LUBRICATION AT SPENCER WORKS

Abstract

HER Majesty The Queen, accompanied by H.R.H. The Duke of Edinburgh, officially opened the Spencer Works of Richard Thomas and Baldwins Ltd., near to Newport, Mon., on October 26th. The remarkable story of how this, Britain's newest Steelworks, has risen in less than three years from the marshland of Monmouthshire to become the most technically advanced iron and steel plant in the world has been told in the national and international press and many technical journals—and will continue to be told. We are concerned here with details of the lubrication equipment which plays such a vital part in ensuring continuity of production without breakdowns, but a few of the important facts and figures about this new plant will serve to refresh readers memories and to emphasise the important role that lubrication has to play.
