Did You Know?

The moderns CNC machine of today came about thanks to a man called John T.Parsons who after the second world war was involved in the manufacture of helicopter blades. Because these rotor blades needed precise machining he worked out that an early IBM computer could produce very accurate contour guides. Due to this success the air force offered him a contact to design a machine to automatically cut contours to manufacture wing sections for planes. The machine was very big and expensive but did a great job using a card reader and servo controls. It would not be until the start of the 60's that this new breed of machine would become more affordable thus allowing it to be used in a range of industries. That's the end of todays history lesson folks!

DID you Know? The first metal working lathe was invented in 1800 by a man called Henry Maudslay and boy have they come a long way since then, this was a pretty basic machine which was used with a lot of wheel and crank turning. The first milling machine that came nearly twenty years later thanks to a man called Eli Whitney still needed plenty of sweat and elbow grease to use. Due to the fact that it required the user to adjust the machines flywheel to make each part then the chances of getting identical parts made was like winning the lottery except they did not have the lottery back then, or did they?
