Re: 670-680 Manufacturing; Manufacture of products for specific uses The attached PDF includes the changes approved by EPC in EPC Exhibit 132-25, dated October 22, 2009. That exhibit incorporated some changes to 687 that had been proposed as part of changes to the 640s in EPC Exhibit 131-23, dated May 15, 2009. In addition, this exhibit includes the relevant parts of EPC Exhibit 132A-22.1 on hats, dated January 28, 2010. The exhibit features the DDC 23 version of standard subdivisions. Indexing of topics in 687 Clothing and accessories has been coordinated with those topics in 391 Costume and personal appearance and in 646.3-646.7 Clothing and accessories, where I worked with Joan Mitchell and Winton Matthews. At EPC Meeting 132, there was the following discussion: Lyn McKinney: With 681.761, condoms look out of place, since they don’t seem to be “equipment.” Giles Martin: This is not the main number for condoms, but the manufacturing number. Winton Matthews: Could we add something like surgical dressings? Giles Martin: I’ll look at adding surgical dressings to the including note at 681.761. I’ve checked, and the manufacture of surgical dressings would not go in 681.761, but in 677.8 Surgical gauze and cotton. So we can’t add it here, and we can’t find another good example for 681.761, so we’ve left the including note alone. 670 Manufacturing 670 670 Manufacturing Including planning and design for manufactured products Class here manufactured products Class military applications in 623; class planning and design for specific kinds of products in 671–679; class the arts in 700.

Norwood, Mass., U.S.A. ; 155688 PREFACE This book has been written primarily to meet a need arising from the introduction of the study of textiles into the curriculum of the high school. The aim has been, there- fore, to present the subject matter in a form sufficiently simple and interesting to be grasped readily by the high school student, without sacrificing essential facts. It has not seemed desirable to explain in detail the mechanism of the various machines used in modern textile industries, but rather to show the student that the fundamental principles of textile manufacture found in the simple machines of primitive times are unchanged in the highl}^ developed and complicated machinerj^ of to-day. Minor emphasis has been given to certain necessarily technical paragraphs by printing these in type of a smaller size than that used for the body of the text.

  • Paisley Cotton Talk
    RLHF Journal Vol.15 (2009) 1. The Development of the Cotton Industry in Paisley Stuart Nisbet Preface It is a common difficulty in Scottish history and archaeology that big successes become so well-known that we lose sight of how they actually started. Such is the case with cotton mills. This paper asks how the vast ‘Paisley Mills’ of Coats and Clark actually developed. This will take us back through a potted evolution of the textile mill, leading up to the development of Paisley’s world-wide success in textile making. The story is very wide-ranging, but as the emphasis of the 2008 conference is on built heritage, we will look at the earlier period through a quick tour of the buildings or physical evidence. The development of the cotton mill can be seen through an evolution of five groups of textile ‘mill’: 1. Weaving Mills or ‘Manufactories’ 2. Thread Mills 3. Lint Mills 4. Wash Mills, Bleachfields and Printfields 5. Spinning Mills Early Ferguslie Mills and Paisley Canal c.1830 (Courtesy of Glasgow University Archive Services Ref. GB 248 UGD 199). Introduction What is a cotton mill? Today it can mean anything from a water-powered factory to a warehouse up the A9 which sells tartan rugs, shortbread and fiddle music. How does a cotton mill compare with earlier textile mills, such as thread mills and lint mills? Does a water powered mill differ from a steam powered mill? Is a Paisley cotton mill the same as a New Lanark cotton mill? Such questions can be answered in terms of industrial history or archaeology.
