Good for inventors

Doesn't get into much theory. Tells how to answer questions like, how many v belts do I need? How big of an I beam should I use? How many bolts? Gets in quick with come formulas. But at times you might need to reference an engineering text book to understand some background. Lacks a section on hydraulics.

Mechanical Elements in Machine Design

I had to purchase this book for a college machine design class I am taking and it is pretty east to understand

Machine Elements in Mechanical Design is a great work!

I really have enjoyed using this book. It's a great overview of all elements in a mechanical design and the calculations necessary to make sure those elements do not fail under load. The book is written in a way that makes it easy to use. Just the right blend of explanation, calculation, and Graphs are used to provide the user with an excellent resource for many years of engineering work. I love this book and find it very valuable to have in collection of mechanical engineering books.

Excellent book for a working machine designer

I bought this book to get the basics of machine design and I am very happy with it. It has the basic stuff that you need to design mechanical devices. It covers the material very thoroughly and it does not blow you away with advanced math. Highly recommended.

It's actually what a designer needs!

This book is excellent becouse can easily explain the features, theory and practice in a very understandble way. Thank you Mr. Mott, now my work in my company is really profitable!

It's really what you need!

Before read this book my work at a company where i work used to be so slow. I've read other books but this is the best one for designers. Thank you Mr. Mott your book made my job actually profitable!
