A prototype design is a product that is designed and built to test a new design. The item is usually made in a special lab or shop. The prototype is used to correct mistakes and make it more user friendly. It is also used to make the tooling and equipment needed to produce it in large quantities. The final product will be made in large quantities.

fixed assets are those assets used for more than one fiscal year while current assets only used for one fiscal year.
What Presentation and analysis of data about payroll system?
One of the presentation and analysis data that a payroll system can provide includes the job costing charges (in case one person does multiple jobs to be billed differently). Data on timeliness and absenteeism can be received from a payroll system.
Why cast iron is called cast iron?
Firstly, cast iron is made by casting process, or called as casting method, which is a type of metal fabrication method. You can compare it with forging, stamping, welding methods.
Secondly, the main raw material for producing cast iron is pig iron. I think this is a reason the name. Although cast steel is also produced by pig iron, but cast steel has lower content of carbon element. So, scientifically speaking, if the carbon content is upper 2%, then it should be called as cast iron, but if lower than 2%, then it should be called as cast steel.
How does a rotary broach make a hexagonal hole?
You can find great videos on how the rotary broaching process works at Polygon Solutions website.
Rotary Broaching, also known as Wobble Broaching, is unlike the conventional broaching method. The conventional method has a sequence of polygon forms that increase in size and are pushed through a hole until the desired form size is achieved. Rotary Broaching can achieve this in one pass by cutting the full form, one corner at a time, without the need for a secondary operation. This works exceptionally well on Horizontal or Vertical Spindle Machines such as Lathes, Mills, etc.
Rotary Broaching is a precision method for producing internal polygon forms at an extremely fast rate. The entire operation can be completed within seconds and can produce forms to 0.0005" accuracy or better. This advanced engineering has caused Rotary Broaching to become increasingly popular; especially in the medical, automotive, aerospace and plumbing industries.
There are only two necessary components that achieve the Rotary Broaching process: 1) A Rotary Broach Tool Holder 2) Rotary Broach. The principle that makes this process work is the 1° angle of the cutting tool to the centerline of the work piece. This causes the Rotary Broach to shear into the work piece, with a chisel or scalloping effect, as the broach is fed into the part to the depth required. The Rotary Broach Tool Holder has a live spindle that holds the broaching tool, allowing the spindle to spin freely within the Tool Holder. It is then driven by contact with the rotating work piece. Our Rotary Broach Tool Holders are adjustment-free so there is minimal setup required and include such features as sealed bearings which require no routine maintenance and a pressure relief hole that allows air and fluid to freely escape.
With Rotary Broaching it is possible to broach such forms as:
⊕ Hexagon
⊕ Square
⊕ Torx
⊕ Serration
⊕ Keyway
⊕ Double Square
⊕ Double D
⊕ Double Hex
⊕ Involute
⊕ Spline
⊕ Spur Gear
⊕ J500
⊕ Other Polygon Forms
The two most common forms are hexagons and squares. Standard broach tools are made from M-2 High Speed Steel, but may also be produced from harder material such as M-42, PM T-15 or PM M-4 HSS. Coatings such as Titanium Nitride, Titanium Carbo-Nitride or Titanium Aluminum-Nitride can be added to produce additional strength, longevity and durability.
These forms can be broached in aluminum, brass, steel, titanium,
plastic and other materials at a depth of up to 2 times the diameter
of the broach.
Rotary Broaching is the most superior method used to get a polygon
form into the end of a part without the need for a secondary operation.

I believe you are asking if you can assume that all tablets in a production run are acceptable if your standard deviation is low. My answer to that is that you can assume they are all acceptable, providing that the tablet press was not stopped during the run and that the granulation was a very good blend with no interruption in the flow of the material to the press.
Lean Production is a well consolidated style of production, mostly related to the Manufacturing Industry.
Lean Production is often called Lean Manufacturing.
In a nutshell:
Lean Production is "lean" because it has no "fat", where fat is "waste". Therefore Lean Production is synonymous with "waste-less" production.
Generally, in a Lean Production Line:
- materials flow continuously (Continuous Flow) from Processing Station to Procession Stations
- with little/no time and space gap in between processing stations
- value is added to materials at all Processing Stations
- with minimal/no waste (idling, parking, moving, checking, counting, etc.) between processing stations
- with minimal/no waste in the operation being performed at each Processing Station
- until the final product is ready with no defects
What are the functions by the gates in casting process?
Gate is the portion of the runner through which the molten metal enters the mold cavity. Depending on application, many types of gates are used in casting design. Parting gate is commonly used. The metal enters the mould at the parting plane when part of the casting is in the cope and part in the drag. Gate is specially, the point at which molten metal enters the casting cavity. A mould cavity must be filled with clean metal in a controlled manner to ensure smooth, uniform and complete filling, for the casting to be free of discontinuities, solid inclusions and voids. This can be achieved by a well-designed gating system. The first step involves selecting the type of gating system and the layout of gating channels, the orientation and position of sprue, runner and ingate. The most critical design decision is the ideal filling time, based on which the gating channels are designed.
Pig iron is the intermediate product of smelting iron ore with a high-carbon fuel such as coke, usually with limestone as a flux. Charcoal andanthracite have also been used as fuel. Pig iron has a very high carbon content, typically 3.5-4.5%, which makes it very brittle and not useful directly as a material except for limited applications.
The traditional shape of the molds used for these ingots was a branching structure formed in sand, with many individual ingots at right angles to a central channel or runner. Such a configuration is similar in appearance to a litter of piglets suckling on a sow.
When the metal had cooled and hardened, the smaller ingots (the pigs) were simply broken from the much thinner runner (the sow), hence the name pig iron. As pig iron is intended for remelting, the uneven size of the ingots and inclusion of small amounts of sand was insignificant compared to the ease of casting and of handling.
Other Answers:
Pig iron is called pig iron because due to it shape and molds. When the iron come out from its mold due to it contain % of carbon and it look black pigs, when it come out of it mold it look like pigs standing in a group so it is called pig iron.
____________________
Definition of Pig Iron: The term was derived from the method of casting the bars of iron in depressions or moulds formed in the sand floor adjacent to a furnace. These were connected to a runner (known as a sow) and when filled with metal the runner and the numerous smaller moulds were supposed to resemble a litter of suckling pigs, hence the term pig iron.

Wrought Iron is Pig Iron.
____________________
It was Abraham Darby II (1711-63) who improved the quality of coke-smelted pig iron and made it suitable for forging into wrought iron. Wrought iron was the result of forging pig iron by continued hammering and reheating in order to produce a material which was supple enough to be made into tools and implements.
iron ore.
