| THEMA | Beschreibung |
| TEXT | These works were established in 1883 for the production of high-class boiler work. The buildings comprise one large central erecting shop 190 feet long, with machine shops on each side, and other sheds extending from the main blocks into the yard. There is a railway siding into the works from the Glasgow and Paisley Joint Lines, and from it branches are led into the various shops. It is interesting to note that the works have been lighted by electricity ever since their establishment eighteen years ago. The shops are equipped with special machine tools of modem description, including hydraulic flanging plant capable of dealing with the heaviest plates used in the construction of steam boilers. This plant is used not only for the flanging of the plates required for all the boilers made in the works, but is also employed in turning out a large quantity of flanged work for customers. The firm is engaged in the manufacture of boilers of all types suitable for use on board ships. The manufacture of dry-back boilers and other multitubular types has also been a speciality with this firm since its foundation, and great numbers have been made for electric and other installations on land, both in this country and abroad. Feed heaters and all the other accessories in connection with steam plant also form a large part of the business done by the firm. |
