This Norton cutter-grinder which had been specially adapted to grind cams on the motor shaft for the electric dry shaver which this New England plant normally produces, has now been converted to grind permanent magnet rotors for machine tool motors. The conversion was accomplished with new jigs and fixtures and slight changes in the head. This is a tricky job well suited to the skill of this plant's workers. The metal is alnico and the octagonal shape consists of surfaces which are arcs drawn from the center of the piece. Schick Inc., Stamford, Connecticut
