A Scene From America's Projector Carbon Center... X-ray reveals breaks and voids in positive projector carbon cores "The x-ray eyes of our inspectors are your assurance of perfect projector carbon cores" You can't judge a movie by its title. And you can't judge a projector carbon solely from the outside. That's why carbon inspectors in our plant in Fostoria, Ohio, test every carbon from VeryUohnson the inside out — with modern x-ray equipment. As an extra safeguard, our inspectors are paid a premium for every imperfect carbon they reject and scrap. Shown above is our x-ray room, through which all positive carbons must pass on a belt containing from 6 to 20 carbons, depending on size. The assignment is to weed out carbons with voids or -says VERYL JOHNSON "National" Sales Engineer breaks in their rare earth cores — the key to uninterrupted burning and maximum light quality. As a further inspection safeguard, operators of this x-ray equipment stay keen and alert by changing off every 30 minutes ! Quality manufacturing and precision testing are only a part of the National projector carbon story. For more than 45 years we have provided the motion picture theatre industry with unsurpassed technical service. Our Sales Engineers are equipped with, and are specialists in using, today's most modern test devices for assuring more screen light per projector carbon dollar!
