How TackS are Made.

tFrom the Mechanical EngineerI
The IRON Is received from the rolling
mills in sheets from three TO II inches
wide, and from feet to 9 feet in length.
the thickness varying according to the
kind of work into which it is to be made
from one-eighthto ne-thirty-secondo of an
inch. These sheets are all cut in about
thirty-inch pieces, and by immersion in
acid cleaned of the hard outside fiinty
scale. They are then chopped into strips
OF width corresponding to the length
of the nail or tack required. Supposing
the tack to be cut is an eight-ounce car
pet tack, the strip of iron, as chopped
and ready for the machine, would be
about eleven-slxteenths of an inch wide
and 30irches long. This piece is placed
firmly i'll the feeding apparatus, and by
this arrangement carried between the
knives of the machine. At each revolu-
tion of the balance wheel the knives cut
off a small piece from the end of this
plate. The piece cut off is pointed at
one end, and square for forming the
head at the other. 1t is then carried
between two dies by the action of the
knives, and these dies, coming together.
form the body of the tack under the
head. Enough of the iron projects be-
yond the face of the dies to form the
head, and while held firmly by them. a
lever strikes this projecting piece into a
round head. This is all done during
one revolution of the wheel, and the
knives, as soon as the tack drops from
the machine, are ready to cut off another
piece. These machines are run at the
rate of about 250revolutions per minute.
The shoe nail machines, for cutting
headless shoe nails, are run at about
800 revolutions per minute, and cut
from three to five nails at each revolu-
ton
