Conversion. Electric shaver plant. Normal peacetime work of this New England plant is the production of electric dry shavers. The worker on this Norton type C six-inch semi-automatic cylindrical grinder normally grinds the rotor shaft for the motor of the shaver using this set-up. He has since been shifted to the making of spring collets to be used in machine tools being made to further the war production effort (see pix #D-2973). Schick Inc., Stamford, Connecticut

Conversion. Electric shaver plant. This Norton type C six-inch semi-automatic cylindrical grinder in a New England plant used to grind motor shafts for the firm's normal production of electric dry shavers. It is now grinding spring collets which are used in turning machines to hold the work being turned. Such machines are vitally needed for the war production effort. The conversion of the machine was accomplished by replacing the one-inch vitrified aluminum oxide wheel shown here with a three-inch wheel and by enlarging the feed of the cutting solution. Tolerances on this war work are only .002 inches as compared with the tolerances on the normal production of .0002 inches (see pix #D-2974). Schick Inc., Stamford, Connecticut
