2nd Edition-SHOT PEENING
It is not often that a work of technical literature becomes a bestseller, especially since the market is usually very limited. But the 1st edition of SHOT PEENING has been an exception and it is totally sold out. Therefore we have decided to publish a 2nd edition. The new edition has been completely revised and updated with 3 additional chapters and 4 new authors. Various new technologies have been added. The fact that this book is written by 22 experts in our industries, coming from as many as 11 countries, demonstrates the wide range of knowledge covered. The aim of the authors is for this edition to become the reference book for the shot peening industry. SHOT PEENING also draws on the experience of providing shot peening training courses around the globe in up to eight languages. This training is carried out by MFN (Metal Finishing News), an organization that has over 30 trainers and access to three permanently-available training centers. Thousands of people have attended these shot peening courses over the past years. This book will give its readers fundamental and advanced knowledge about shot peening.
