remache

a permanent fastener with a head on one end and a deformable shaft that forms a second head when joining materials together

What is a "rivet"?

A rivet is a small, cylindrical fastening device used to join two or more materials together. It consists of a smooth shaft and a head at one end. After the rivet is inserted into a hole in the materials, the shaft is deformed, creating a second head that holds the materials tightly together. This deformation ensures a strong, permanent bond between the materials. Rivets are commonly used in construction, manufacturing, and aerospace due to their durability and ability to withstand high stress, especially when welding or screws are not ideal.

torno

What is a "lathe"?

A lathe is a machine tool used to shape and cut materials, typically metal, wood, or plastic, by rotating them against a cutting tool. As the material spins on the lathe, the cutting tool is applied to remove material and create smooth, precise shapes, such as cylindrical or conical surfaces. Lathes are commonly used in metalworking, woodworking, and manufacturing to create parts like shafts, screws, or furniture legs. They come in various sizes, from small benchtop models to large industrial machines, and are essential for tasks requiring high precision and detailed work.

Who is a "CAD technician"?

A CAD technician is a professional who uses computer software to create detailed technical drawings and plans. These drawings are often used in fields like architecture, engineering, and construction. CAD technicians work closely with engineers or designers to convert ideas into precise digital designs that can be used for building or manufacturing. They are skilled in using CAD software to draw, modify, and finalize designs, ensuring they meet standards and specifications. Their work is essential for making sure projects are carried out accurately and efficiently.
