Topic: Walker (tool)


  
  Walker (tool) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A walker is a tool for slightly disabled people who need to lean on something to maintain balance or stability while walking.
Speakers of British English often call a walker a "Zimmer Frame." That term is a trademark of Zimmer, Inc., a manufacturer of walkers and joint replacement parts.
Walkers work by supporting a baby's weight and keeping them upright while allowing them to stand on their toes to move the device along the floor.

 Modern Machine Shop: Keeping accuracy within reach: part quality is ... @ HighBeam Research   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
Walker, machine tools are often designed and manufactured to have a "sweet spot" in their work envelope where they have the greatest accuracy.
Walker contends that machine tools need to be hand-scraped with fitted components, and hysteresis must also be controlled by tuning servos and manipulating the velocity and positional data for smooth motion and good control of the machine masses that are being moved around in space.
Walker summarizes it, only machine tools designed and built with the precision to achieve high volumetric accuracy can hold tight tolerances regardless of where the cutting tool goes within the envelope.

 Walker conviction gives feds new tool | ajc.com   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
Walker was also convicted this month of stealing from a charity he set up, of bilking his newspaper's advertisers, of strong-arming Atlanta's Grady Memorial Hospital into using his personnel services business, and of misrepresenting his ownership in companies doing business with a state entity, the Medical College of Georgia.
Walker's lawyers said the woman and his two nieces did campaign work and that the newspaper money went for advertising.
As of late last year, Walker was spending thousands of dollars on advertising in his newspaper, the Augusta Focus; paid another company in his building $10,000 for radio commercials; and sent $13,000 to his personnel company, apparently for staffing.

 Abiel F. Walker, planemaker of Alna, Maine
Interestingly enough, this plane is not signed with Walker's initials, raising the possibility that it was added to his tool kit late in his career or after his death, circa 1875.
His small tool collection is significant in illustrating the activities of a small noncommercial planemaker who built tools for his own use as well as possibly for the use of others in the local community, and who also made practical use of planes that obviously predate his active years.
The appearance of factory made tools manufactured after 1840 in Walker's tool kit is symptomatic of the rapid changes in technology and in social and mercantile relationships that characterized the period before the Civil War.

 Mullins v. Walker Tool & Manufacturing - Georgia Personal Injury Lawyers

Therefore, Walker Tool was not entitled to summary judgment on Mullins's complaint.

Walker's message is one of hope, that all people might live equally and peaceably in our shared world.

 Feature Article - Keeping Accuracy Within Reach - 03/05
For a machine tool to achieve a high level of volumetric accuracy, the way system must be constructed for straight axis movement with minimum pitch, yaw and roll.
Also, when heavily massed machine tool components are placed together during assembly—for example, when a four-ton column is placed on the machine's bed—the column compresses and bends the bed.
Hand scraping of machine tool components such as this spindle nose is expensive and time consuming, but considered essential to the construction of customized, high-precision machine tools.
