  "term": "Spin",
  "field": "Industrial and trades",
  "definition": "To rotate an object rapidly around its own axis, or the resulting rotational motion itself. In manufacturing, this action is applied in processes like spin welding, where friction from high-speed rotation generates heat to join plastic parts, and spin coating, which uses centrifugal force to create a thin, uniform layer of material. The rotational speed, measured in revolutions per minute (RPM), is a primary process parameter controlled to achieve desired results.",
