  2. Speeds and feeds - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speeds_and_feeds

    Cutting speed may be defined as the rate at the workpiece surface, irrespective of the machining operation used. A cutting speed for mild steel of 100 ft/min is the same whether it is the speed of the cutter passing over the workpiece, such as in a turning operation, or the speed of the cutter moving past a workpiece, such as in a milling operation.

  3. LHD (load, haul, dump machine) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LHD_(Load,_Haul,_Dump_machine)

    The speed of the vehicle is controlled mechanically. The transmission is controlled by a hydrostatic drive; in hydrostatic transmission, the motor drives a variable displacement pump hydraulically connected to a hydro-motor driving the axle via a gearbox. The speed is controlled by changing the displacement volume of the axial pump.

  4. Speedloader - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speedloader

    An 1858 New Model Army black-powder cap-and-ball revolver replica. The cylinder has been removed from the frame. The modern revolver circular speedloader holds a full cylinder complement of cartridges in a secure fashion, spaced in a circular configuration so as to allow the cartridges to drop simultaneously into the cylinder easily (although non-circular types such as half moon clips are very ...

  5. Variable-speed air compressor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Variable-speed_air_compressor

    If a variable speed drive compressor operates continuously at full speed, the switching losses of the frequency converter result in a lower energy efficiency than an otherwise identically sized fixed speed compressor. Where demand remains constant within 5–15% of the total free air delivery flow rate, dual-control compressors configured in a ...

    The advantage is a stepless gear ratio (continuously variable speed/torque) and a more flexible control of the gear ratio depending on the load and operating conditions. The hydrostatic transmission is generally limited to around 200 kW maximum power, as the total cost gets too high at higher power compared to a hydrodynamic transmission.

  8. Curta - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curta

    The Curta was conceived by Curt Herzstark in the 1930s in Vienna, Austria.By 1938, he had filed a key patent, covering his complemented stepped drum. [3] [4] This single drum replaced the multiple drums, typically around 10 or so, of contemporary calculators, and it enabled not only addition, but subtraction through nines complement math, essentially subtracting by adding.

  9. Marchant Calculating Machine Company - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marchant_Calculating...

    Marchant XLA calculator, based on Friden's design. The Marchant Calculating Machine Company was founded in 1911 by Rodney and Alfred Marchant in Oakland, California. The company built mechanical, and then electromechanical calculators which had a reputation for reliability. First models were similar to the Odhner arithmometer.
