A computer numerically controlled(CNC) programmer programs the machines that cut, shape, and finish materials such as metals, plastics, or wood into usable components. The CNC programmer must study the drawings and blueprints of the components that need to be manufactured and determine which machines will be required, what they will need to do, and the order in which the work needs to be done. Often, CNC programmers are also asked to estimate how long the job will take. 2, record 3, English, - computer%20numerical%20control%20programmer

The Automated Tape Laying(ATL) process is an established process currently used to manufacture, from composite filament tapes, primary aircraft structural components such as critically loaded wing skin panels and tail surfaces. Automated tape laying is performed using a purpose built, multi-axis, numerically controlled, machine tool system, i. e. essentially such machines are gantry type robots... The machine is used to lay uni-directional carbon fibre tape onto a pre-shaped tool surface, which represents the shape of the finished component. Tools normally consist of a combination of flats, complex curves and build-up sections the ramp angles of which can vary over short distances. 3, record 9, English, - automated%20tape%20laying

Several chemical definitions relate to welding. One is known as burning or oxidation. This takes place when any substance combines with oxygen usually at high temperatures. An example of this is the combining of acetylene with oxygen. This produces carbon dioxide plus water plus a large amount of heat.
