. Railway mechanical engineer . ge diame-ter, is graduated in degrees and has a locking device wth12 divisions. Swiveling the ram greatly increases the useful-ness of the machine for all kinds of taper work and theswiveling arrangement is simple as shown in the illustration. A universal tool holder of the clapper type is gears are mgunted rigidly and the bearings are dustproofand oiltight. The - countershaft is self-contained and thetreadle brake shown projecting beneath the table enables theoperator to stop the machine with the ram in any desired po-sition. The stroke of the ram is 612 in. and work 7i in. highcan be placed on the table. The maximum diameter of workthat can be machined is 30 in. but the effective diameter ofthe rotarv table is 16 in. The longitudinal and transverse travels are 12 in. each, and the speed ranges from 26 to 77strokes per minute. The machine is manufactured by HarryF. Atkins, Peterborough, England, and is being placed onthe American market by Alfred Herbert, Ltd., New Atkins Slotting Machine With 6/;> in Stroke Fullswing Relie\ ing Attachment for Lathes SEVERAL new features have been included in the heavydut> relieving attachment illustrated, by means of whichif is possible to jierform a class of work not usually at-tempted on this t\-pe of lathe attachment. Interior relieving work may be mentioned as an example and in addition, allkinds of outside relieving work, including any angle, side,face, interior or irregular face flutings and taper cutting canbe performed. Designed to stand hard machine shop usage.
