Micromanufacturing involves design, fabrication and assembly of compounds machined or manufactured at micron and sub-micron levels. It also includes nano-materials and nano-fabrication techniques in which nano-scale materials and processes are involved. These processes are beyond the traditional mechanical means of manufacturing and hence distinct micromanufacturing techniques have been developed. Many of the micro-manufacturing technologies can be considered as new, innovative and exotic and are being continuously developed. Aspects and pertinent topics considered in this book are: Micromanufacturing and its applications Design and materials consideration in micromanufacturing Overview of micromanufacturing processes Micro machining processes Diamond turning and diamond grinding Ultrasonic machining Laser technology Rapid micro-product development Nano materials, nano fabrication and nanotechnology Inspection and metrology in micromanufacturing Recent trends: Desktop machines and micro-factoring Technological challenges and R&D in micromanufacturing.
