  2. Free machining steel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_machining_steel

    Free machining steel costs 15 to 20% more than standard steel, but this higher cost is offset by increased machining speeds, larger cuts, and longer tool life. [1] The disadvantages of free machining steel are: ductility is decreased; impact resistance is reduced; copper-based brazed joints suffer from embrittlement with bismuth free machining ...

  3. Broaching (metalworking) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Broaching_(metalworking)

    The semi-finishing teeth provide surface finish and the finishing teeth provide the final finishing. The finishing section's RPT (t f) is usually zero so that as the first finishing teeth wear the later ones continue the sizing function. For free-machining steels the RPT ranges from 0.006 to 0.001 in (0.152 to 0.025 mm). For surface broaching ...

  4. Fisher Electronics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fisher_Electronics

    Fisher's first receiver was the model 500, a mono AM/FM receiver using two EL37 output tubes. It had a brass-plated face panel and an optional mahogany or "blonde" wooden case. This early mono receiver should not be confused with the later stereo tube receiver models, the 500B and 500C. [9]

  5. Tuned radio frequency receiver - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tuned_radio_frequency_receiver

    It has two radio frequency amplifier stages, one grid-leak detector/amplifier and three class ‘A’ audio amplifier stages. There are 3 tuned circuits T1-C1, T2-C2, and T3-C3 . The second and third tuning capacitors, C2 and C3 , are ganged together (indicated by line linking them) and controlled by a single knob, to simplify tuning.

  6. Machinability - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Machinability

    Machinability is the ease with which a metal can be cut permitting the removal of the material with a satisfactory finish at low cost. [1] Materials with good machinability (free machining materials) require little power to cut, can be cut quickly, easily obtain a good finish, and do not cause significant wear on the tooling.

  7. Antique radio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antique_radio

    World War 2 created widespread urgent need for radio communication, and foxhole sets were built by people without access to traditional radio parts. A foxhole radio is a simple crystal sets radio receiver cobbled together from whatever parts one could make (which were very few indeed) or scrounged from junked equipment. Such a set typically ...

  8. Mechanical television - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mechanical_television

    The 'Scophony' television receiver of 1938, an advanced television receiver that used a mechanical display, was capable of displaying a 405-line picture (compatible with the then 405-line television system used in the United Kingdom) on a display that was 24-inch (60 cm) wide and 20-inch (50 cm) high. A version intended for theater audiences ...

  9. AC/DC receiver design - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AC/DC_receiver_design

    An AC/DC receiver design is a style of power supply of vacuum tube radio or television receivers that eliminated the bulky and expensive mains transformer. A side-effect of the design was that the receiver could in principle operate from a DC supply as well as an AC supply. Consequently, they were known as "AC/DC receivers".
