METHODS
Are AT PEAK
Chrysler Engineers
Tell of New Tools
Modern Needs

Manufacturing precision has reach
ed q height Of accuracy in American
automobile production that in the
opinion Of competent judges was
never before attained in any large
industry.
Chrysler engineers, who have been
foremost in the evolution OF scien-
tific processes By which this pre-
cision was gained, enuaerate a long
list OF tools and machines which were
invented 20 deliver quantity produc-
tion under the new standards Of min
ute exactness and also Of new ghages
which were required to test the pro-
ducts thus manufactured.
Every branch Of science has been
~ransacked for aid in the development
Of the new processes. Ingenious
machines were created. MinuteIy
exact scales and gauges were built.
The latest discoveries in photo
graphy, in ultra-ray research, in
delicate gauge adjustment, in weights
and measures, are utilized TO secure
equipment suitable for the higher
standards Of accuracy.
Chryslcr manufacturing practices
and processes together constitute
standardized quality" a principle
which enforces the same scrupulous-
~ close limits-the same rigid rule
Of engineering exactness-the same
absolute accuracy and precision in
the manufacturing of every part Of
all Chrysler models-"52", "62", "72'
and imperial "S0r.
A very interesting illustration or
the rigid requirements laid down for
Chrysler parts Is to be found in the
eamshaft, which Is subjected. after
manufacture. to no fewer than forty
nine different tests with delicate
scientific instruments calculated to a
precision Of two-tenths Of one-thous-
andth Of an inch-the size of n hu-
mar hair split ten times. The cam
shaft is carefully checked for exact
dimensions of its bearings. for the
degree of elevation. contour and tim
ing Of It's individual cams, for re-
s~istance and for the position Of its
integral gears.
The accuracy Of manufactured
parts naturally depends on the ac-
curacy Of the tools and instruments
employed. These tools and instru-
mcnts are s~crupulously examined in
the Chrysler tool guage department
before vcr seeing active service.
Amplifiers and microscopes. the
most costly cameras, balances so fine
that they register the difference in
weight ~ a scrap Of paper before
and after a pencil mark is put on it
every device for accuracy that
scientists have developed Is az the
side Of the inspectors who safeguard
Chrysler's output.
