PATENT IMPROVED Lithographic Cylinder Gripper Machine, For Chromo, Chalk, or ordinary work, capable of producing from 500 to 1,000 Impressions per Hour. The ADVANTAGES of the LITHOGRAPHIC MACHINE may be briefly stated as, 1. FACILITY IN MAKING READY-Owing to the great simplicity of the mechanical arrangements, and entire absence of complex movements, the stone can be adjusted with perfect ease-in fact, the time required is scarcely more than on an ordinary Press, thus enabling short numbers to be worked with economy. 2. THE ROLLERS being made from the very best French leather, great uniformity of pressure is obtained, causing so little damage to the work on the stone as to allow as many as 20,000 impressions to be taken from a single transfer. In many cases the quantity printed has far exceeded that number. 3.-VARYING SPEEDS.-A pair of Cone Pulleys and Countershaft, &c., may be used, by means of which the Printer can change the speed, so as to yield any given number of impressions per hour. 4. THE INKING APPARATUS is entirely self-acting, and the damping as nearly so as experience warrants. If desired, the damping can be entirely self-acting; but it is open to many objections, especially in the fine descriptions of colour work. The supply of ink is varied at will with the greatest nicety. 5. REGISTERING COLOUR WORK.-In registering colour work, points on the Cylinder and guides on the Feedtable are used; the Cylinder stopping at every revolution sufficient time to enable the layer-on to point with the greatest accuracy. The position of the Feed-table and the stopping of the Cylinder are peculiar to this Machine alone. 6. STONE NEVER LOST SIGHT OF.-The Stone is never lost sight of by the Printer. This very great advantage is possessed by no other Machine. This Machine is extensively used in London, Bristol, Birmingham, Dublin, Belfast, Derby, Nottingham, Sheffield, Glasgow, Edinburgh, Leeds, Manchester, Liverpool, Bradford, &c., and is manufactured in sizes for Printing Stones, varying from 24×18 up to 40X60.
