  • Century American Machinery and Machine Tool Building
    From Depression to Globalization: Reconfiguring 20th Century American Machinery and Machine Tool Building Philip Scranton, Rutgers University Prologue Practical Machinist: 06-14-2003, 11:51 AM Let's talk about Machine Tool Making. 1. The industry is Capital Intensive. A machine tool maker has a huge amount invested in plant and equipment. 2. The industry is Labor Intensive. Almost all the workers are highly skilled and not only that, each worker has to have significant experience working in the specific shop making that company's machines. 3. The Industry is cyclic. Some years there is a big backlog of orders. Some years, there is hardly anything for the skilled and valued workers to do. 4. The "Technical" competition is Brutal. As soon as a new machine design is fit for production, some competitor brings out a newer design with faster spindle speeds or faster motions or some other feature that he touts relentlessly in the trade publications. A Machine tool can be rendered obsolete by the time the first article is being crated up on a maker's loading dock. 5. The reverse of this can happen. A machine tool maker can devise a highly sophisticated design that just doesn't sell. Giddings and Lewis has had this happen to them several times and Davenport Machine had it happen with a servo-controlled, multi-spindle automatic bar machine. 6. During slow times, a machine tool manufacturer can be in competition with slightly used machine of his own manufacture. This is happening right now. None of the above points have anything to do with the government, and the best of the foreign competition suffers all of the above situations.
