  2. Instrument mechanic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Instrument_mechanic

    Instrument mechanics in engineering are tradesmen who specialize in installing, troubleshooting, and repairing instrumentation, automation and control systems.The term "Instrument Mechanic" came about because it was a combination of light mechanical and specialised instrumentation skills.

  3. Chart recorder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chart_recorder

    The paper chart is driven past the pen at a steady rate by a clockwork or electrical drive mechanism. One common method is to use a miniature synchronous motor which turns at a constant speed related to the power frequency; a gear-train is used to propel the paper. Industrial strip-chart recorders may have two-speed gear trains that allow a ...

    Small variable-frequency drive Chassis of above VFD (cover removed). A variable-frequency drive (VFD, or adjustable-frequency drive, adjustable-speed drive, variable-speed drive, AC drive, micro drive, inverter drive, variable voltage variable frequency drive, or drive) is a type of AC motor drive (system incorporating a motor) that controls speed and torque by varying the frequency of the ...

  9. Comb drive - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comb_drive

    Comb-drives are microelectromechanical actuators, often used as linear actuators, which utilize electrostatic forces that act between two electrically conductive combs. Comb drive actuators typically operate at the micro- or nanometer scale and are generally manufactured by bulk micromachining or surface micromachining a silicon wafer substrate.
