Speed Up War Effort
Engineers Now Battling Friction Heat, Cold Speed,

fabrication engineers, who once
devoted their efforts to selling in
dustrial lubricants, are now engaged
in battle against friction, heat,
cold, dust, dirt, moisture and water
in the nations war production fac
tories, the Standard OIL Company
of New Jersey revealed recently in
outlining some of the unusual ways
in which these specialists have
speded up war production through
eliminating costly shutdowns, pre-
venting undue wear of manufac-
turing equipment and cutting down
waste and inefficiency.
With war production machines
operating at high speeds and under

gineers explained. Much of our war
production equipment requires spe-
cial greases and oils for fabrication.
Grease factories are working over

has taken huge strides in recent
years as technolOgiSts have turned
out new lubricants that will mimi
mize wear of war machinery, pre-
vent shutdowns and promate over

One Standard of New Jersey 1u-
IRRIGATION engineer not long ago
found reduced production in plant

The delay was caused by the break

to the use of an incorrect die lubri-

employed the shutdowns ceased and
production rose substantially.
In chamical plant making phos-
phorous for flame throwers and in
cendiary bombs production was de-
layed by faulty fabrication Of bear

fabrication engineer found that the

unsatisfactory lubricant. He sug-
