The mixing tube is where abrasive mixes with pressurized air before exiting the nozzle to erode material. A CNC motion system provides automated precision control over the machining process.
This document discusses bending methods used with press brakes. It describes three main bending methods: the wiping method, which bends sheet metal from the protruding edge using up-and-down tool movement; the folding method, which uses the bending beam to fold extended parts of the sheet across the bend profile; and the air bending method, which presses the sheet into a V-shaped opening without touching the bottom of the tool. Press brakes are important manufacturing equipment that allow for precision bending of metal sheets into various shapes and profiles.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

Computer Numerically Controlled
Fabric Cutting Machine
2. Computer Numerical Control may be
considered to be a means of operating a
machine through the use of discrete
numerical values fed into the machine ,
where the required ‘input’ technical
information is stored on a kind of input
media such as floppy disk, hard disk, CD
ROM, DVD, USB flash drive, or RAM card etc.
The machine follows a predetermined speeds
necessary to produce a workpiece of the
right shape and size and thus according to
completely predictable results.
3. Easier to program;
Easy storage of existing programs;
Easy to change a program
Avoids human errors
NC machines are safer to operate
Complex geometry is produced as cheaply as
simple ones
Usually generates closer tolerances than
manual machines
4.
5. This methods provides the most accurate
possible cutting fabric , at high speed.
It is a typical computer system having a table
with a cutting surface consisting of nylon bristles
which support the fabric lays but are flexible
enough to permit penetration and movement of
the knife blade which is supported only on the
top. The bristles also allow the passage of air
through the table to create a vacuum, reducing
the height of the lay and holding it in place .
It is ideal for placing notches in a lay and has a
depth adjustment guide to stop you notching too
deeply. It has a depth capacity of 200mm and
selectable temperatures of 300, 400 or 500
degree C.

8. Bristle bed
The bristles are made with a special macro-molecule nylon
material which is soft enough to avoid being cut by the
knife, while at the same time lasting 30% longer than that
of bristles used in other cutters in the industry.
These bristles allow the passage of air through the table to
create a vacuum, reducing the height of lay and holding it
in place.
The bristle surface on the table allows knife blade to
penetrate surface without damage.
9. Bristle cutting surface
automatically conveys
material from spreading
table through cutter and
after cutting is done, the
conveyor takes off cut
panels into bundling area.
The bristles are also denser
than on competing systems,
eliminating the need for
underlay paper on most
fabrics.
GERBER BRISTLE SQUARE® cutting surface
The bristle bed is made of bristle
blocks which are anywhere between
2”x2” to 4”x4”.
10. Vacuum system is required to hold the lay in place and
reduce its height. So, it holds the layers while the knife
is cutting.
There are three types of vacuum systems, depending
upon the manufacturer:
1. TUB VACUUM : Tub suction applies equal amount of
suction overall the cutting area. Integrated vacuum
system holds materials securely in place for effective
and accurate cutting.
11. 2. LOCALIZED VACUUM:
Localized vacuum is used for creating suction only at areas
surrounding the blade and not the entire cutting area. Integrated
"intelligent" zoned vacuum system holds down the lay at cutting
location. Vacuum exhaust stack recycles heated air.
3. PLY SENSING VACUUM:
This is a very efficient and power saving system of creating
vacuum in the cutting area. Amount of vacuum generated depends
upon the number of fabric layers. Once fabric plies are placed on
the cutting table and vacuum generation is started, sensors detect
height of the lay and generate only the amount of vacuum
sufficient for holding the layers. This way energy consumption is
reduced to a large amount in cases where length and of plies is
lesser than the cutting dimensions.
12. A sheet of airtight
polyethylene covers the
top of the ply which
assists the creation of a
vacuum & allows
significant compression of
the lay. It is done in order
to prevent lateral air flow
from both the ends.
The re-sealer is attached
to the cutting beam at a
particular angle and does
not go up or down at the
beam.
13. Role of perforated paper
Before transferring the fabric plies on
the cutting table , a sheet of perforated
paper is spread. This paper is laid so
that the lay can be moved on the
cutting table without any distortion in
the lay. This paper is perforated to
enable vacuum creation on the cutting
area for compressing the lay.
Role of laying marker
Marker is laid on the top ply to help in
the process of bundling after cutting.
Marker laid helps in the identification
of bundles of pieces by their size, style
and other specific details.
Perforated paper
14. Order of cutting parts
If there is a small part between two
large parts, then it must be cut prior
to either of the big parts in order to
prevent any loss of vacuum created by
cut lines and thus a support wall helps
in getting better quality.
Common line cutting
There are many common lines in the
marker and CNC can’t see the whole
marker as it only deals with one piece
at a time. So a gap of 1/8 th of an inch
is added to avoid quality problems. But
it leads to fabric wastage and time
loss.
15. The time interval of blade sharpening is
adjustable according to the variation of
fabric textures, allowing the blades to last
longer after each cut.
The Knife Control Plate has anti-static
properties - unique to the cutter - which
means that all the consumable materials
need no separate anti-static treatment.
The Grinding Stones are made with diamond
powder, increasing the life of the stones by
wearing down at a slower rate.
16. Sealed Bristle Vacuum Box prevents air escape
eliminating unnecessary waste of power from the
vacuum pump.
Vacuum strength can be set at seven different
levels, maintaining the optimum suction power
depending on materials and number of layers
being cut. Eliminates the need to operate the
vacuum at maximum capacity if not needed.
Plastic Film re-covers the fabric simultaneously
while cutting to prevent the air leaking from the
gaps between the cut pieces.
17. Cutting speed varies from one fabric to the other.
For densely woven fabrics (like denim), the speed required
for cutting is more and vice versa.
Knits can be cut at an average speed of 2,500 rpm while 14
oz. denim may require 7500 rpm to cut it.
Some cutters also have a liquid silicon system with cooling
device set up to at the top of the knife to make sure that
the heat is not generated and if it does the heat never
reaches the top of the knife.
Operators can easily adjust cut speed and knife speed
according to the type of material being cut to maximize
throughput.
Overall speed of cutting fabric is generally 5 to 12 m/min.

G Code
The "instructions" read by CNC machines are usually a human
readable format called G-Code. The machine is set up with a base
unit, like inch or mm, and a command of G01 X500 Y200 Z100 on a
metric mm setup tells the machine it needs to move.
Example: 500 units on the X axis and 200 units on the Y axis and 100
on z axis.
19. Programming consists of a series of instructions in form of letter
codes.
Preparatory Codes:
G codes-Initial machining setup and establishing operating
conditions
N codes-specify program line number to be executed by the
MCU
Axis Codes: X,Y,Z -Used to specify motion of the slide along X,
Y, Z direction

21. Flexibility of operation is improved, as is the ability to produce
complex shapes with good dimensional accuracy, repeatability,
reduced scrap loss, and high production rates.
Machine adjustments are easy to make with microcomputers.
More operations can be performed with each setup, and less
lead time for setup and machining is required compared to
conventional methods.
Design changes are facilitated, and inventory is reduced.
Programs can be prepared rapidly and can be recalled at any
time utilizing microprocessors. Less paperwork is involved.
Faster prototype production is possible.
Required operator skill is less than that for a qualified
machinist, and the operator has more time to attend to other
tasks in the work area.
22. Volume of production is very high.
Less paper work, faster prototype production,
reduction in lead times.
Improved quality and accuracy of
manufactured parts
Stabilized manufacturing costs.
CNC machines can be updated by improving the
software used to drive the machines.
