Description

8 x 10" image of large machine. Caption on back states: This 200-ton skin milling machine carves complete sections of Arrow wing skins and their stringers (like ribs) from solid slabs of metal. Method makes sing stronger and smoother (fewer rivets) and is competitive costwise with fabricated structures. Completed unit is seen on right, while on left is the template over which tracer moves, automatically directing the cutting head on right as it chews through metal at high speed.
