Types of Tools

Tools in general have numerous types and applications. Stone and wooden tools are still in use for household purposes, e.g., stone milling wheel for grinding grains and wooden plow. Classification of tools is not an easy task as there are wide varieties of tools which may be manual and automatic. Some simple handheld cutting tools are knife, axe, sickle, saw, scissor, nail cutter, and razor blade, where there is a

The API recommended makeup torque for different types of tool Joints and classes of drill pipe is given in Table 4-89. 

Coatings play a vital part in the cutting-tool industry and this is where CVD technology has made some of its most important gains. As an example, CVD films of titanium carbide on cemented carbide tools were first commercialized in the early 1960s and their use has continuously increased ever since. Today, the percentage of tools that are coated by either PVD or CVD depends on the type of tool as shown in Table 18.1 (in 1996). 

Multidimensional assessment tools obtain information about the pain and impact on quality of life, but are often more time-consuming to complete. Examples of these types of tools include the Initial Pain Assessment Tool, Brief Pain Inventory, McGill Pain Questionnaire, the Neuropathic Pain Scale, and the Oswestry Disability Index.29-33... 

The second type of monitoring Sis are constructed from tools such as (safety) inspections, and (safety) observational programmes. These tools are numerous, van Steen (van Steen, 1996) amongst others provides an overview of many different technical and human based inspections utilized by different companies in the chemical process industry. The aim of this type of tool is to check the presence and effectiveness of technical and human safety measures. This safe way of working is compared with standards (technical and human) and expert opinion to indicate...

Heat transfer models are a powerful tool for developing autoclave process cycles. They are especially useful in aiding tool designers in choosing tooling materials, thicknesses, and thermocouple locations. Models can also be used to determine if a tooling concept would be detrimental in a specific position in the autoclave and the types of tools that should be processed together to optimize the cure cycle. 

Mechanical devices cover a wide range of types of tools. In general, they are tools that relate to physical work and are governed by mechanical forces and movements. You can usually see what they do and how they work—as opposed to, say, a light switch or a battery, which are electrical devices. Some tools are used to directly accomplish a specific task, as when you use a hand saw to cut a piece of wood. Others, such as pulleys and gears, may be used indirectly to accomplish certain tasks that would be possible without the device but are easier with it. Still others, such as gauges, only provide feedback information on the operation of other mechanical devices. You see and use mechanical devices many times each day, so there is no reason to be intimidated by a mechanical aptitude section on the exam. 

Team 2 will set up staging during the initial walkaround. Staging shall be set up in an area that is as accessible to the incident scene as possible without interfering with firefighting operations. The following types of tools should be staged ...

The capillary tube-based system employs a set of tiny tubes of fixed length. When a tube is dipped into a source liquid, the tube is filled with liquid via capillary action, then compressed air blows the liquid in the tube into the destination well. Both types of tools can deliver nanoliter volumes with reasonable accuracy and precision. The limitation is that they can only deliver a fixed volume without changes of pin or tube settings. New syringe-type liquid handlers capable of delivering 100 nL or less are now on the market. 

When processing plastics some type of tooling is required. These tools include dies, molds, mandrels, jigs, fixtures, punch dies, perforated forms, etc. for shaping and fabricating products (Chapter 17). 

When processing plastics some type of tooling is usually required. Tools include molds, dies, mandrels, jigs, fixtures, punch dies, perforated forms, etc. The terms for tools are virtually synonymous in the sense that they have some type of female and/or negative cavity into or through which a molten plastic moves usually under heat and pressure or they are used in secondary operations such as cutting dies, stamping sheet dies, etc. These tools fabricate or shape products. In this chapter injection molds and extrusion dies are primarily reviewed because they represent over 95% of all tools made for the plastic industry. This chapter also includes information applicable to other molds and dies used in the other processes some of the other chapters too provide information applicable to their tools. 

The compression zone is located on the back side of the equipment and employs a maximum load force limited by the type of tooling being used. It is of paramount importance to note that, if a load force is applied over the indicated limit, the press unit will not function properly, resulting in premature wear or possible damage to the tooling. The compression set comprises the hopper and feeder system, the die table, the upper and lower compression rollers, the upper and lower turrets, the excess-material scraper, the tablet stripper, the recirculation channel, and the aspiration system.

This section describes a number of examples of the field deployment of a selection of potential monitoring tools for use within the WFD. Three types of tools (on-site based analytical methods, passive samplers and bioassays) are described. Each methodology was assessed by comparing its performance with that of the currently accepted monitoring regime (spot sampling combined with classical chemical analysis). In some cases the emerging methods provided information that was different from that provided by the classical methods. 

Tooling for this type of press is much more expensive and complex than that required for ejection presses. It consists of a complete die set which is removable from the machine as a complete unit. This has the advantage that the tooling is interchangeable between presses. Further advantages lie mainly in its adaptability to the production of complex components. It is also possible to obtain greater accuracy. Compacts can be made on this type of tooling with dimensional tolerances of less than 4x 10 mm. 

The use of Moodle within teacher training course proved to be extremely fruitful and yielded excellent results. For many participants it was the first opportunity to use this type of tool which resulted in creating their independent school platforms. Within the course very interesting materials were prepared which are currently used by teachers in then school work. E-education and E-test platforms provided by the Department of Chemical Education is at the participants disposal. Almost 200 teachers have finished e-learaing course Moodle step by step in Poland. Here are a few comments cited on the discussion forum of the course (Fig. 6) ... 

Simulation requires an enrichment of the work process model by quantitative information of different kind. Examples include the duration of certain activities or the number and type of tools allocated to a certain design task. Such information allows to investigate the time required to accomplish a part of the design process or to study the benefit of employing such tools. Such quantitative data are often hard to get with the desired accuracy in industrial practice. 

The various implants are typically serviced by distinct types of tools, each engineered to provide a solution for a specific segment of the implant application space. Traditionally, these segments have been called high current, medium current, and high energy, and can be characterized mainly by the dose and the energy of implanted ions. 

Unlike, the use of the computer as calculator by the academics of the 1950s, Monsanto s FLOWTRAN simulated chemical processes. However, simulation in 1965 was crude. C.B. Cobb, an engineer who worked on marketing FLOWTRAN to users outside Monsanto, described what that meant for use of the system, Simulators right now are not the type of tools that you ask a question, push a button, and the answer comes out. This is simply not the case. This black box contains a mathematical model and to make it work for you, you have to know what it is about (33). Cobb went on to say that tuning the model required significant experience with both the system and with process design.
