Machinery's Handbook, Pocket Companion, is a concise yet
authoritative, highly useful reference that draws its content from the
Machinery's Handbook. Designed as a time saver, the Pocket Companion
is an ideal quick resource for anyone in manufacturing, metalworking,
and related fields for whom convenient access to just the most basic
data is essential.
The Pocket Companion draws on the wealth of tables, charts, and text
in the Machinery's Handbook, 31st Edition. Much of the information has
been reorganized, distilled, or simplified to increase the usefulness of
this book, while keeping it compact. The Pocket Companion is not
intended to replace the new Machinery's Handbook, 31st Edition.
Instead, it serves as a handy and more portable complement to the
Handbook's vast collection of text, data, and standards.
