Electrical equipment on machine tools
B. P. Graves · Electrical Engineering · 1940
THIS is an interesting opportunity to speak to electrical engineers, to praise them for the excellent motors and controls which have helped us to improve the performances of machine tools, and yet to prod them a bit about a few features of their designs which are obstacles to a greater use of electrical equipment. This paper is thus a partial report to electrical designers describing some of the recent applications of electrical equipment to machine tools and outlining a few of the problems which have been encountered.
