Shell Manufacture at Milwaukee Works
Factory workers producing artillery shells at International Harvester's Milwaukee Works. Original caption reads: "75-Millimeter Shell Manufacture. The shell conveyor line on which the shells are placed to dry after coming from the paint spray. Above and to the rear is a combination conveyor and storage unit for the finished shells, consisting of five conveyors at different levels. An automatic elevator carries the shell packages to the proper conveyor level and places them on the conveyor where they may move immediately to the shipping dock or remain in storage on the conveyor until such time as a sufficient stock has been accumulated for shipping." |
