In this paper the problems of introducing the teaching of a specialized subject into undergraduate courses are discussed with particular reference to the specific features of machine-tool technology. These cover the facts that the machine must be considered as part of an overall manufacturing system, so that the concept of performance differs from that encountered in other types of machinery such as internal-combustion engines, and that technological, economic, and human aspects must also be considered. Comparisons are made between Continental, particularly German, practice and present practice in some British universities. Some typical approaches to the organization of postgraduate full-time courses and short-term specialized courses are given. Finally, a comparison is made between the employment of university trained engineers in the machine-tool manufacturing and using industries in Great Britain and in Germany.

With the continuous development of machine tool technology, the machine design requires more and more work for the precision and high quality direction. The design of the driving shaft for the whole machine tool has a very important influence. To improve the ability to make rational analysis and accurate dynamic performance of machine tool, this paper presents an analysis method of modal improved driving shaft based on the amount of calculation, the flow and the external factors are improved, the method can improve the design level of machine tool, making full analysis and detailed characteristics of the whole machine, for further improvement of the machine has a reference role in science.

Due to its fast growth China is rapidly becoming a focus for globalized manufacturing strategies and is now one of the world's largest markets for technology. The international transfer of manufacturing technology has also contributed significantly to the recent sharp increase in the rate of China's industrial development. The Chinese machine tool industry, for example, has exhibited an annual growth of more than 12% between 1980 and 1995 and is now one of the largest markets for machine tool technology. Technology transfer agreements are not motivated only by the willingness of foreign suppliers but also by the desire of Chinese enterprises to acquire technology. One of the major problems in technology transfer is how to establish the value of the technology. In many cases partnerships between foreign companies and Chinese enterprises fail to become established because the value of technology cannot be agreed by both sides. It is therefore important to establish a method for valuing transferred technology. This paper outlines the concept of a technology valuation model which is being developed using empirical data from the machine tool industry. It is based on research carried out in the UK and China, and draws on selected case studies of technology transfer in the machine tool sector supplemented by information obtained from questionnaire surveys carried out in both countries.
