Development of a High Precision Through-feed Grinder.

open access: yesJournal of the Japan Society for Precision Engineering, 1998
Hard and brittle thin-plate materials used in fabricating electronic components such as filters and oscillators have conventionally been subjected to a lapping process in order to achieve the required thickness within 1 μm. The lapping process, however, requires an operator's high level of skill; in addition, it is difficult to conduct automatic ...

Near-Infrared Reflectance Spectroscopy in Precision Feed Formulation

open access: yesJournal of Applied Poultry Research, 1997
Abstract Because of the problems inherent in determining the digestible amino acid content of batches of feedstuffs used for the formulation of feeds, feed manufactures routinely over-formulate for digestible amino acids. A producer wishing to assure that no more than 20% of the batches of feed produced are nutritionally inadequate must over ...
