resists and reproduces

Resists and reproduces are key concepts in manufacturing and processing. "Resists" are materials like coatings or films applied to surfaces to prevent or control processes such as etching or deposition; they act as protective barriers or masks. "Reproduces" refers to the ability of a process—like printing or etching—to create accurate duplicates of a design or pattern. Together, these terms relate to the use of resist materials in manufacturing: a resist is applied to protect areas during processing, and the process reproduces the pattern onto a substrate, ensuring precision and repeatability in creating intricate designs or components.
