When thisoperation is complete the block is moved to a water test-ing jig for jacket leaks. The jig contains covers for thecore holes and is so arranged that 45 lb. pressure can beput on the casting to check leakage. The next manufacturing operation is to mill the tap-pet boss, which is done on a Becker miller having acapacity of 45 per day. The location in this case is bythe locating pads and the bottom face. January 18, 1921 AUTOMOTIVE INDUSTRIESTHE AUTOMOBILE 75. 7—Rough cylinder boring machine operation. No Mitel; is shown in this machine so the jig C07istructt0nmay be illustrated. It will be noted that it is a tunnel jig with the roller conveyor in the jig so that theroller conveyor is continuous through the machine. The conveyor drops out of the way when the machineis in operation. 8—The finish boring machine. Only two boring operations are performed on this two operations bring the barrels to grinding size. On this machine as well as on the rough boringmachine mill be seen an electric safety stop. The machines arc directly driven and if the regular stopon the machine did not work the current to the motor w >dd be shut off before damage could be done tothe no,chine. 9—The tenter testing fixture.
