PUZZLES that Hendy puts together
Manufacturing 86-ton steam-turbine reduction-gear units is not a puzzle to us. But it was challenge when the Maritime Commission called on Hendy to build these turbine power plants and reduction gears which transmit driving force to cargo-ship propeller shafts. Intricate parts are machined by one of the world\'s finest collections of machine tools operated by craftsmen so skillful that accuracies equal to 1/5th the thickness of a human hair are attained even on the central gear, which stands 12 feet high.
