APRIL 21, 1938. ADVERTISEMENTS. FLIGHT. 5 Unfaicate andaccurate Roughing out cooling fins on radial aero engine cylinder from steel forging under quadruple feed of COOLEDGE i in 20 emulsion on Churchill-Fay automatic lathe—courtesy Armstrong-Siddeley Motors Ltd., Coventry. Intricate and accurate — both words can fairly be used to describe the majority of jobs which a production engineer has to tackle in aircraft machining operations. The operation shown is typical — cylinder finning from the solid forging pro- vides an unusually high ratio of weight-removed to finished weight, yet the Atmstrong-Siddeley engineers are more than usually proud of the accuracy of the final result of this operation, in which COOLEDGE is used to facilitate heavy removal of material while preserving accuracy of finish. COOLEDGE water soluble cutting oil remains stable up to extreme dilutions and will not cause rust on fine finish nor gum up the machine slides. Make a test for yourself by writing for a free sample of COOLEDGE — business heading please.
