New Autographic Testing Machine For Yarns And Fibres
Author: S. A. Shorter, D.Sc., and W. J. Hall, B.Sc., A.R.C.S.
Year: 1924
The machine described in the present paper is the outcome of an effort to design an instrument for research into the elastic properties of yarns and fibres. The existing machines seem to us to possess fundamental defects defects of principle, not merely of detailed design which in our machine we have endeavoured to avoid. A study of the dynamical principles underlying the action of testing machines suggested the main outlines of an instrument in which these defects should be practically non-existent. Our machine in its finished form, though it contains many minor details not originally thought of, does not deviate in any fundamental particular from the original plan.
