The development of the pressed metal industry during the past several decades has been so vigorous and rapid that manufacturing equipment and techniques have undergone constant change. Close cooperation between equipment builder and metal parts producer has resulted in the continual improvement of production machinery. Thus by joint effort and the ingenious engineering and manufacturing abilities of the pressed metal machinery builders, industry has achieved such remarkable efficiency that luxuries of yesterday are today's commonplace.
By Increasing output per manhour and saving time, money and materials, press users have been able to pass on benefits to consumers and employees in the form of better products at lower prices, higher wages, shorter hours and better working conditions than can be found elsewhere in the world. The pressed metal machinery industry in therefore a vital necessity to this country's continued progress. It is only logical that this industry must remain healthy and productive, if it is to meet the challenges of the future.
This edition of the Bliss Power Press Handbook contains Approximately 700 Pages of information of Particular interest to users of 200,000 Bliss-built presses now serving industry. It is also intended to serve as an authoritative guide to engineers and production executives concerned with the operation of presses and dies in the manufacture of pressed metal products.
