  2. APT (programming language) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/APT_(programming_language)

    APT is used to program numerically-controlled machine tools to create complex parts using a cutting tool moving in space. It is used to calculate a path that a tool must follow to generate a desired form. APT is a special-purpose language and the predecessor to modern computer aided manufacturing (CAM) systems. It was created and refined during ...

  3. Exploded-view drawing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exploded-view_drawing

    An exploded-view drawing is a diagram, picture, schematic or technical drawing of an object, that shows the relationship or order of assembly of various parts. [1]It shows the components of an object slightly separated by distance, or suspended in surrounding space in the case of a three-dimensional exploded diagram.

  4. User guide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_guide

    User manuals and user guides for most non-trivial PC and browser software applications are book-like documents with contents similar to the above list. They may be distributed either in print or electronically. Some documents have a more fluid structure with many internal links. The Google Earth User Guide [4] is an example of this format.

  5. Corkscrew - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corkscrew

    As the worm is twisted into the cork, the levers are raised. Pushing down the levers draws the cork from the bottle in one smooth motion. The most common design has a rack and pinion connecting the levers to the body. The head of the central shaft is frequently modified to form a bottle opener, or foil cutter, increasing the utility of the ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cutting_tool_(machining)

    This factor describes the form of the cutting edge. 3 angles: clearance angle, wedge angle, rake (chipping) angle; Δr; length and orientation of the bevel; Cutting edge profile with parameters. One of the most important cutting edge parameters is the K factor. It specifies the form of the cutting edge. 1 means a symmetric cutting edge.

    View of a typical setup on a T&C grinder. A Tool and Cutter Grinder is used to sharpen milling cutters and tool bits along with a host of other cutting tools.. It is an extremely versatile machine used to perform a variety of grinding operations: surface, cylindrical, or complex shapes.

  8. Cork borer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cork_borer

    Cork borers usually come in a set of nested sizes along with a solid pin for pushing the removed cork (or rubber) out of the borer. The individual borer is a hollow tube, tapered at the edge, generally with some kind of handle at the other end. A separate device is a cork borer sharpener used to hone the cutting edge to more easily slice the cork.

  9. Electrical discharge machining - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_discharge_machining

    The electrode and workpiece are connected to a suitable power supply. The power supply generates an electrical potential between the two parts. As the electrode approaches the workpiece, dielectric breakdown occurs in the fluid, forming a plasma channel, [16] [23] [24] [25] and a small spark jumps.
