See The Solution ofthe Crank Axle Problem, in this FIG. 6.—THE KIND OF REAMERS, WITHOUT STANDARDS AS TO SIZE, TAPER, LENGTH, OR MANNER OF CONSTRUCTION AND DESIGN, THAT RESULTED IN ONE SHOP FROM THE WORKING OUT OF THE IDEAS OF THE INDIVIDUAL FOREMAN. THESE REAMERS ARE THEMSELVES NOT ONLY SEVERALLY MORE EXPENSIVE TO CONSTRUCT THAN THE STANDARD ONES, AND LESS EFFICIENT IN OPERATION, BUT THEY ALSO MAKE THE WORK ON THE LOCOMOTIVES VERY COSTLY IN REPAIRS AND REPLACEMENTS. Standard taper link motion pinreamers. Standardizing the taperon all link motion pins of all en-gines will not only reduce the num-ber of reamers at each point to aminimum, but will make it possibleto concentrate the manufacture ofpins at a central point, supplyingall outside points on requisitions. Standard crosshead reamers. Thetaper on piston, crosshead, andwrist pin fits was standardized forall classes of engines on the sys-tem, reducing the number of ream-ers to only nine as shown in Fig. 5.
