The former two also include advances in the respective machine tools.MetalcuttingPC Rules. To use a personal computer (PC) to communicate with the computer numericalcontrol (CNC) system of the machine is now standard practice in most new machine tools. ThePC-CNC interface is effective even with older CNC machines. The newer machines are moreintelligent and capable of self-diagnosis. They incorporate 64-bit processors to boostprogramming and information transfers to

Sometimes overlooked and underappreciated, a power plant condenser can make orbreak the efficiency and power delivery goals. Understanding how important a role thecondenser plays is a good step toward greater energy conservation awareness. The teamconducted a parametric study to analytically investigate improvements
