Synopsis

The second edition of Basic Manufacturing has been revised to be in line with GNVQ specifications, covering the three compulsory units and the externally assessed optional unit. The author's approach is student-centred with self-check questions and activities provided throughout. As a result, the book should be suitable for independent study. Review questions are provided at the end of each chapter to consolidate learning and agive practice for external assessments. The book also offers an introduction to the technical and business aspects of the manufacturing industry that should be useful for students on a wide range of courses, including City & Guilds certificates. It also provides a good grounding for students on Advanced GNVQ programmes in manufacturing. This edition includes a new chapter on application of new technology in manufacturing.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Basic Manufacturing has already established itself as a core text for manufacturing courses in Further Education. The new edition has been revised to be fully in line with the new Vocational GCSE in Manufacturing from Edexcel, covering the three compulsory units of this scheme, and will continue to act as a core text for Intermediate GNVQ. Coverage of the two schemes is combined throughout the text, yet each chapter clearly illustrates which sections map to which units within the two scheme specifications.

The author's approach is student-centred with self-check questions and activities provided throughout. As a result, the book is well suited to independent study. It is also clearly written to appeal to students of all abilities. Review questions are provided at the end of each chapter to consolidate learning and give practice for external assessments.

The third edition contains a brand new chapter to cater for the examinable part of the GCSE syllabus (Unit 3), which includes case studies in the six sectors covered in the scheme: food and drink/biological and chemical; printing and publishing/paper and board; textiles and clothing; engineering fabrication; mechanical/automotive engineering; electrical and electronic engineering/computer/process control/telecommunications.

The book is an excellent, readable introduction to the technical and business aspects of the manufacturing industry that will be invaluable for students on a wide range of courses, including City and Guilds certificates. It also provides a good grounding for students embarking on higher-level programmes within Manufacturing.
