What's the difference between hotpress and mechanical?
Hotpress
Definition:
(v. t.) To apply to, in conjunction with mechanical pressure, for the purpose of giving a smooth and glosay surface, or to express oil, etc.; as, to hotpress paper, linen, etc.
Example Sentences:
Mechanical
Definition:
(a.) Pertaining to, governed by, or in accordance with, mechanics, or the laws of motion; pertaining to the quantitative relations of force and matter, as distinguished from mental, vital, chemical, etc.; as, mechanical principles; a mechanical theory; mechanical deposits.
(a.) Of or pertaining to a machine or to machinery or tools; made or formed by a machine or with tools; as, mechanical precision; mechanical products.
(a.) Done as if by a machine; uninfluenced by will or emotion; proceeding automatically, or by habit, without special intention or reflection; as, mechanical singing; mechanical verses; mechanical service.
(a.) Made and operated by interaction of forces without a directing intelligence; as, a mechanical universe.
(a.) Obtained by trial, by measurements, etc.; approximate; empirical. See the 2d Note under Geometric.
