Clues

  • A refinement of JIT in which parts are not only delivered at the right time and right place but are also in sequence to match the flow of a product through the assembly line. (4, 2, 4, 8)
  • A TFT screen is basically a liquid crystal display that has a transistor for each pixel. This allows for rapid responses on screen to inputs. Laptops and norebooks have TFT screens and they are becoming popular for desktop computers. (4, 4, 10)
  • Also known as a chip - a small electronic device made out of a chip of semi-conductor material. These devices contain electronic circuits in which there may be thousands of transistors. (11, 7)
  • Gases such as CO2 and Methane. These are produced by farm animals and also by burning fossil fuels. (10, 5)
  • Modern-day industrial practice of designing in one paart of the worls and manufacturing the product in another where materials and labour costs may be cheaper. (6, 13)
  • Robots that use sensors to detect faults, changes in their immediate environment and diagnose problems. (6, 10)
  • Rough sketches of a design idea (9, 8)
  • The use of CNC machines that create 3D objects using lasers to solidify liquid polymers, known as stereo-lithography. (5, 11)
  • the use of software that can convert CAD drawings into CNC machining data (8, 5, 6)
  • this refers to the number of joints a robot arm has and each direction a robot or part of it can move, determining how flexible the robot is. (7, 2, 7)
