Mechanical design for electronics product

·        The task, design considerations, developing steps of mechanical design for electronics product.

·        The frequent using mechanical components design guideline.

·        Specific function design, such as seal, EMC, screw torque definition and calculation.

·        Tolerance analysis.

·        Preliminary thermal distribution design.

·        Other topics such as DFM, failure root cause analysis, etc.

Components design guideline is the major part of this book. The components are categorized according manufacturing method, such as sheet metal, plastic injection, die casting, Aluminium extrusion, over mold, rubber keypad and standards components selection. In each individual guideline, the typical structure is used to include the main items of:

·        Characters about advantages and disadvantages.

·        Brief description of typical manufacturing process and related equipment.

·        Frequent using material.

·        Structure design considerations.

·        Typical features.

·        Tolerance.

·        Frequent defects and analysis.

The aim of this book is to provide guide and support to the junior mechanical design engineers in electronics industry, and I assume the readers have mechanical knowledge and reasonable design practise. So I excluded the massive basics that can be found from popular manuals or standards to make the book brief and wish could bring the readers practical help.
