The Conveyor Co-ordinates Shop and Office of the pneumatic tube, with its adaptability to the mostirregular or crowded layouts, is a distinct advantage inmany plants. These carriers may be installed in parti-tions, furred ceilings, shafts, or other out-of-the-way they require infrequent attention they need not beso accessible as some other types of carriers. The size of the traveling containers or individual car-riers depends upon the size of the objects to be problem is individual in its solution. An essentialbasis of good design is careful handling of these Shop Terminal of Pneumatic Conveyor To this end, very smooth tubes are necessary, with neatlyfitted connections between sections. Similarly careful de-livery at the terminals is essential. Neat appearance is im-portant, where the tubes run exposed, in the usual sur-roundings where this equipment is installed. Compressed air or vacuum is the propelling force in pneumatic tubesystems. The range of distance over which these systemsoperate depends largely upon the weight of the packageand the provision made for supplying the proper blowers for each system are usual, although wherecompressed air is used for other purposes it may be sup-plied from the central source. Carrousel Conveyors A type of special conveyor much used in bottling plants,canning plants and foundries is shown in the accompanyingillustrations. The fact that the apron of this machinetravels in a horizontal plane throughout its entire circuitand is readily accessible from any point makes it an eco-nomical w
