The angle of the boom can be adjusted to control the depth of the cut. To cut a trench, the boom is held at a fixed angle while the machine creeps slowly. The chain trencher is used for digging wider trenches (telecommunication, electricity, drainage, water, gas, sanitation, etc.) especially in rural areas.
David Wilkinson (January 5, 1771 – February 3, 1852) [1] was a U.S. mechanical engineer who invented a lathe for cutting screw threads, which was extremely important in the development of the machine tool industry in the early 19th century.
Modern machine shop workstation, 2009. A machine shop or engineering workshop is a room, building, or company where machining, a form of subtractive manufacturing, is done.

A forming press, commonly shortened to press, is a machine tool that changes the shape of a work-piece by the application of pressure. [1]
The first plant to begin manufacturing product specifically for CP was the Boyer Machine Shop in St. Louis, Missouri. [6] In 1901, Duntley met steel magnate Charles M. Schwab, who invested heavily in the company. On December 28, the company was incorporated and the first single-valve pneumatic hammer was patented. [7]
A Block and bleed manifold is a hydraulic manifold that combines one or more block/isolate valves, usually ball valves, and one or more bleed/vent valves, usually ball or needle valves, into one component for interface with other components (pressure measurement transmitters, gauges, switches, etc.) of a hydraulic system. The purpose of the ...
The BFS process functions similarly to conventional extrusion blow molding, and takes place within a BFS machine. [6] First, a plastic polymer resin is heated to >160 °C and compressed to 35 MPa, [11] [15] allowing it to be extruded in tubular form, [1] and be taken over by an open two-part [16] mold to form the container. Then, the mold ...
