The reversal from the cutting stroke tothe return required 29 111; moving the platen on the return,; anil the reversal after the return, Whenrunning light, was required to move the platen on theforward stroke. The cutting speed throughout these trials was about 23V4 minute, and the speed of the return stroke 50 ft. per min-ute. Although the controller was set at point No. 19, at which.
