The Horwich Shops of the Lancashire& Yprkshire Railway—IL BY F. J. MILLER, in American Machinist.(Continued from April number.)Fig. 18 shows a machine which isone of the boldest conceptions of the. FIG. 18. HORWICH SHOPS, L. & Y. RAILWAY. and which had been constructed in thatestablishment many years before for do-ing the same work. We have no use forsuch a machine here, because we do notdo the work requiring it. The machineis for milling out the metal to form thecranks, and, roughly, the crank-pins alsofor the main driving axles of inside con-nected locomotives. Unfortunately thesetting out plate in the foreground ofFig. 18 obstructs the view of the ma-chine, but its general features can readilybe made out. As these axles come fromthe forge the mass of metal which formsthe two webs of a crank and the crank-pin is in one solid chunk, and, as ourreaders know, the usual practice in ma-rine work is to drill through at the cor-ners where the pin joins the webs andthen slot out the piece, leaving the pin amore or less misshapen affair to beslowly reduced to form in the lathe.
