NEW ERA IN BACK SHOP

Old Production Methods Revolutionized—
Half Century Forward Step Attained

 

 

 

Tho march of progress is swift,
and industries as well as individuals,
must. keep up with its pace or be
ruthlessly swept aside. No modern
industry can stand still; it must
either keep abreast with the current
of general advancement or sink into
obscurity and impotency. Tho cost
of production in all industries
mounts steadily. Each, day brings its
own problenisand its new threats to
profitable operation, and the indus-
try that would keep its wheels turn-

ing and make its financial invest.
merits profitable must have the lead-
orahip, the vision. the courage and
the initiative within its own ranks to
attack these problems and conquer
them. says The American llattcr in
a. recent issue. ,

~New Spirit in flat Trude Assurcs
Progress.

 

' « A new spirit~hus bee-tr \il-alble in

.‘ the trade of recent years—it spirit of
broad vision, i’orsiglitcdllcss and
progress. and a new. strong. \ll‘llC
leadership is being dm‘t'lulicii, that
will bring.' forth newJorces that will
benefit the industry immensely. lic-
cause of this tendency we lnay coll-
iidently look forward to rapid pro-
gress in all branches of the indus.
try as tho outlook of the immediate
future.

This new spirit is being particular-
ly manifested in the development of
new manufacturing processes, and
‘espeeially in the stimulation of in-
Nentlve genius and engineering skill

' as applied to the nccus or. ill“ trade
' for the production of new and more
scientific machinery to supplant the
old-fashioned production methods
which have so long been in vogue. '

Little Progress in Back Shop in 50
hours.
In the front shop, various types of
efficient machinery have been pep-
- footed and introduced from time to
time. so that. the operation of finish—
dng hats may be said to have kept
pace in a. general way witll the in-
dustrial march of progress along the
lines of machinery development.
0f the back shop in bat factories.
however, the Same cannot be said. In
this department. where the fclt hat
bodies are produced, little or no
progress has been made in the meth-
' rods of operation for the past half
‘century. A moving picture film
taken of the men at work in such a
department today would not differ

 

f=-.mhteriallv from a similar picture
, filmed fifty years ago.
3 Any industry must look to its

leaders for progress. 'l‘ho,risk and
axpense of the first step in a new dc-
" nurture must be taken by the firms
or individuals at the top. This is
the responsibility and reward of
' leadership, but it must be sorrowful-
iy admitted that leadership in most
departments of the hat trade has
been lamentably weak until quite re-
. routiy."

New “Genest” Process Sizing Ma-

There are now evidences. how-
sver. in numerous varied activities
it! a, rejuvenated spirit. and one of
the outstanding recent achievements
in the development. and perfection
of the “Genest” Process—a new siz-
ing machine. which after six years

ing Factories

The new sizing machine has
therefore been in effective everyday
use for over sixteen months. during
which period additional machines
have been produced. These have
been purchased by a number of hot
manufacturers .and they are in use
in the following plants under \ary-
ins conditions: Knox lint Company.
Brooklyn. N. Y.: H. McLachlan 6;
Co., Danbury. Coun.; i". ll. Lec Hat
Company. lianbury. Comp. John \V.
Glccn a. Sons, Danbury, L‘onn.. and
Merl'iinuc iiat company. Anicsbury,
Muss.

These plants opcratu froin one to
four machines clcli and report that
they perform successfully. giving

everyday experience and that the
use of thc machines has developed
many advantages

First it is claimed that a. much
superior quality of fclt is procured
in the bodies made on the "Genest"
process. This is due to the fact
that the “’Ul‘kliiall operating the inn-
cliino is not required to place his
hands 'in the hot water. and it is
therefore possible for the bodies to
be felted in water that is always at
the boiling point, means being pro-
vided for the constant application
of water at this temperature during
the entire time of sizing. in other
methods the sizing water cools dur-
ing the sizing process.

It has been found that the "Gen-
cst" Process Sizing Machines occu-
py less than one-quarter the space.
and require less than one-third the
amount of manual labor that is
necessitated for the same amount of
production by any'other method.

it‘urthermor the actual use of
thcsc machine 't'or over a. year un-
der everyday Working conditions
has proved that it is absOlutely ini-
possible to make a lighting rod.
stick ndiat or put a. shove or well:
in the body in the process of shrink-
ing, and as a result the percentage
of “Knock Downs' 'is practically nli.

In the use of this machine the
bodies are automatically self-craz-
lug.

It is interesting to note how't‘re-
uently it happens that unlocked-
f r benefits are derived from unex-
pected sources when new processes
are first developed—good points in
operation discovered w here they had
not been anticipated. For instance.

in the use of this new sizing ma.
chine it has been demonstrated that.
as the bodies reach the pouncing
stage much less effort is required on
the part of the workmen in this op-
eration than was formerly the case.
Consequently the production by men
in the pouncing department is great-
ly increased.

One of the acconlpaniing photo-

"Gencst" Process Sizing Machines in

this department discloses a great
improvement in working conditions
under the Old method in the hat. fac-
tory sizing departments. With‘tiio
new machines there is no steam in

mental to the workmen have been
eliminated.

One manufacturer in whose plant
this machine has been in
operation for over a. year. and who
had ordered additional machines.
recently stated that every day he is
more enthusiastic in his opinion of
tlio‘ value of the machine than he
was the day before. lie believes
that its introduction marks the
greatest advance in the art of mak-

in W5 entire experience of almost
half a, century. Further. he be-
lieves that the ultimate possibilities
of the machine have not as yet been
reached.

found to be readily adaptable to the

,It tite industry is to advance, it is
essential that modern engineering
skill be put to work and all avail-
able means be employed to increase
production. promote a greater de-
gree of efficiency and economy, and
iniprqvc quality. Eoresight and
unremitting activity in the constant
development. of new porcesscs is a
duty that, the leaders in any trade
owe, not only to themselves and In)
their industry. but to the nation at

a. highly important and valuable
co ribution to the national welfare
