Description: | SOUTH BANK EXHIBITION, FESTIVAL OFBRITAIN 1951. Details of the Prince-Smith P.S.C. Centrifugal Spinning Machine exhibited in the Power and Production Pavilion at the South Bank Exhibition, London May 1951. Partly spun yarn is fed from the top bobbins to a series of cylindrical pots rotating at high speed and so imparting a twist to the yarn. It then collapses onto a bobbin below for removal. This machine is the first to employ the principles of centrifugal spinning successfully to dry yarn. Manufactured by Prince Smith & Skells Ltd., Keithley, Yorks. | Subjects: | photographic negative | Source: | Vads | Creator: | Artist: Council of Industrial Design | Identifier: | http://www.vads.ac.uk/large.php?uid=8218... | Go to resource |
