Toledo
Castile-La Mancha, Spain. Situated to the south of Madrid, the
walled city is set on a hill above a river, which gives spectacular views
over the surrounding countryside.
Toledo is a Unesco world heritage site because of its many
monuments and its cultural history. There are many incredible
examples of buildings that have survived from medieval times.
It has what is believed to be one of Spain’s finest Gothic
Cathedral. The internal and exterior carving by the monumental
masons is spectacular and intricate.
We stayed in a small hotel just inside the town. Its hillside site
proved to be hard on the legs, but well worth the walk to the top to
appreciate the views. It is a very busy tourist attraction but I would
recommend it as an interesting place to visit.
The town draws a lot on the character of Don Quixote from the 1605
novel by Miguel de Cervantes, with statues and artwork depicting
him placed at various points around the town.

On Demand Demo - #3 Tooling Master Module
The tool master is the central repository for all things related to the production of a part through the use of reusable components such as patterns, core boxes, permanent molds, investment casting molds, and such things as trim dies, dead-heads, and rider or adapter plates.
Tooling is all about the tracking the life of the tooling, inspecting, controlling the movements, cost of the tooling including on-going costs through movement and repairs, revisions, and CAR’s or Problems.
With the introduction of the maintenance management equipment module several years ago, calibration and other quality instruments are typically now defined within that module.
