Excerpt from Journal of the Society of Motion Picture and Television Engineers, Vol. 57: This Issue in Two Parts; Part I, December 1951 Journal; Part II, Index to Vol; 57; July-December 1951 Discussed is the use of a high-speed camera as a tool in the Company's Engi neering Division. Motion of fast moving parts is easily plotted by the use of a special timing disc graduated to sec. Through the use of negative film, film can be processed for study within two hours. The design and proving of the light, fast-moving parts in business machine mechanisms has been a difficult and time-consuming job. Advances in this field, while continuous, have been obtained only at a high cost in time and labor. In our study of the action of these mechanisms, we had been limited to the current instrumentation methods and to others which we improvised to record time and movement. But we had felt for some time that if we could slow down or actually stop the normal, rapid motion of parts under study, then our engineering work would be greatly simplified. Five years ago our Engineering Group had a particularly perplexing problem which had been under study for several years and to which a number of solutions were submitted. The question was how could we choose the right one without extensive testing. A high-speed camera capable of exposing 3000 frames a second was procured and put to work on this problem. The camera quickly proved to the satisfaction of engineering the correct solution. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
