Both of the above machines are operated simul-taneously and by one operator. The operations necessary to machine valve packing ringsare perfomied in the following order: Operation 1—Piece sawed from ring at groove (J^;iece sawed from 12-in. ring and 9/16-in. piece sawed from14-in. ring). Operation 2—Packing casting chucked in semi-automaticmachine with a 3/32-in. metal liner applied in opening. Operation 3—One side of casting (one ring) rough ma-. Fig. A—Cutting F
