In West Homestead, Allegheny County, Pa., on the Monongahela River, about six miles from the business center of Pittsburgh, and adjoinipg Homestead, Pa., is located the immense plant of the Mesta Machine Com- pany. Being in the heart of the greatest iron and steel manufacturing district of the world, much of its product —heavy duty engines for rolling mills, blast furnaces and power plants; rolling mill machinery; steel, sand and chilled rolls; steel castings, and machine gears—has to be shipped but short distances. Shipping, however, to more remote places is well provided for, as the plant has direct connections with the Pennsylvania, Baltimore & Ohio, Pittsburgh & Lake Erie and New York Central railroads, and, as before mentioned, it is on the Monongahela River, by way of which it receives molded Fig. 1.—View in the Machine Shop of the Mesta Machine Company’s Plant at West can also be used when making shipments of machinery by river. On the river side of the machine shop is a yard covered by two electric traveling cranes, running the entire length of the shop. This yard is used for storing castings as they come from the foundry until the machine shop is ready to receive them. Directly back of the power house is a large forge shop, and imme- diately behind this the foundry, paralleled by a_ two- story and basement pattern shop, 6C ft. wide and 175 ft. long, and pattern storage buildings. The foundry build- ing has a main bay 80 ft. wide, a side bay 60 ft. wide and a 25-ft. lean-to on the opposite side. This foundry is also equipped with overhead traveling cranes and traveling jib cranes. On the river side of the foundry building is an 84-ft. Homestead, Pa. An Erecting Floor in the Foreground. considerable of its raw materials and supplies and ships some of its product. Although so close to the river and having river frontage, the floor line of the entire plant is 15 ft. above the highest level reached by the river. The plant covers about 20 acres of ground and has about 500,000 sq. ft. of floor space under roof, and over 400,000 sq. ft. covered by electric traveling cranes. At the front is a four-story, fireproof office building, where the general books and records are kept in large fireproof vaults. Directly behind the office are the contiguous buildings containing the machine and erecting shops. These are built of steel, concrete and fire brick; their combined width is 210 ft., their length 1000 ft., and like all of the other buildings, which also are built of steel and concrete, they are entirely fireproof in their con- struction. The overhead traveling cranes in these de- partments, and the machine shop tools, are capable of handling the heaviest pieces of machinery that can be shipped. Adjoining the lower end of the machine and erecting shops is the power plant. From the boiler house extend- ing to the river is an overhead bridge upon which coal 1s This bridge conveyed from barges to the coal storage. yard covered by 30-ton traveling gantry cranes. This yard is used for storing raw material, flasks, &c., and through it cars of material are distributed to the various departmeuts by the plant’s own locomotive. The Office Buildings, The office building has four floors, and is modern in construction and equipment. The first floor contains the time office and an emergency hospital, a library for the employees where all the leading technical and scientific periodicals are provided. This library is also used as a branch of the Homestead Carnegie Library. There is also a private dining room for visitors and officers of the company, as well as a larger dining room where luncheon is served daily to the office men, foremen and assistant foremen of the works. ‘ On the second floor are the offices of the officials of the company, the general offices, and offices of the gen- eral superintendent of the works. The third floor is devoted entirely to the sales depart- ment and contains the offices of the vice-president and sales manager, the estimating department, blue print room, photographic department, letter files, offices of the selling engineers, and a reception room for visitors. This THE Fig. 2.—Erecting Floor Where Engines 50 ft. Assembled. High Can Be floor also contains a fireproof vault where all foreign tracings, blue prints and drawings are kept. The fourth floor is entirely devoted to the engineering department with its drafting rooms and offices for the heads of each department. Long fireproof vaults are here provided for designs and tracings. A complete filing and index enables locating any work quickly. system piece or IRON View in the Main Erecting Shop and Bay Where the AGE August 12, 1909 The Machine and Erecting Shops, Like the walls, the floors of the machine shop build- ing are concrete, except certain sections which are heavy cast iron plates slotted for bolting heavy castings solidiy to the floor, enabling simultaneous operations with porta- ble tools to be performed on a single piece of machinery. Frequently as many as threc or four tools are operatiig on a casting at the same time. Fig. 1 shows one of the machine departments, 85 ft. wide and 1000 ft. long. In the foreground are the con- crete erecting floors, on which may be seen erected a large horizontal Corliss engine ready for dismantling to load on cars for shipment. Fig. 2 shows another erecting department, 60 x 100 ft., the floor of which consists of a concrete slab 4 ft. thick, where the vertical engines, such as blowing en- gines and mill and power engines, are erected. This spe- cial heavy floor was installed so that engines 50 ft. high could be erected without danger of settling out of align- ment during the process of erection. This erecting floor has two craneways, one 35 ft. above and the other 50 ft. above the floor. Four pairs of vertical cross compound blowing engines 48 ft. high have been erected on this floor at the same time. Vig. 3 shows the erecting floor where the rolling mills and machinery of special designs are machined, assem- bled and erected. In the foreground will be seen parts of a 600-ton metal construction. The tools throughout the machine shop are massive, and equal to the heaviest demands of modern machine practice, The Roll Shop. The roll shop is large and well lighted, with a capac- ity for an enormous tonnage. It is equipped throughout with special heavy Troll lathes of the company’s own de- sign and construction. Any class of roll and pinion work can be exetuted expeditiously. In Fig. 4, a view of this department, are shown mary shapes and sizes of sand, chilled and steel rolls, for rolling iron, steel, brass, cop- per, zine, rubber, glass and paper. Special water chilled rolls are also shown, and the Mesta patented vanadium mixer in process of Poe 4 ‘WAS \ a ~ een Largest Machine Tools Are Installed.

Lathes for this work must be massive and very accurate, as it is necessary that the necks of pinions of this kind be turned absolutely true. The Forge Shop, A large well equipped forge shop contains three large hammers, four forges and a large gas heating furnace. It is always well stocked with ingots from the open hearth steel melting department, comprising carbon stee] i Lathes in the Distance and Product in the Foreground, View in the Roll Shop. Typical Fig. 4 of any desired carbon, and nickel steel and vanadium steel. Particularly in its work with the latter alloy this company is favored as it makes its forgings at the same plant where the original ingot was poured. The advan- tages are ability to make prompt deliveries and the pos- session of the complete record kept of every heat, giving its chemical and physical analysis. THE IRON 467 Necks and Shrouds of Nickel Steel Pinions, Finishing the The Gear Department, One of the company’s specialties is the manufacture of gears for all purposes. Fifteen years ago it decided that the old method of making gears from wooden pat- terns was not sufliciently accurate to meet the demands of modern machinery, it consequently started to develop gear molding machines. ‘These machines have been per- fected and patented. and are now used by this company for making all cast Fig. 6 is shown a group of these gear molding machines making molds for both and For certain work for which required and where run with less clearance than can be obtained from even gears. In iron steel gears. classes of extreme accuracy is gears sears are recommended with molding a machine molder gear, cut the teeth first formed, machine. The gear cutting department is equipped for cutting spur gears of all sizes up to 20 ft. diameter, and bevel gears up to 16 ft. diameter. For all large spur and gear cutting gear planers are used. In making large cut gears the molds fer the castings are first made on the gear molding machines, leaving sufficient excess material on the that they can afterward be planed. The facilities for doing Ligh grade work in iron, steel and brass and for turning it out promptly are exceptional, however, on the gear bevel teeth so Fig. 6.—The Gear Molding Machine Department of the Foundry. Fig. 7.—View in the Top Floor of the Pattern Storage Building. as the iron, steel and brass foundries adjoin the gear cut- ting department, and dependence on outside foundries for sastings is avoided. The iron castings are all made of air furnace melted iron; steel castings are poured from acid open hearth steel furnaces, and are made of carbon steel, nickel ste.l, or vanadium steel, as required. The Pattern Shop. The pattern shop is interesting, and attracts atten- tion primarily because of its appearance of permanency. It has been built as nearly fireproof as possible. The heavy steel frame is embedded in concrete, forming a Fig. 8.—View in the Iron Foundry. THE IRON AGE Chipping Floor in the August 12, 1909 building practically indestructible, and the roof is of re- inforced concrete. Views in tke pattern shop were given in The Jron Age July 1, 1909, in connection with a-de- scription of its electrical equipment. On the top floor patterns for large engines, bed plates and the like are made. tin addition to the windows nround the sides of this room a large skylight extends the length of the building. It is very important in making large patterns to have overhead light in addition to the side light. Although this department is on the second floor the largest pattern can be handled easily to and from the foundry with the service of the traveling cranes. The equipment of machinery and tools is new throughout and of the latest designs. Many special tools have been installed for making patterns of unusual size and special designs, In one section of the first floor tooth blocks for the cear molding department are made. This floor is.also well lighted by windows on all sides, and is equipped with modern wood working tools. The offices of the foremen and the clerical forces are inclosed by concrete parti- tions, thus assuring safety of records, prints and designs from fire. The Pattern Storage. Fig. 7 shows the top floor of the pattern storage building, which consists of a number of rooms forming 60-ft. connections divided by fireproof walls. The doors between these sections are heavy steel and absolutely fireproof. In these rooms all small patterns are stored on long racks containing shelves to carry each different class of patterns in a compact space, but so systematized that any desired pattern can be instantly located and sent to the foundry across the bridges which connect the two buildings. The first floor is also arranged in 60-ft. sections, where all large patterns are stored. There is no connection between the first and second floors except from the outside. The Iron Foundry. Fig. 8 shows part of the iron foundry with the chip- ping floor and core ovens in the foreground. This buikl- ing preserves the symmetry of the entire arrangement of buildings. Its massive columns, immense hight and appearance of strength attract attention. The columns Foreground and Core Ovens at the Left. August 12, 1909 The Core Oven Furnaces and the Underground Storage for Cores. are spaced 20 ft, apart, forming 20-ft. bays, the span of the main foundry is 80 ft., over which travel 100-ton electric cranes. Along the side are numerous jib cranes, which are used for the lighter work, such as setting cores, handling flasks and supplies. In the side foundry, which is 60 ft. wide, where the smaller work 1s made, the equipment is about the same as in the larger part, the only difference being that the capacity is limited to 50 tons. The roof of the foundry is of reinforced concrete 4 in. thick, and simply finished with a found after a of service to be thoroughly waterproof and not to require the application of any other material on the surface. surface coat. It has been year The Core Ovens, The core ovens represent a new idea in construction. The furnaces and storeroom for the cores are entirely underground, as shown in Fig. 9. The furnaces are fired with coke, and the upper parts of the ovens are covered by rolling doors of steel, »as shown in Fig. 10. The Air Furnaces and Cupola.

Storage in the Pattern Building Basement, Novel in a plant of its kind are the large storeroonis in the basement of the pattern shop and storage build- ; { ; . a . , ; | Fig. 11.—A View Looking Down on the Brass Foundry. August 12, 1909 Fig. 12.—A General View in the Steel Foundry of the Mesta ings. There is 50,000 sq. ft. of floor space in these base- ments which have a depth of 14 ft. The side walls and floors are of reinforced concrete. The basement under the pattern shop, which is 60 ft. wide by 175 ft. long, is used as a general foundry storeroom. The heavier ma- terials are lifted out of this room by electric cranes di- rectly into the foundry. Ihe basement under the pattern storage building is 50 ft. w.de and extends the length of the foundry building. This basement is used for storing the different grades of sand used in the foundry. These storerooms have capacity for carrying a six months’ suv- ply of sand. By this arrangement sufficient sand can be stored in the fall before freezing weather sets in to supply the foundry throughout the winter. Sand stored in outside sheds invariably freezes to a certain depth, making it necessary for the foundryman to use sand that must be thawed and dried. The sand stored in this basement does not freeze even in zero weather. The sand is unloaded from the cars into these base- ments, as indicated in Fig. 18, by way of chutes and through openings in the side walls. Car tracks run on each side of the building. The sand is taken to the foundry by small cars with detachable bodies through tunnels, and is lifted out of the pits at the end of the tunnels by traveling cranes, as is also shown in Fig. 15. Notable Products of the Company. The plant of the Mesta Machine Company was de- signed and built especially for the building of heavy duty Elevation Fig. 13.—Sectional Machine Company. engines for blast furnaces, rolling mills and power plants, and also for the building of machinery used for the mau- ufacture of iron and steel. Some of the noteworthy in- stallations are as follows: Five horizontal cross com- pound blowing engines for the two 600-ton blast furnaces of the Illinois Steel Company, five vertical cross com- pound blowing engines for the two 600-ton blast furnaces of the Donora plant of the Carnegie Steel Company, 24 blowing engines for the Tennessee Coal, Iron & Railroad Company (said to be the iargest group of engines of one make in any plant in the United States), five blowing engines for the Cleveland Furnace Company, two pairs of 55 x 66 in. piston valve reversing engines for the Ten- nessee Coal, Iron & Railroad Company for driving the blooming and rail mills, one pair of 50 x 60 in. reversing engines for the Illinois Steel Company, three reversing engines for the National Tube Company, two pairs of twin tandem compound reversing enginés for the Bethle- hem Steel Company, one 44 and 76 in. by 60 in. cross compound engine for the Bethlehem Steel Company (the total weight of this engine was over 1,000,000 Ib and some of its individual castings weighed over 100 tons), one large tandem compound engine to drive the rail mill of the Inland Steel Company, one horizontal vertical engine to drive the rail mill of the Tennessee Coal, Iron & Railroad Company, one horizontal vertical Corliss en- gine which drives the billet mill of the Clairton Works of the Carnegie Steel Company. Showing the Sand Storage and Communication with the Foundry. August 12, 1909 The facilities for buildivg engines were strikingly illustrated a few months ago, when a 36 x 72 in. heavy duty Corliss engine with 100-ton flywheel, was completed ready for shipment in 30 days from receipt of order. The company has also built some of the principal mi'ls of the largest steel plants in the United States. A few of these worthy of mention are as follows: A 44-in. blooming mill for the Bethlehem Steel Company, a 40-in. slabbing mill for the National Tube Company, a 44-in. blooming mill for the La Belle Iron Works, and a large slabbing mill for the Cambria Steel Company. The company has also built some exceptionally large special machinery. One installation of this kind recently built was a 600-ton hot metal mixer for the Tennessee Coal, Iron & Railroad Company, claimed to be the largest mixer ever built. Organization, In addition to the offices at the works, the company has a main general office in Pittsburgh and branch offices in New York, Chicago and Birmingham. The officers are George Mesta, president; Charles J. Mesta, vice-presi- dent; W. D. Rowan, secretary, and J. O. Horning, treas- urer, Oe The Pratt & Whitney High Power Drill. A new high-speed drill with which no special chucks or sockets are required has recently been brought out by the Pratt & Whitney Company, Hartford, Conn., which is to be known as the High Power Drill. As shown The New High Power Drill Made by the Pratt & Whitney Com- pany, Hartford, Conn, in the illustration, the peculiar feature of the drill is the continuous twist from end to end with the increased twist in the shank, permitting it to be used in the standard Morse or other taper sockets. The drill is THE IRON AGE 471 ground on the shank and barrel, so that it has the same accurate alignment as the standard milled drill, as a result of which it will drill with the same accuracy. An even more effective contact with the socket is obtained with the twisted shank than with a full surface shank, and there is therefore less chance of slipping and greater driving power. With this drill the common troubles of breaking of tangs and slipping of drills in sockets are eliminated. Below are given the results of two tests which were made to determine the efficiency of the drill in machinery steel and cast iron, but no effort was made to find the limit of the tool. The third test was made to determine the effective contact between the shank and the socket and the general strength of the drill. Test No, 1. Diameter of drill, 144 in. Material drilled, machinery steel, 3% in. thick. Cutting speed per minute, 98 ft. Feed per revolution of drill, .0145. Inches drilled per minute, 4.2. Number of holes drilled, 100. At this point the drill was removed and found to be in practically as good condition as when the test was commenced. Test No, 2, Diameter of drill, 1% in. Material drilled, cast iron, 3 in. thick, Cutting speed per minute, 127 ft. Feed per revolution of drill, .0426. Inches drilled per minute, 14.9, Number of holes drilled, 211. At this point the drill was removed and found to be, as before, practically as good as before the test. Test No, 3. Diameter of drill, 1 in. Material drilled, cast iron, 2% in, thick. Cutting speed per minute, 156 ft. Feed per revolution of drill, .087. Inches drilled per minute, 51.9. In this test after drilling one hole the drill was re- moved and was found to be without a sign of a flaw and the cutting edges were still in good condition. The new High Power drills are made in all sizes from 5% to 3 in. diameter. The total length of the small- est is 9 in., of the largest 21% in. and the intermediate sizes in proportion. oe ____. The Break in the British Galvanized Sheet Market. In connection with the recent action of the Galvan- ized Sheet Association in Great Britain, discontinuing its price agreement, it is stated that the association ex- ercised almost complete control over the British market for galvanized sheets for more than four years. The annual capacity in galvanized product of the plants rep- resented in the association was 450,000 to 500,000 tons, and in 1907 the exports were valued at more than $34,000,000, falling to $27,000,000 last year. For the first half of 1909 they were $16,000,000. Following the dissolution of the association the price of No. 24 gal- vanized sheets fell from £12 10s. to £10 10s., and later £10 was done. The springing up of new competition, particularly from firms in, Scotland, South Wales and Lancashire, led to the breaking up of the agreement, the new firms refusing to co-operate with the association. The low prices made are much below the point of possi- ble profit to many manufacturers, but it is questionable if even this drastic action will bring about any early efforts for a new and more inclusive agreement. The market for black sheets has also naturally been de- moralized. ———___.»---@—___—_. The Engineering Standards Committee has issued the British standard specifications for cast iron pipes for hy- draulic power. Two classes of pipe are provided for, the greater number falling under class A, for pressures be- tween 700 and 900 Ib. per square inch. Class B takes in pipe for pressures from 900 to 1200 Ib. per square inch. Standard sizes of lengths, tees and bends are also given in the report.
