Science,Teamed With Skill, Assures
INLAND GtUALITY STEEL
YERY heat of Inland Steel is the product
of science teamed with the skill of expert
steelmakers. Inland research is constantly seeking better methods for producing special steel,
so that when an Inland customer makes known
his needs, Inland already knows the best method
to produce the steel, its chemical and physical
characteristics, and how it will perform during
fabrication and in service.
eąuipment builders, have selected and superyised the construction of modern blast furnaces,
open hearths, rolling mills and vital auxiliary
eąuipment. Years of research and development
are back of the extensive laboratory apparatus
and the many special instruments used with
Inland mili eąuipment for controlling pig iron
and steel production, ingot heating, and the
ąuality of products from rolling mills.
High ąuality ore, coal and limestone are scientifically blended and measured. Inland engineers,
working with America’s leading consultants and
All of this vast background of scientific development, teamed willi Inland expert steelmakers, as­
sures maxiinum production of Inland Quality Steel.

A ch e so n 's m anufacturing ideas extended its
use throughout m eta lw o rking industries, m ak­
ing low -cost, high-quality products possible
B y FB A N C IS D. BOWMAN
Advertising M anager, The Carborundum Co.
■ MARCH, 1941, m a rk s th e flftieth
an n iv ersary of an invention w hich
directly and indirectly has been of
g re a t im p o rtan ce to th e m etalw o rk ­
ing industries.
In M arch of 1891 D r. E dw ard G.
A cheson first m ade a new product,
w hich is n o t found in n a tu rę —Sili­
con carbide, an abrasive w hich is
n e x t to th e diam ond in hardness.
U ntil then, g rin d in g w heels had
been m ade of sandstone, of corundum , o r em ery —w hich is corundum
w ith a v ary in g am o u n t of im purities. T hose w heels could do a passable job of sh a rp e n in g ord in ary
tool steels, b u t th e y w ere p ractically
useless w hen it cam e to sh arp en in g
th e very hard, high-speed steels th a t
w ere th en com ing into use.
T hey w ere of no use as m a te ria ł
rem oving tools on a production
basis. T he “g rin d in g ” of a m etal
product w as actu ally m erely a polishing process, w hich, w hile it improved th e ap p earan ce of th e p a rt,
u su ally glossed over su rface imperfections. N o r w as it possible, w ith
them , to get an y th in g approaching
precision of dim ension o r shape.
In th e course of experim ents to
d eterm ine th e effect of fu sin g clay
w ith coke, D r. A cheson found th a t
he had produced a m in u tę ą u a n tity
of h a rd sh a rp crystals. H is experim en ts had been m ade w ith a
p lu m b er’s solder pot th ro u g h w hich
a
heavy
c u rre n t w as passed.
H e built a la rg e r furnace, w ith
w hich h e w as able to produce a
few c a ra ts of the crystals. He
found th a t th ey would not only
scratch glass, b u t th a t th ey would
lap diam onds. T he first cry sta ls w ere
sold to gem polishers a t $880 a
pound.
A t first he th o u g h t he had pro­
duced a com pound of carbon and
corundum —a n a tu ra l a lu m in u m oxide—so he called th e substance “Carb orundum .” S u b seąu en t chem ical
analysis show ed th a t th e substance
w as Silicon carbide, a new chem ical
com pound. The coined nam e “C ar­
b o ru n d u m ” w as la te r applied as a
trad e-m ark to products of T he C ar­
borundum Co., which developed as
a re s u lt of his discovery.
H e triedj to get the established
m a n u fa c tu re rs of wheels to use his
Silicon carbide in place of the nat­
u ra l em ery, b u t they believed successful w heels could not be made
w ith it.
So he began to make
w heels—thousands of them, with
his own hands, as he states in his
autobiography.
A cheson’s experim ents ar.d his
early m a n u fa etu re of Carborundum
w ere carried on in a smali plant
in M onongahela City, Pa. In Au­
gust, 1891, T he Carborundum Co.
w as incorporated in Pennsylvania,
w ith $150,000 capital stock. Oneth ird of th e stock w ent to stockholders of th e M onongahela Electric
L ig h t Co., fo r services rendered to
T he C arborundum Co.
In 1895 Acheson was impressed
by th e low cost of power at the new
N ia g a ra F alls development and proposed to his board of directors that
th ey m ove th e company there. At
th a t tim e, largely because of the
high cost of pow er a t Monongahela,
th e cost of producing Carborundum
w as so high th a t only about half the
am o u n t of th e p lan t’s capacity could
be sold. As Acheson wrote: “In
view of th is condition my Niagara
F a lls schem e w as too much for the
conservative directors, and they resigned and le ft th e room.”
He organized a new board and
w en t to N ia g ara Falls. The new
p lan t sta rte d in the fali of 1895. It
w as th e second company to sign
pow er contracts w ith the Niagara
F alls P ow er Co., first being the
P ittsb u rg h R eduction Co., now the
A lum inum Co. of America.
In 1906 th e com pany built a plant
a t D usseldorf, G erm any; in 1913 one
a t M anchester, England. The plant
a t N iag ara Falls, Ont., was built dur­
ing 1916 and 1917, and the o n e at
S haw inigan Falls, Quebec, during
1917 and 1918.
T he com pany’s first works man­
a g e r w as F ra n k J. Tone, who has
been p resid en t since 1919.
A few y ea rs a fte r Dr. Acheson
discovered Silicon carbide, Charles
B. Jacobs invented a process for
m a n u fac tu rin g alum inum oxide in
th e electric furnace. Silicon carbide
is hard, sh arp and brittle. Alumi-

num oxide is not so hard , b u t tougher. Both are m an u factu red by T he
Carborundum Co. B etw een th em
they provide a ra n g ę of abrasive
ąudities which m eet all grinding,
polishing and lapping re ą u ire m e n ts
of all types of m aterials.
Modern m an u factu red abrasiv es
have affected the steel in d u stry di­
rectly by reducing costs and by improving ąuality of products, th u s in ­
creasing their consum ption. T he
use of grinding w heels fo r grin d in g
out defects in ingots, slabs an d bil­
lets not only im proves th e ą u a lity
of the finished product, b u t is cheaper than the old m ethods.
The grinding of rolls, som e of th em
to an ultra-finish w hose rou g h n ess
is measured by a few m illionths of
an inch, makes possible th e produc­
tion of sheets and strip of such su r­
face perfection th a t th ey can be
used for products w hich re ą u ire a
fine finish, w ithout polishing.
But the use of grinding by ind u s­
tries which buy th e ir ra w m a te ria ls
from steel mills, h as h ad an even
greater influence in increasing con­
sumption of steel.
Mass production of steel products
—for example, th e autom obile—depends upon the ability to produce,
cheaply, parts to such close to le r­
ances and of such fine su rface
ąualities th at they a re com pletely
interchangeable. T his can be done
cheaply only by grinding. So, to
the extent th a t g rinding h as m ade
possible mass production, and conseąuently expanded
p urchasing,
through better ą u a lity a t low er
cost, the steel and o th e r m etalw o rk ­
ing industries have benefited.

F rom re p o rts to date from m ajo r
in d u strial sta te s it is found th a t
m ore th a n 66 2/3 per cent of the
m a n u fa c tu rers re p o rtin g do not have
defense contracts, nor are they subcontractors. A bout 10 p er cent are
p rim a ry co n tracto rs; approxim ately
20 p er cent sub-contractors. Of the
66 2/3 per cent who are not making
defense goods and who have offered
th e ir services fo r th a t purpose, about
half believe they have the type of
m achinery th a t may be converted
or applied to defense produetion.
The first 50 returns from the
M ichigan ąuestionnaire, random selections, revealed four primary con­
tractors, 11 sub-contractors and 34
not having defense contracts but,
in m ost cases, willing to abandon
dom estic produetion to make de­
fense eąuipm ent. Thus 68 per cent
w ere “standing by” for defense or­
ders. The sam e 50 Michigan re­
tu rn s revealed as available 47S ma­
chinę tools of wide variety and 146
o th er types of machinery ranging
from wood-working to wire-drawing eąuipm ent.
The governors of Louisiana, Col­
orado, M ichigan, Oregon, Kansas and
Iow a are only a few of those spon­
soring state-w ide co-operation with
active local communities seeking
to keep rep o rts up to date. The
P en n sylvania S tate Department of
Com m erce has taken the experience
of York, Pa., where “community
pooling” originated ( S t e e l , Feb.
17, p. 44) and organized similar pools
in 35 o th er sm ali cities.

■ One of the most p iliable stories of modern times is that of France
during the present w ar. Believed by her citizens, her industrialists and
her allies to be strong, w ell prepared and organized, the trials of w ar
and invasion revealed her to be a country w oefully disorganized and ill
prepared. That the m istakes of France m ay be avoided. S T E E L presents
M. Jaudoin's account of what the French learned "too late".
The author says: "W e are undergoing a great revolution. The
time of free exchange and liberty of management is over. We are
going beyond the planned economy; we are getting nearer to a totalitarian
organization." Nevertheless, the nation, working under tremendous
difficulties, is attempting to organize its trade and its industry and is
trying to solve its problems as best it can.
M. Jaudoin's article w as written and dispatched in time for S T E E I/S
Yearbook of Industry, published Jan. 6. Like other letters from Europę,
it w as intercepted, and after long delay in a censor's office reached the
United States late in February.

M oreover, th e new law s th a t a re

th e difference betw een o u tp u t and

supplied by B elgium and H olland.

nag e expected. C onseąuently, F ra n ce
w as obliged to bu rn the la rg e st p a rt
of its em ergency reserves, accum ulated before th e w ar.
T he situ atio n w as difficult fo r
iron and steel p lan ts as th e ir coke
supply w as not alw ays sufficient.
Som e to nnage of coke w as delivered
by B elgium in exchange fo r iron
ore. F o rtu n a te ly th is exchange w as
alw ays possible as th e ex tractio n of
ore in th e B riey district did n o t decrease.
Scrap w as not lacking. All over
th e co untry th e collection of scrap
w as organized and re su lts w ere sa t­
isfactory.
Old stoves, pieces of
steel, horseshoes, tin p late boxes,
and sim ila r item s w ere heaped in
th e ra ilw a y stations.
F o r m an y o th er things, how ever,
it w as n ecessary to im provise in th e
m a tte r of steel produetion. M ost
F ren ch m en th o u g h t th e in d u strial

b u t it w as n o t so. R ationing of the

principle, th e m inister of armament
th ro u g h his departm ents fixed these
priorities, but it soon appeared his
choice w as not w hat it should have
been, and heavy tonnages piled up
in th e y ard s of plants not yet com­

th e num erous branches of the ad­

Nevertheless, a fte r M ay 20, th e
abandonment of a la rg e p a rt of the

cent. All shops in th e A rdennes
that specialized in th e m a n u fa c tu re
of miscellaneous forg ed and cast
iron articles disappeared and w ere
not replaced. Belgium , fo r a long
time an im portant su p p lier of fin­
ished steel products, ceased its de­
liyeries.
More serious w as th e invasion of
the coal district in th e d ep artm en ts
of the north and Pas-de-Calais.
The economic situ atio n w as al­
ready alarm ing; F ra n c e w as re ­
ąuired to buy abroad m ost p ro d u cts
indispensable for w a r m anufactures. An effort w as m ade to reorganize w hat rem ained of th e
French industry, b u t th e d read fu l
rush of the G erm an arm y le ft only
one course open.
The arm istice on Ju n e 25 ci'eated
a new state of affairs in dividing th e
country into different zones:
1. First, L orraine and A lsace returned to the Reich, and th e nu-
m erous m etallurgical industries of
these regions w ere cut off from the
F ren ch produetion. T heir capacity
is estim ated a t 2,000,000 tons of
steel and th a t increased the Ger­
m an facilities by the sam e am ount.
T he coal m ines of S arre and Moselle,
and iron m ines of the Briey district
a re no longer French.
2.
T he re st of the country was
divided in to 'th re e p arts: (a) The unoccupied zone; (b) the zone occupied
by G erm an troops; (c) the occupied
and reserved zone. The la tte r is
considered w ar territo ry , conse­
ą u e n tly special authorization is nec­
e ssary either to live in or go into
th is district.
A bout 25,000 tons of steel per
m onth is m ade in the unoccupied
zone. Consum ption is about 60,000
tons. T herefore, to counterbalance
th is deficiency every plant in this
zone, w hich usually m anufactured
alloy and tool steels, turned to pro­
ducing la rg e st possible tonnage of

w ere closed have re-started.

district. The Societe N orm ande de
M etallurgie w hich used im ported
coal is now unable to obtain it. The
o thers a re producing very little, and
they sell in th eir own neighborhoods.
This m eans th a t in this zone steel
pi'oduction is m ore deficient th a n in
the unoccupied zone, and th a t very
soon steel will not be available.
Some plants in the n o rth e rn dis­
trict of the occupied b u t reserved
zone are w orking. T his is tru e of

w as before the w ar, and is tak en
by local w orks. T his zone is in the
best position as reg ard s to supplies.
In generał, iron and steel production is very low. T his is not because
plants have been destroyed; dam age
is not very serious and m ost of it
has been repaired. Coke is scarce

A tra n sfo rm a tio n of th e F ren ch
econom y w as doubtless indispensable. Since S eptem ber, 1939, busi­
ness w as m astered by th e p rio rity
given to w a r production. T he end

of th e fight brought the end of the
a rm a m e n t m an u factu res. T he adaptatio n of w orks to new conditions
created by th e arm istice is p a rtic u ­
larly u n satisfacto ry , due to th e separatio n betw een unoccupied zone and
th e occupied zone, and also to the
fact F ran ce is n o t able to im port
or export any m ateriał.
T he sta te alone has m eans of ac­
tion and au th o rity , and th a t is lim ­
ited. An in d u strial organization bill
is u n d er consideration. I t foresees
th a t economic activity will be assum ed by co-operation of sta te represen tatives and ąualifled delegates
of em ployers and em ployes. However, as the w ording and passage
of such a bill w ill tak e tim e, it
has been decided to establish a tem ­
p o rary organization.
C om m ittees Appointed
In each b ran ch of in d u strial or
com m ercial activity, w here the situ a ­
tion reąu ires, a com m ittee on o rgan­
ization will be appointed. On a u ­
th o rity of th e production and labor
m in istry this com m ittee w ill be in
.charge of:
1. S etting up th e list of firm s and
of th e ir m eans of production, th e ir
supplies and w orkm anship.
2. Fixing a pro g ram of m an u fac­
tu re and production.
3. O rganizing the purch ase and
th e distribution of ra w m a te ria ł and
products w hich a re needful to the
fabrication of th e considered branch
of activity.
4. E stablishing ru les to be assigned to th e firm s. The ru les will
be related to th e generał conditions

of th e ir activity, their care for

ro u tin e fo r th e exchange of products
and services, and the establishment
fo r fa ir competition.
5.
P roposing to “the right public
a u th o rities” fo r agreem ent prices
fo r products and services.
M em bers of the committee on or­
ganization are appointed by the min­
ister. H e him self is represented by
a governm ent commissioner. Decisions by the committee are to be
applied, unless the commissioner
does not accept them.
A t th e com m ittee’s proposal the
m in ister m ay reąuisition raw mate­
riał, m achinery and even the firms
them selves. In such case the firm
o r firm s would be managed by a
director appointed by the governm ent.
A ny infringem ent of these rules
is to be punished by fines, and the
m an a g e r is no longer allowed to
m anage any firm.
The office of distribution of in­
d u strial products and its depart­
m ents give the sta te the power to
supervise the com m ittee on organ­
ization—besides the control assured
to th e governm ent, through the com­
m issioner.
T he office has to know the quantity of ra w m ateriał available and
th e needs of industry. Its duty is
taf d istrib u te the various products
im partially.
T he m ain office has departments
u n der its command. Already estab­
lished are departm ents for steel
products; fo r liąuid fuels and for
coal.
T he distrib u to r who manages the
d ep artm en t is assisted by a consult­
ing com m ittee, appointed by the
governm ent.
Q uestions of financing have been
/T E E L
settled by “le tte rs of ag reem en t.”
From now on, if a m a n u fa c tu re r
wants to und ertak e th e m a n u fa c tu re
of a new product he m u st advise
the m inister of production of his
desire and ask fo r an “ag reem en t.”
This letter of a g reem en t points
out the kind, ąu ality , ą u a n tity , delivery, and th e sale price of th e
goods that the m a n u fa c tu re r is permitted to m ake. T he m in ister can
reąuest a m a n u fa c tu rer to u n d ertak e
a definite line of fabrication.
With the letter, th e m a n u fa c tu re r
can receive th e necessary funds to
undertake his task. If his goods are
not sold, he can g et m oney by w arranting his products as they go on
stock.
Staggered by th e w ar, F ren ch
economy is ru n n in g a t a low rate.
Unemployment is inereasing. In th e
Paris district alone 800,000 m en a re
on the dole list. E v ery th in g is done
to reduce it, but ra w m a te ria ls a re
lacking, and a g re a t n u m b er of technical men—now p riso n ers of w a r
in Germany—are necessary.
The division of th e co u n try into
zones makes difficult th e distribution
of resources according to local needs.
Many firms are sh o rt of cash as th e
settlement of w ar co n tracts is fa r
from complete. They do not receive
payments from th e ir custo m ers in
the unoccupied zone. T he government tries to solve these problem s
the best it can.
The penance of defeat alread y is
beneficial and its effects a re easy to
observe. France did not su ffer heavy
casualties during th e w ar; its potential is safe. I t is u n d erstan d in g
itself, organizing its trade, its a g ri­
culture, its industry. I t w a n ts to
work and no doubt will becom e active and prosperous again.

III. Co-operation
A. Zinc. T he tig h t situation in
th e production and th e industrial
utilization of zinc has led to generał
b u t in fo rm al action by the division.
Zinc producers, a fte r conferences
w ith officials of the diyision, have
tak en effective stens to facilitate
flow of zinc into m ilitary brass, and
non-defense consum ers have been
urg ed to co-operate y o luntarily and
to effect substitutions and economies. So fa r, no form al priority
action h as been taken, though the
ąuestion is still under consideration.
B. P o ta ssiu m P erch lo ra te. This
chem ical e n ters into both m ilitary
and civilian channels. P roducers have
ag reed to supply all m ilitary needs
first, to ta k e care of m anu factu rers
m ak in g sa fe ty flares, and to m ake
n ecessary cuts in th e ąuan tities flowing to non-defense purposes.
C. S tr u c tu r a l S te e l Sh a p es. Effo rts to expedite the flow of stru c­
tu ra l steel shapes into defense con­
stru ctio n w ere inaugurated w hen
consum ers began to experience difficulties in o btaining these necessary
construction supplies on sh o rt delivery. As a re su lt of a conference
betw een rep resen tativ es of th e di­
yision and th e steel companies, pro­
ducers have un d ertak en to fili de­
fense orders as prom ptly as pos­
sible.
D.
S ta in le ss S te el. T his product,
into which nickel en ters as an im ­
p o rtan t part, is widely used fo r both
defense and ciyilian purposes. Slow
deliveries have developed, and the
priorities diyision is ta k in g p re­
lim inary steps to try to ease this
situation. No fo rm al p rio rity ac­
tion has been taken. The leading
producers of stainless and o th e r
nickel steeis, a t the re ą u e st of the
diyision, have agreed to give first
cali to defense needs and to give
technical advice to th e ir clients
which m ay help to reduce th e
am ount of nickel re ąu ired under
present specifications.
O ther m etals, probably due fo r
some degree of p rio rity action, but
not yet form ally acted upon, are
nickel itself and tungsten.
Mr. S tettinius said th a t th e list
rep resen ts m erely th e presen t ap ­
proach being followed in the speciflc
cases mentioned. The action in any
case can be ąuickly modified, relaxed o r strengthened, and it is app are n t th a t a num ber of changes
m ay have to be made.
He added th a t w hile every prio r­
ity action tak en is alm ost certain
to cause difficulty for someone, at
le ast tem p o rarily all efforts a re be­
ing m ade, w ith th e aid of labor adyisers and o th er consultants, to
avoid unnecessarily throw ing m en

Copper and Brass Incorporated have made
an intensive study of this metal "vitalizing”
process. It has resulted in many improved
applications of copper and its alloys. Three
of these applications are especially notable.
1.
A condenser tube notably resistant to
"dezincification.”
2.
A sheet copper with a high resistance to
"season cracking.”
3 . Brasses, bronzes and other alloys with
finer "working” and "machining” ąualities.
The Revere Technical Advisory Service is
armed with much specialized knowledge of
new developments in the copper family. Its
services are ayailable at no obligation for
individual problems to which copper or cop­
per base alloy may be the answer.

capable of g en eratin g accu rate sizing, in high production, uniform ly

and num ber of selective fits. The
m echanism , Fig. 1, is arranged with
visual dials to facilitate setup, ad­

control. In autom otive engine pistons, it can rem ove 0.0005 to 0.0001inch stock from a 0.750-inch diam­

Two new Red Ring broaches being
introduced by N ational Broach &

decrease costs and inerease produc­

broach Fig. 4, cuts a 0.037-inch cir­
cular T-slot a t one revolution at a
production ra te of approximately
100 per hour. The other, a double
ju m p broach, is for working cored

forgings w hich in broaching require
relatively heavy cuts in order to
keep the cutting edges of tools be­

surface of the hole.
Bottom hole tapping with stand­

of the new collapsible tap, Fig. 3, to
be show n a t the booth of Modern

...when they switched to TYCOL CUTTING OIL
For the past four years a well-known
machinę tool builder has been using
Tycol Non-Tarnishing Sulphurized
Cutting Oil for all generał purpose
cutting and forming operations in
screw machinę work. In addition
to proving satisfactory for a wide
rangę of steels, this sulphurized oil
is used in machining bronze with­
out tarnishing the metal. This desir­
able characteristic eliminated the
necessity of holding m achinę
schedules to one type of metal. The
result was increased machinę production with a wide rangę of metals
thus eliminating waste. » » » Other
plant managers have speeded up
produetion with Tycol Cutting Oils
and have found these products an
insurance against freąuent tool
re g rin d in g and ta rn ish in g of
work and have enjoyed increased
produetion.

154th m eeting of th e A m erican In ­

E ngineers, New York, Feb. 17-20, by
L. D. W oodw orth, chief m etallu rg ist,
and E. E. McGinley, m etallu rg ist,

Combined p ro p erties of good
w eldability, m achinability and stiffness a re adm itted w hich fully explain th e stro n g en tren ch m en t of
bessem er steels in certain fields,
these m erits being well understood;
am ong them screw steels m achines
in autom atics, skelp fo r small-diame te r buttw elded conduit an d various
tin p la te applications.
Justification of old ideas of inferioi'ity of bessem er steels in respect
to physical p ro p erties fo r som e uses
is challenged by Mr. W oodw orth,
who points out th e lack of m etal­
lurgical know ledge a t th e tim e such
claim s w ere accepted, w hich caused
in v estig ato rs of service failu res to
ascribe them , fo r w an t of a b e tte r
reason, to th e fact th a t a p a rt w as
of bessem er Steel.
O utlining a

steels w ith M i\ McGinley, he found
th a t co n tra ry to g en erał belief, impact stre n g th s of bessem er a re f a ir­

Temperature Control Important
As in any steelm aking process,
M essrs. W oodw orth and McGinley
stre ss th e im portance of te m p e ra ­
tu re control and degree of oxidation
in bessem er produetion. M ateriał
advancem ents in both directions
have been m ade in recen t years.
Several devices to aid in controlling
steel te m p eratu re in the vessel are
available to the blower. E very ef­
fo rt is m ade to confine the teem ing
te m p e ra tu res w ithin recom m ended
ranges, and, by constantly checking
te m p e ra tu res from heat to heat, the
blow er is inform ed of any variation
in te m p e ra tu re. W hen necessary,
corrective m easures can be applied
on succeeding blows.
V ariations in the chem ical an aly ­
sis (p a rtic u larly Silicon) and phys^
ical h eat of the iron m u st be comp ensated fo r if uniform tem p e ra­
tu re s a re to be obtained. The ad ­
dition of a reg u lated am ount of
scrap to the m etal bath in th e early
p a rt of the blow is the best corrective m easure fo r te m p e ra tu re con­
trol, th ey claim. D uring the course
of th e blow o th e r m easures can be
tak en —the introduction of steam
into the blast m ain as a coolant or
the tipping of the vessel for sideblowing to inerease the tempera­
tu re. E ith e r of these two methods
a re to be avoided, sińce they introduce several additional variables.
W arning against either extremes
of tem p eratu re, Mr. Woodworth
cited dilficult pouring, scabby in­
gots and skulls resulting from low
te m p e ratu res w hile extremely high
hea ts a re detrim ental to both quality and economical operation. High
h eats are also bad for the surface
of the sem ifinished product in the
m aking of rim m ed or capped steel.
Delayed rim m ing action will result
and also the lenticular blow holes,
notably in the low er portion of the
ingot will extend alm ost to the sur­
face. These will be exposed and ap­
pear as flaws and seams on the
sem ifinished product in subsequent
heating and rolling operations. Hot
h eats are also difficult to propetl>
deoxidize in the semikilled grades.
E rra tic mili yields, interior surface,
strip p in g delays and other objectionable produetion problems also
arise from extrem ely high heats.
E xistence of an optimum teeming
rangę, 2860 to 2S90 degrees Fahr. is
indicated by extensive studies on
screw steel. Influence of teeming
tem p era tu re on surface quality is
found to be the sam e for this grade
of steel as for capped and rimmed
steels. Also the 'teeming tempera­
tu re ot screw steels exerts a maiKe^
influence on the internal soundness
of ingots and the tendency toward
piping as reflected in decre^ in|
bloom ing m ili yields. Most of thes
steels are made semikilled to attai
m axim um m achinability, necessi a
ing the addition of a deoxidizei
th e steel in the molds.

Close co-operation betw een

found to re s u lt in a h ig h p ercentage
of the blows falling betw een th e

Ginley found approxim ately 87 per

2870 to 2910 degrees F a h r. w ith 7.5

The b essem er process w ell exhibits th e physical-chem ical reactions betw een oxygen and m etalloids w hen b ro u g h t into contact a t
high te m p eratu res. O xygen in th e
a ir en terin g th e tu y e re s oxidizes th e
iron to FeO which in tu rn oxidizes
th e S i l ic o n , m anganese and carbon
in th e pig iron in the o rd er m en­

tak in g place sim ultaneously, speed
of th e reactions fo r th e rem oval of
each elem ent differs greatly. Be­
fore th e oxidation of th e carbon develops to m ateriał degi’ee, Silicon
and m anganese a re practically eliminated.
As elim ination of these
m etalloids proceeds th e iron oxide
content increases slowly until the
end point of th e blow is reached;
Silicon has been elim inated while
the carbon and m anganese a re down

wet or cold feet no longer need be the lot of those workers whose duties
expose them constantly to these uncomfortable experiences- Made of Goodyear's
Pliofilm, these foot-shaped slippers are thin, p liable. extremely light in weight
but tough and sem iplastic. They conform to the shape of the foot and do not
crowd even in snug shoes. Being waterproof and airtight, they retain the body heat
tak en from the stream while pour­
ing fro m ladle to mold. A large
difference in the iron oxide exists
betw een skelp and screw steel.
W hile th is difference is influenced
to a certain degree by the higher
m anganese speciflcation for screw
steel (usually 0.60 to 0.90 per cent
m anganese as compared with 0.35
to 0.50 m anganese for skelp), the
biggest fa c to r contributing to the
difference is the blowing time after
th e end point. Iron oxide samples
tak en before and a fte r the manga­
nese addition, fo r both skelp and
screw steel, showed the iron oxide
content of the m olten steel was reduced approxim ately 50 per cent by
th e m anganese addition.
A nalysis of Studies
I t would appear th at for skelp 87
per cent of the blows studied fell
w ithin the rangę of 55 to 75 per
cent m anganese efficiency, while for
screw steel 88 p e r cent of the blows
fell w ithin the rangę of 70 to 85 per
cent m anganese efficiency.
A nother featu re receiving consid­
erable study by M essrs. Woodworth
and McGinley is the amount of nitro g en in bessem er steels and the
facto rs controlling it. It has generally been th o u g h t th a t the factors
governing the am ount of nitrogen
pickup in blowing are:
(a) The length of (1) total blow­
ing tim e and (2) time interval
from end point to tu m down.
(b) T em perature of the blow.
(c) Carbon content of the bath.
Some experim ental work has been
done reg ard in g the relation between
blow ing tim e and nitrogen content
a t the plant, but the results so far
have been negative.
D ata th a t have been publishea
and th e experiences of different Carnegie-Illinois bessem er plants mdicate th a t different plants produce a
slightly different nitrogen rangęThus, one plant m ay average U.UU
p er cent nitrogen and another may
average 0.015 per cent. The rea
sons fo r this a re probably tied up
w ith the individual plant’s eąuip­
m ent, raw m aterials used, and practices, according to Mr. Woodwort .

It was a typical case and costly, too — 600,000 automotive parts
were involved for a special job, and then came the upset in the
production schedule.
The P.A. thought the required amount of special analysis steel
had been ordered. But unfortunately the strip made by mili “A”
was rolled on the heavy side of gauge. Although the weight was
there, the footage wasn’t — so excuses had to take the place of
finished parts and fuli profits. Perhaps, the P.A. was at fault for
not emphasizing gauge accuracy, but by then it was too late to
matter who was at fault.
Now CMP strip is specified, and orders meet all requirements,
including footage, because gauge accuracy is a CMP specialty —
definitely mentioned or not, CMP strip is rolled to very close
limits. The more accurate to gauge, the more feet per pound
and the more finished parts per 1 0 0 pounds.
You can always depend on CMP strip giving extra values. Request
a CMP representative to cali — he will be glad to make recommendations for your consideration.

Preparations to bring about efficient results in using the cut­
ting torch for stack cutting may only prove to be wasted ef­
fort if the operator makes one false move during the cutting
proeedure. Anyone involved in this type of work may profit
from the accompanying hints which The Linde Air Products
Co., New York, recommends as good practice for accomplishing a successful job
single piece of m etal. The cutting
action, how ever, s ta rts in the top
p late first, and gradually progresses
down th ro u g h the stack, plate by
plate, as the blowpipe advances.
This s ta rtin g proeedure consistently yields cut s u r f a c e s of high
ąuality.
T he swinging-blowpipe m ethod is
a n o th e r cut-starting m ethod which
is used extensively. The stack is
p rep ared and clam ped in the norm al
m anner, b u t th e cutting m achinę is
fltted w ith a special attachm ent fo r
holding th e blowpipe. This provides
fo r a d ju stm en t of the blowpipe a t
an angle along the line of cut.
The sta rtin g proeedure is t h e
sam e as in o ther m aehine-cutting
operations, except th a t the blowpipe
nozzle is slanted aw ay f r o m t he
stack at the sta rt, as in B, re fe rrin g
to the sketehes. C utting progresses
dow nward th ro u g h the stack as th e
nozzle advances a t the se t angle.
W hen the cut pierces th ro u g h the
whole stack, t h e blowpipe is adjusted back to vertical fo r th e rem ainder of th e cut. This a d ju st­
m ent m u st be com pleted while still
cutting in the scrap m ateriał.
S ta rtin g a cut by this m ethod has
the advantage of re ąu irin g less care
in the alignm ent of the plates in the
stack, but re ąu ires e x tra blowpipe
m anipulation during cutting.
A th ird sta rtin g proeedure, identified as the preheated-edge method,
is the sim plest of all and is, highly
effective provided the edges of the
plate or sheet in t h e stack are
stra ig h t and sąuare. The stack of
83
plates is built up to th e desired
height and a rra n g e d so t h a t th e
s ta rtin g edges a re aligned verticalły
before clam ping. Uneven edges like
those in D a re avoided.
As soon as th e cu ttin g blowpipe
has been lighted and adjusted, and
the cu ttin g m achinę is read y to be
started , th e flam e of a w elding blow­
pipe is played on th e edge of th e
stack at th e sta rtin g point of th e
cut. As indicated in sketch C, th e
heatin g blow pipe is moved u p and
down across th e edge of th e stack

If th e sheared plates are piled so
th a t th e rounded edges face upw ard,
these rounded edges will have a

On th e o th er hand, w h erev er de­

this is not practicable, stack t h e

example, a 3" x 12 ga. tube is tested at 1900 pounds, a
2" x 13 ga. at 2550 pounds and a 1" x 13 ga. at 5700
pounds. And, although extremely high in test value, such

HYDRAULIC DRIVE
Switching and haulage service makes great demands upon
eąuipment. Locomotives must stand up under long hours of
continuous service—they must operate with the greatest economy—they must reąuire the least in maintenance attention.
Whitcomb knows these problems, and their engineers are constantly on the alert to devise ways and means of providing bet­
ter service at lower costs. The most recent development along
these lines has been the application of fluid drive in their me­
chanical units, replacing the conventional clutch. This arrangement provides a smooth, continuous flow of power through a
Hydraulic Coupling. Torsional vibrations or shock loads are
eliminaled due to the absence of any mechanical connection
between the driving and driven members: this reduces wear
on engine and mechanical parts of the locomotive. No clutch
maintenance reąuired—no engine stalling encountered.

an d h and pulling of outgoing or­
ders. The dividing u p rights of these
rack s a re constructed of 4-inch chan­
nels. T he cross bars fo r the two
low er divisions of the rack are weld-

ed to the up rig h ts to assu re addi­
tional stru c tu ra l stre n g th to the
whole rack assem bly. These two
com partm ents are used fo r storing
m ateriał th a t m oves casually.
Those th ree cross bars, separating the upper fo u r com partm ents,
are attached to a connecting rod
and all four cross bars fo r each di­
yision sim ultaneously tilt up and
backward, p erm itting free access
fo r the crane to load o r unload, as
shown in Fig. 1. In this p articu lar
instance, the m ateriał in the upper
two com partm ents has been removed by crane and stored, temporarily elsew here. All the movable cross bars are notched. W hen
the bars are lowered into position,
these notches fit over lugs welded
onto the back end of the cross bars
ahead.
Provision is m ade so crane hooks
o r chains never touch low-carbon or
stainless grades of sheet steel. Incoming m ateria! is placed on solidly built wooden platform s, as
show n in Fig. 2. The platform s or
racks are so constructed th a t one

Fig. 2—Closeup of sheet platform and lifting plates, left. Note in background
how the platforms stack to form racks
Fig. 3—Delivery trucks, right, have a 4-inch raised platform in center for sheet,
preventing bars and structurals from rolling against it. Ladder at rear pushes
into back of platform and locks in position
flts perfectly upon th e top of a n ­
o th er one, m aking it possible to
stack eig h t to ten sections, form ing
a succession of draw ers, w hich protects th e steel on all sides.
These p latfo rm s a re eąuipped
w ith fo u r steel lugs, tw o on each
side, in w hich crane hooks a re inserted fo r liftin g and tra n sp o rtin g .
A single p latfo rm o r an en tire sec­
tion can easily be m oved w ith o u t
touching th e steel stored. If th e
bottom ra c k of steel be reąu ired ,
the crane is hooked to th e lu g s of
th e p latfo rm im m ediately above it
and th e en tire section lifted off. The
crane then picks up the desired
rack of steel and carries it to the
point of fabrication or shipment.
An added feature of this method
of storing permits the delivery to
a Client of an entire platfoi'm when
specified, the platform being picked
up from the customer at a later
date.
Another feature of the plant is
the method used to handle stain­
less steel sheets. The materiał remains in the original shipping Con­
tainer. When reąuired, the crane
lifts the platform, Container and
steel and m oves it to the desired

location. The shipping Container is
then opened and the necessary
sheets removed. The remaining
sheets a re le ft in the original package and retu rn ed to the storage
section.
Thus, steel sheets are
never exposed to w eather or surface
dam age, regardless of the length of
tim e in storage.
To a ssu re the perfect condition of
m a teriał stored in the warehouse
bays, the com pany has installed a
2-inch wooden roof with the composition covering, thus eliminating
condensation and enhancing the
value of the service to its clients.
A sheet or plate ladder to assist
in unloading m ateriał from delivery
tru c k s of the company is shown in
Fig. 3. The ladder cannot be rem oved from the truck nor can it
slide out during tran sit for when

the body of the tru c k and slips over
lugs which hołd it in place. The

■ W eighing approxim ately 1600 pounds and m easuring 42 inches in diameter
and 64 inches w ide, this magnetic pulley, developed b y Magnetic Engineering
& Mfg. Co., Clifton, N. J., is believed to be one of the largest ever built. It is used
as a head pulley for a 60-foot wide conveyor belt carrying lump ore. Its job is
to remove spikes, nuts, coupling pins, n ails, cutting knives and other miscellaneous
iron pieces that would damage a crusher. R ad ial and horizontal openings through
the pulley allow free air movement. Uniform magnetic puli across the face of
the pulley is obtained b y sp ecially designed pole pieces, integrally cast with
the pulley

Throttle the supply of bolts> nuts, machinę screws, and other threaded
industrial fastenings, and our defense program, would halt. There is no
piane, no tank, no gun, no ship, no machinę tool, no box car that does
not contain scores of such important products. For the "lowly” bolt
and nut and its modifications provide industry with its only standardized
fastening that may be accurately adjusted and that permits disassembły
and reassembly at will.
R B & W is continuing plant expansion and product improvement, as
well as adding to seryice facilities, in order that the pace of progress
in the bolt and nut industry may be not only maintained, but substantially accelerated.
Since 1845, through years of war and years of peace, through booms
and depressions, R B & W has provided industry with stable facilities for
EMPIRE Bolts, Nuts, Rivets, and other Threaded Industrial Fastenings.
In the futurę, as well as in the past, R B & W quality and RB & W
seryice will be maintained.

(Concluded fr o m P a g e 60)
of the old copybook m axim w hich
insists that we should th in k about
what we are doing. N othing is
farther from th e tru th . Civilization
—and along w ith it th e m achinę tool
industry—advances as w e increase
the number of th in g s we can do w ith out thinking. Thus, h aving once
thought through th e seąuence of
operations reąu ired to m achinę a
shell and having tra n sla te d these
conclusions into th e solid realities
of cams and g ears and slides, we
need think about th em no m ore th a n
may be necessary to m ain tain them .
This permits a m an (o r p erh ap s a
woman) to attend one o r p erh ap s a
number of such u n its w ith o u t any
long or costly train in g .
No one ąuestioned th e value of
these beliefs until tim e -sa v in g be­
came of m ore conseąuence th a n
tabor-samng in th e production of
tens of millions of high-explosive
shells.
Obviously th e ąu estio n is, “How
much skill should be incorporated
into the m achinę?” T he p resen t
dividing point ap p ears to ex ist a t
that point w here th e au to m atic
lathe is assembled in a group to
form a m ultispindle unit.
Some
users favor the “single p u rp o se” type,
others advocate th e m ultispindle
automatic. Perh ap s w e have tak en
for granted th a t th e tools re ą u ire d
to fulfill shell co ntracts will have
to be specially built. No doubt they
should in m ost cases, so a s n o t to tie
up lathes urgently re ą u ire d fo r o th er
defense work.
Consider “T otal” T im e: T h u s tim e
to build the lathe as w ell as tim e
reąuired to operate it m u st be combined in any a tte m p t a t analysis
of “saved” time.
Some such considerations as th e
foregoing no doubt caused th e O rd­
nance D epartm ent in 1939 to re ą u e st
the National M achinę Tool B uilders’
Association to design a line of singlepurpose lathes fo r tu rn in g shell.
These machines w ere to be inexpensive, easy to build in m achinę shops
of limited facilities and capable of
producing shell in th e hands of an

m ulti-station m achines.
F u rth e r,
the advantages of interchangeability
arising from standardization w hich
have so cheapened and sim plified
m an u factu re in m any o th er lines
would apply in this case also. Aętually the to tal num ber of such a u ­
tom atic lathes re ąu ired to c a rry th e
entire shell p ro g ram need not exceed
perhaps a couple of th o usand if th e
productive ra te of a “shell a m in u tę”
is m aintained over a high percen­
tage of the to tal hours p e r week,
unless the present p rogram of the
Ordnance D epartm ent suffers a drastic revision upw ard.
N ot only has the m ulti-station type
of autom atic been regarded as be­
ing too tim e-consum ing to produce,
but the designs of existing singlespindle autom atics have been ą u ite
radically modified not only by the
M achinę Tool B uilders’ proposals but
also by the P rescott Co. of Menominee, Mich. These m achines, especially designed fo r the production
of shell, present som e in te re stin g
contrasts to th e m ore elaborate,
carefully tooled and expensively
fitted m achines of th e type which
have been developed to m eet the
needs of the norm al m arket.
Consider, fo r exam ple, Fig. 2
showing the No. 11 A m algam ated
Fig. 7—Multiple Spindles: Modern version of the automatic, in which Spencer's
cam control is applied to a machinę having eight spindles instead of one spindle.
This permits a ll tools on the turret (tool slide) to operate at once instead of one at
a time, thus producing the finished part in approximately the time of the longest
single operation

shell tu rn in g lathe m an u factu red
by th e P re sc o tt Co. In ste a d of hold­
ing th e w ork in a fixed longitudinal
relatio n to th e bed as in th e ordi­
n a ry lathe, th e shell is m ounted be­
tw een een ters in a carriag e which
m oves p a st th e tools. This carriag e
slides not upon th e fa m ilia r fiat bed
o r V-shaped guides, b u t upon ground
and polished high-carbon steel bars,
2 15/16 inches in diam eter. Since
the ovei'all dim ensions of the sliding
carriag e a re of the o rd er of 2 x b
feet, th e arra n g e m en t is extrem ely
rigid. The c arriag e drive consists
of a feed screw of 4 pitch, Acme
thread , 2 7/16 inches in diam eter,
w orking in a n u t 7% inches long,
w hich can be controlled th ro u g h
helical g ears by a handw heel seen
in th e fo reg ro u n d of Fig. 4.
U niąue M achinę Tool: T he cuting tools in the P resco tt m achinę
a re carried on a knee w hich pro jects
from th e bed casting betw een th e
tw o ways. Any convenient num ber
of tools can be m ounted in stra ig h t
tu rn in g operations. F o r th e contour
w ork re ą u ire d on a shell nose, the
tool head h as two tools opposite one
a n o th e r as show n. T hese tools are
u n d er control of the fo rm e r seen directly above th e tool head. T his fo r­
m er engages tw o rollers, one on
e ith e r side. As th e fo rm e r forces th e
rollers a p a rt, th e tools come closer
to g eth e r and vice-versa. T h erefore
th e fo rm e r will be th e reverse of the
p a rt being m achined.
In practice a m odel of th e p a rt to
be tu rn e d is used as a m a ste r fo r­
m er to g en e ra te th e fo rm e r itself.
A gain one is im pressed w ith th e simplicity an d m echanical advantages
of th e arra n g e m en t. N ot only can
two cuts be tak en sim ultaneously,
th e re b y obtaining th e sam e fine cut
a s w ould be secured w ith h alf th e
feed of a single tool, b u t th ere
is no bending m om ent on th e fo r­
m e r w hile in action.
To save th e expense of a m otor
fo r each m achinę, flexible coupiings
m ay be m ounted on th e extensions
of th e drive sh a ft and each lath e
connected to its n eighbor in the
line. T he drive s h a ft is heavy enough
to tra n s m it 100 h orsepow er a t 400
revolu tio n s p er m in u tę fro m a single
m otor. H ow ever, each m achinę m ay
be driven se p a ra te ly if desired, usin g
a sta n d a rd m o to r m ounted on a re a r
b rac k e t and provided w ith a V-belt
o r chain drive.
In operation, th e shell fo rg in g to
be tu rn e d is in serted betw een th e
live spindle driving fixture, rig h t,
and th e tailsto ck center, on left,
w hen th e c a rria g e is fa rth e s t to
th e left and w hile th e spindle is a t
rest. T he tailsto ck cen ter is advanced by th e air-piston contained
w ith in it an d th e spindle clutch
lever and feed lev er a re th ro w n in­
to engagem ent. On com pletion of
th e tu rn in g operation, th e feed a u ­
tom atically stops, th e spindle is
stopped and the tailstock throw n into
rev erse and the rapid tra v e rse retu rn s th e c arriag e to its original
position ready fo r an o th er shell.
The Ex-Cell-0 double-tool verticaltype tui'ning m achinę, Fig. 5, is
capable of p erform ing a wide ran g ę
of w ork. I t is hydraulically oper­
ated and is com pletely autom atic
except th a t the w ork m u st be in ­
serted and rem oved by hand and the
m achinę cycle sta rte d by m anuał
m ovem ent of the control lever. The
tw o tool slides are m echanically interlocked to in su re th e uniform ra te
of feed fo r both tools. These slides
have a built-in tool re tra c tin g device
w hich w ithdraw s the tools from con­
tact w ith the w o rk ' a t th e end of
th e feed stro k e w hile the slide retu rn s rapidly to its original position
and th e re a fte r advances them to the
cu ttin g position.
T hese m achines are hydraulically
operated and com pletely controlled
th ro u g h a pilot valve eąuipped w ith
a handle fo r m an u ał in te rru p tio n of
th e operation a t any point in th e
cycle. The electric Controls a re interlocked, controlled and operated
from the pilot control valve. A
force-feed lu b ricatin g pum p is hy­
draulically operated and delivers oil

th e tailstock, th e slides, w ays and
dove-tail—a ctually m eterin g th e oil

R efinem ents vs. Siniplicity:
Of
course th e average o p erato r would
r a th e r handle th e la tte r m achinę.
B ut th e refinem ent and excellent de­
sign of m achines in the class of th e
Ex-Cell-0, if w e h a v e to bu ild th e m ,
m ay not be tim e -sa v e r s over a relatively sh o rt period such as we hope
th e d u ration of th e p resen t em er­
gency will be; in fact, they m ay not
even be la b o r-sa v ers on th e sam e
basis. They would, presum ably, justify them selves in a n o rm al econ­
om y—b u t th e p resen t situ atio n is
a f a r different situ atio n th a n u n der
“n o rm al” tim es.
In com m enting on recen t tren d s
in m achinę tool design a t a recent
m eeting of the A m erican Society of
M echanical E ngineers, a well know n
m achinę tool designer observed th a t
these included ready-m ade variablespeed-drive devices, lubrication sys­
tem s of elaborate design, ground
g ears to elim inate noise, electric and
h ydraulic com bined Controls, h y d ra u ­
lic chucking, cem ented Carbide tools,
w ider spacing of colum ns and w ays,
hardened w earing surfaces, built-in
lig h tin g fixtures and such item s as
indicating in stru m en ts.
H e also noted th a t the price of
m achinę tools had advanced m any
fold in little m ore th a n a generation
an d su ggested th a t it m ig h t be bet­
te r if th e tre n d to w ard m ore and
m ore com plete tra n s fe r of intelli­
gence to the m achinę w ere changed
to a sim pler concept involving m any
of th e advantages of. the division of
labor.
Skilled Men, the Key: To make
th is elear, suppose a single oper­
ator, provided w ith an ordinary en­
gine lath e and the necessary tools,
could produce a shell from a forg­
ing. Considerable skill would be re­
ąuired. N ext suppose the work is
broken down into individual opera­
tions and a produetion line of “singlepurpose” m achines of the simplest
possible design provided. Such ma­
chines could be operated by intelligen t b u t not highly skilled labor—
each operato r handling one simple
step. T hrough such a division of
labor, each operator develops skill
by constant repetition of a single op­
eration. The next step involves the
elim ination of th a t labor in greater
or less degree and its replacement
by a "skilled” machinę. However,
the design and construetion of such
u n its would reąuire skilled men.
R ig h t here is the nucleus of the
diffieulty . . . for there is a lamentable sh o rtag e of such skilled men
because of the huge number needed,
th e neglect of our apprentice sys­
tem , th e drifting of men away from
the skilled trad es in times of depression and a certain lack of public
in te re st in the development of manu­
ał dexterity along w ith Latin, mathem atics and literature.
Do W e H ave Any Choice? Regard­
less of w h eth er one believes that
inereased complexity of a mechanism increases the possibilities of
trouble o r th a t a reduction in the
to ta l num ber of man hours re­
ą u ire d by defense work could be
attain e d by em ploying a high level
of “m achinę intelligence”—we app ear to have little or no choice.
W hile we have m any men with little
or no skill, th ere are relatively few
m en w ith a high degree of skill. In
eith er ease, tim e is all too limited.

Has only 3 simple, rugged parts—2 identical jaw flanges— 1 floating metallic cen­
ter błock.
The floating metallic center błock which
transmits load is free to float in any direction without cramping—binding—or usual friction and wear.
Wear is absorbed by inexpensive non-metallic bearing strips on
load bearing surfaces of the floating metallic center błock.
These are easily replaced without disturbing coupling alignment.
No flexible materials which absorb energy and cause side thrust
are used.
Write for Catalog No. 361 which contains complete information.

THE WELDING DESIGNER
Says
“ I S p e c ify A G I L E
R ods
b e c a u se . . .
my job is io continually design
new products and to redesign
the old. In my work I must
seek and use such products
that are specially designed for
the manufaeture of my items.
The need of specially d e ­
signed electrodes in my busi­
ness is day by day becoming
more acute. Past experience
with AGILE products and
the AGILE organization has
given me efficient performance,
a wealth of ideas and a cooperation that has become
indispensable".
