CONTRIBUTE NEW PAPER, TIMBER MACHINES
PERPETUAL-MOTION MACHINE PRODUCES FINE FIBER -- Leningradskaya Pravda, No 77,
31 Mar 50
The Leningrad Plant imeni Vtoroy Pyatiletki, restored after the war, is
operating successfully. Although formerly it produced only spare parts and
the simplest units for papermaking machines, it now turns out 12-roll calen-
ders and other complex units. Currently, the plant's designers are working
on a perpetual motion machine for making fine fiber. The production of this
machine will mean a great step forward in the paper industry.
The plant has fulfilled its pre-election pledges. In 2 months it turned
over to th_ state more than 400,000 rubles' profit.
The machine shop has been particularly resourceful. Having received an
order for parts for a condenser-paper-making machine, the shop adopted a new
technique of machining the apertures in the rolled-surface bearings. Instead
of using the boring machines., which were inadequate in number, the shop car-
ried out separate operations on ordinary turning lathes.
DESIGNS NEW CUTTIPTG MACHINE -- Izvestiya, No 75, 29 Mar 50
A new and original machine for cutting underbrush in felling areas has
been designed by a group of scientists at the Leningrad Forestry Engineering
Academy imeni S. M. Kirov. It is driven by a high-frequency electric motor.
TRUCK OPERATES EASILY IN WINTER -- Leninskoye Znamya, No 73, 11. Apr 50
The Leningrad Forestry Engineering Academy imeni S. M. Kirov, and Gip-
rolestrans (State Institute for the Planning of Timber Transport) have com-
pleted testing of their new semicaterpillar timber-hauling truck.

The machine has undergone lengthy experimentation under difficult winter
conditions. Its average speed is 18 kilometers per hour unloaded and 8z kilo-
meters per hour with a load volume of 12 cubic meters. It has been recommended
for series production.
INVENTS HIGH-DUTY CHAIN-MAKING flACHINE -- Trud, No 78, 1 Apr 50
In 1948, P. Fadin, a fitter who services electric saws and chopping,
timber-skidding, and trimming machines at the Leningrad Plant imeni Kirov,
built an automatic machine for the production of chains for timber-floating
operations. Later, he improved it by constructing another model which mechan-
izes the operation of unwinding and cutting the wire. As a resu_t, production
was increased 20 times.
Fadin's machine was tried successfully at the Lenles Transit and Floating
Office, all of whose shops were subsequently transferred to the production of
this type of machine. Following this, production in Lenles underwent a revolu-
tion. -- Golubev, Lenles Transit and Floating Office
COMPLETES FIVE-YEAR PLAN -- Leninskoye Znamya, No 220, 6 Nov 50
The Onega Machine-Building Plant has completed its Five-Year Plan. It
has turned out a number of complex machines for the timber industry.
PRODUCES SKIDDING WINCH -- Pravda, No 278, 26 Nov 49
The Onega Machine-Building Plant has begun mass production of the high-
duty TL-3 skidding winch, designed by the chief engineer, A. N. Bryzgalov.
The winch is equipped with an internal combustion motor and can skid 40-50
cubic meters of timber per shift on 10-12 liters of fuel. This represents
12 times the capacity of KT-12 tractor.
The winch is mounted on a sled. To move it from place to place, the
drum cable is hooked to a tree stump; the motor winds the cable on the drum,
causing the machine to be pulled over to the stump.
MAKES THREE TYPES OF NEW HAULING ENGINES -- Leninskoye Znamya, No 1, 1 Jan 50
In 1949, the Onega Machine-Building Plant put out the following new equip-
ment for the timber industry: three types of hauling engines -- narrow gage,
broad gage, and light; winches; and chains for timber hauling. Annual pro-
duction exceeded the plan by oie million rubles.
