The old mechanical process of constructing tones by cross-hatching is now almost obsolete.
Examplesofcross-hatching
cross-hatching
Penetration of enzymatic agents is limited in eschar and requires either softening by autolysis orcross-hatchingby sharp incision prior to application.

For example, it can identify sequences such as words, dotted lines, orcross-hatching, which are an aligned series of lines or graphic symbols that have the same characteristics.

The abrasive is oscillated or rotated while the workpiece is rotated in the opposite direction; these motions are what causes thecross-hatching.
