A Japanese Monozukuri View of Needs and Strategies

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Based on first-hand experience transferring technology between Japan and other countries, this book offers information, advice, and methods for successful transfer of technology and the skills to use it. It covers skill transfer, production management, and manufacturing company classification with new surveys of changing Japanese company views on benefits and needs of transfer. It also includes case studies of transfers in the ship building and food equipment industries. The authors provide readers with a sound understanding of the breadth of issues involved to arm manufacturing engineers with the skills needed for successful skills and technology transfers.

Autorenporträt

Yasuo Yamane received his undergraduate engineering education from Hiroshima University before taking a position as a machine tool designer with the Toshiba Machine Tool Company. He gained his doctoral degree, again from Hiroshima, in 1980, before commencing an academic career. He has been a professor (1983-present), Dean of the Graduate School of Engineering (2005-2009), and the Director of Hiroshima University's Venture Business Laboratory (2000-2003) and Collaborative Research Centre (2003-2005). He is currently (2009-present) the Vice President of Hiroshima University with a special responsibility for international affairs. It is this broad background experience, added to his career-long special researches in metal machining, machine tool design, and technology transfer, that has given him the insights and desire to develop the present book's scope and contents. He is also a co-author of the advanced level text book Metal Machining: Theory and Applications.

Tom Childs was the lead-author of the book Metal Machining: Theory and Applications. He received his undergraduate and postgraduate degrees from Cambridge University. From 1989 until his retirement in 2008 was Professor of Manufacturing Engineering in the School of Mechanical Engineering of the University of Leeds. He has published some 200 papers in the areas of metal machining and more generally on friction and wear in engineering components. He has spent three extensive periods as guest scholar / visiting professor in Japan, at Tokyo Institute of Technology, Osaka University and most recently Hiroshima University. It is these and other exchanges that have given him an interest and insight into the origins of Japanese manufacturing skills and culture (sometimes described by the word 'monozukuri' in Japan) and which underpin his co-authorship of this book.
