Machinery’s Handbook, the latest
Machinery’s Handbook Pocket Companion is an ideal quick resource for students and professionals in manufacturing, metalworking, and related fields for whom convenient access to the most basic data is essential. This expertly curated collection includes tables, charts, and text selected from the
Handbook. Much of the information has been reorganized, distilled, or simplified to increase the usefulness of this data-rich resource, while keeping it compact.
