Daisy wheel printing is an impact printing technology invented in 1970 by Andrew Gabor [1] at Diablo Data Systems.It uses interchangeable pre-formed type elements, each with typically 96 glyphs, to generate high-quality output comparable to premium typewriters such as the IBM Selectric, but two to three times faster.
Line matrix printers are capable of printing much more than 1000 cps, resulting in a throughput of up to 800 pages per hour. A variation on the dot matrix printer was the cross hammer dot printer, patented by Seikosha in 1982.

[64] The specific rolling resistance in bearings varies with both wheel loading and speed. [65] Wheel bearing rolling resistance is lowest with high axle loads and intermediate speeds of 60–80 km/h with a Crr of 0.00013 (axle load of ...
