Description:
The object of this experiment was to investigate the possibility of
obtaining pre-setting data for the 1 Farnham Rolls'.
The experiment was carried out by applying certain deflections and
measuring the resulting radii of curvature. Thus curves of curvature
against deflection were produced for different sheet widths, and from
these curves attempts to produce a conical frustum with prescribed radii
were made.
The results obtained can not be applied to conical parts, but this test
served to indicate that it is possible to obtain pre-setting data for
various applications.
