The habit is often started by boredom. The front portions of the incisor teeth gradually become rounded. Also called cribbing. There are various devices designed to counter the habit. The crib strap consists simply of a thick leather shield which fits into the gullet and is held in position by an adjustable strap which passes round the nose. 1, record 1, English, - crib%20strap

Valve gating. This type of gate is where a pin is held in the gate or channel by spring tension and as the plunger comes forward, it compresses the plastic in the runner. When this pressure build-up is sufficient to overcome the spring tension, the pin is then pushed back(pulled) and the fast decompression of the plastic fills the cavity at extremely high speed. 2, record 3, English, - valve%20gating
