What Is a Slot?
A slot is an opening or groove in something that allows something to be inserted. A slot can be found in doorways, windows, and other objects that require a small hole. You can also use the word to refer to a particular position on a computer or video screen. For example, a “slot” could be the spot where you click to start a new game. A slot can also refer to a specific type of hardware component such as a USB port or Ethernet connector.
A pay table is an essential guide that explains how winning combinations payout on a slot machine. This information helps players decode the most lucrative symbols and understand other key concepts such as scatters and wilds that can increase a payout or trigger bonus features. While pay tables used to be prominently displayed on a machine’s exterior, today they are typically integrated into digital screens, especially for online and video slots.
A T-slot table is a work surface for your universal testing system that offers a convenient way to secure components and structures for performing tensile, compression, and flexural tests. The table mounts to the base of your machine and is equipped with T-slots that run front-to-back, side-to-side, and diagonally. Commercially available T-slot nuts are slid into the inverted T-slot of the table and then bolted on to secure the desired accessories. This allows you to secure components that are too large for standard Instron grips and text fixtures while allowing you to perform repeated or batch testing of materials.
