range (usually Hertz) over which a system operates.

Base speed is the manufacturer's nameplate rating where the motor will develop rated power at rated load and voltage. With dc drives, it is commonly the point where full armature voltage is applied with full-rated field excitation. With ac systems, it is commonly the point where 60Hz is applied to the induction motor.

the technique of manufacturing parts or finished goods in groups, lots, or batches in which each part or finished good in the batch is identical.

refers to the lot size of identical parts produced in a factory. Batch production is the method adopted when the required product volumes are not adequate to permit continuous production of one product on dedicated machines.

a measure of the signalling speed in a digital communication system.

An improvement process in which a company or organization compares its performance against best-in-class companies or organizations, determines how those companies or organizations achieved their performance levels, and uses the information to improve its own performance. The subjects that can be benchmarked include strategies, products/programs/services, operations, processes and procedures.

Refers to base 2 numbering system, in which the only allowable digits are 0 and 1. Pertaining to a condition that has only two possible values or states.
