The author believes that thestationary iron will produce a stifter band, but thatwith its use there is greater wear on the band, owingto the greater friction. This form has also a greatertendency to stretch the band. Work done on the re-volving roll machine will not be so stiff, but as thereis very little friction, it will not wear the band as muchnor stretch it as much as the other. Th

Work done on the re-volving roll machine will not be so stiff, but as thereis very little friction, it will not wear the band as muchnor stretch it as much as the other. The only dangerwith a machine of this kind is that the operator isapt to wind on the cloth too wide, making the paddedroll longer than the heated roll. The result is thatthe pressure of the heated roll soon forms a sharpangle in the padded roll, and this angle has a tendencyto cut the bosom where the neckband joins it. Theiron roll presses down the surface which comes in con-tact with it, leaving the end of the padded roll standingup in a ridge and producing a shearing action between — 292.
