said this book repeats itself. It could have been about 1/5th the length and still contained the same amount of information. He spends a lot of time on definitions instead of practical information. After purchasing his book, I found some free snap-fit design guides on the internet that I found much more useful.
Too much self-evident things.......2004-09-27
First I must say that this book is not for snap-fit calculation, it is about snap-fir consepts. So it helps a lot in designing snap-fit as a whole (locators, guides etc). Not so helpful if you just have to design and calculate special snap-fit feature.
Good book for beginners but it repeats too much too simple things -> too much "fluffy" pages, less pages would be better better
I would give 3 stars. This obviusly is not 5 star book, altough I would recommend this book if you are going to design more than one snap fitting.
The pratical methodology for snap-fit mechanism design.......2001-05-20
Unlike most of the design reference book, this one gives design engineers very good logical ways, i.e. design methodology, for snap-fit mechanism design. It will avoid the mistakes a young engineer might make, and the writer also provides several very good examples to guide experienced engineers' creativity.

Book Description
The first book to shed light on the critical role the melt delivery system plays in successful injection molding. This book will give you an immediate head-start by reducing mold commissioning times, increasing productivity, improving customer satisfaction, and achieving quality goals such as Six Sigma.
How do you determine the optimum design of your runners, what type of runner system do you use for a specific application, and how do you identify molding problems generated by the gate and runner vs. those stemming from other molding issues? The "Runner and Gate Design Handbook" will give you the means to get to the bottom of these issues.

Found Memories.......2002-03-21
This book is a great resource for projects in art for children. You could say that I was the test subject for a lot of what's in this book. Willard was my grandfather. This book is a treasure that every elementary school teacher should have. My grandfather would take me to the university to work on projects and then put them in the book. What fun that was. Share this book with your children as my grandfather enjoyed it with his son and grandson.
Great for children's crafts.......1998-07-19
We used this book as a textbook for my Elementary Education Art Methods & Materials class. It is jam-packed with projects to do with children. Highly recommended.
