Chapter w.


There are six divisions Of the
studebaker Engineering Depart
ment:
The Designing and Drafting DI-
vision:
The MetalIographic Division:
The Chemical Analysis Division;
The Physical Test Division;
The Experimental Car Test Di-
vision:
The Electrical Division.
In the Designing and Drafting Di-
vision the plans for Studebaker cars
are worked out on paper and trac-
ings.
Studebaker engineers measure
strains and stresses to the very
ounce They know exactly how
many pounds. of pressure are car
ried by each bearing They know
how much bending strain is placed
on the chassis frame at sixty miles
an hour on a rough road with seven
passengers. They know TO the frae-
tional part of an ounce the turning
or twisting strain that is put on
rear axle shaft by sixty-horse-
power six-cylinder motor ON Is
per cent grade at from to 60 miles
per hour.
The unforeseen emergency Is al
ways provided for. The Designing
and Metallographic Divisions work
ing together make every one of the
1000 parts which go into a Stude-
baker ear several times stronger
than will ever be necessary to meet
the demands of average servic.
Studebaker metallurgists specify
the kind of steel which ut the lowest
possible weight win meet all the
strains and stresses of actual SER
vice.
This brings us to the Metallic
graphic Division.
4 piece OF steel Is cut off aud bur-
nisbed, and then photographed from
one hundred to one thousand times
larger than actual size. The satin
smooth structure OF the steel is made
to stand out like the grain liz g piece
of cake, the strength ana character
of the steel being known to the ex-
pert by the character OF the grain.
Next comes the Division which
studies steel by Chemical Analysis.
Chemists dissolve pieces of steel in
acid solvents and determine exactly
the proportions of their different al
Toys. The quantities OF nickel,
chromium, vanadium and carbon
are all determined with the exact
ness OF science.
Then in the Physical Test Division
the actual strength OF steel is test
ed. Giant machines are used TO
break and pull apart pieces Of steel,
and the force necessary TO bend or
break the steel is measured to a
pound.
The great steel mills of the United
States are asked TO furnish the kind
OF steel that viii meet Studebaker
requirements. They are asked to
manufacture this steel with Ger
tain amount of alloy to give il the
necessary quality demanded.
But the Studebaker Engineering
Division is not satisfied with the raw
material which il receives from the
steel mills II develops the grain OF
steel by its own various heat-treat-
ing and forging processes.
Remember. there are two things
which determine the properties of
Steel First, the alloy which enters
into lis makeup: and second, the
heat-treatine or tempering process
through which il must pass to III 1t
