Intete zitwa hexagonal tot toll, zizwi kandi nk’intete z’ibara ry’agahama, inkere zikwega, n’intete z’ugukwega ubwo nyene, zikoreshwa mu gufatanya ibipande bitandukanye vy’ivyuma n’ibikoresho vyo gukora amatiyo. Bikoreshwa cane mu gukoranya ibintu vy’ubuhinga bw’amashanyarazi n’ivy’ubuhinga nk’ivy’imiduga, ivy’indege, amabarabara y’igariyamoshi, ivyuma, amasanseri, ibikoresho, ibikoresho, ibikoresho, n’ivyo gushaza. Barateguwe kugira ngo bashobore gutorera umuti intege nke z’intete zipfutse ku mapanshi y’ivyuma bitobito n’imirongo y’ivyuma bitobito, nk’impengamiro yo gushonga n’impengamiro yo gukuraho indodo z’imbere. Bikuraho ivy’uko bikenewe gutera indodo z’imbere canke gusuka inkere, bikaba bituma habaho ibiharuro vy’umutekano bitekanye, bikora neza, kandi vyoroshe-
Ica mbere, ibikoresho bikoreshwa mu guhingura - Gushiramwo intete birasuzumwa, harimwo n’intsinga ikoreshwa. Muri rusangi, ubwawe - Gucungera abahinguzi b’intsinga z’intete basaba umugozi wabo ku bahinga b’intsinga zidasanzwe kandi ntibatanga umugozi wabo bwite. Muri iki gihe, turamenyesha umuhinguzi w’intsinga ku bijanye n’ibintu bisabwa, akarorero, ubunini n’ubunini. Iyo umuntu ategetse, ivyo bikoresho bitegerezwa gusuzumwa. Iyo dukeneye umugozi w’icuma, bitegerezwa kuba ivyuma; iyo dukeneye umugozi w’icuma utagira ibara, utegerezwa kuba icuma kitagira ibara. Ubwa nyuma, turasuzuma ivyerekeye, akarorero, ubunini n’ibindi. Kugira ngo turabe ko ivyo dusaba.
Nkako, turasuzuma inzira yose y’uguhingura - Gushiramwo intete. Amaze gukubitwa mu mashini y’intete maze ameze, turasuzuma imice yose y’imiterere yavyo n’ingero zavyo kugira ngo turabe nimba zihuye n’ivyo umukiriya asabwa, canke akarorero katanzwe n’umukiriya, canke ibishushanyo dushushanya bishingiye ku citegererezo c’umukiriya. Inyuma y’isuzuma ry’ibipfunsi, turasuzuma ugutera. Turasuzuma kandi imice yose y’umuntu yikunda -kungirira indodo z’intete kugira ngo turabe nimba zihuye n’ivyo go go/no{o{-go ibipimo, kugira ngo igipimo c’ugugenda kiraryoshe kandi igipimo ca no- kirakomeye.
Inyuma y’aho, bimwe bimwe vyikunda - intete zikozwe mu cuma ca carbone (canke icuma) zisaba gukoresha umuyagankuba mu mabara atandukanye. Ibara ry’ivyo bikoresho rigenwa n’ivyo umukiriya avuga; bamwe basaba gushiramwo ibidukikije, mu gihe abandi banyuzwe n’ugushinga imizi. Igenzura ry’ugucapura ririmwo kandi imice myinshi, harimwo n’ibara ry’ivyo bikoresho n’igihe co gupima umunyu inyuma yo gutera.
