Interpretation:
The reason should be explained that why the machine manufactures of horn combs often become unsuccessful.
Concept introduction:
The horn is a non uniform natural plastic material obtained from the livings. It had a wide application in Europe and England for the formation of daily use materials like spoons, lantern windows, combs, buttons and many decorative items. However, in recent days the manufacturing of horn products are least found.
This material is not the same as synthetic plastic but it is much relevant to the plastic as its importance and uses has raised the necessity of substitute plastic materials.
Answer to Problem 1.1Q
The horn material has low flow ability and lack of dimensional consistency which is not suitable for the formation of combs.
Explanation of Solution
The horn comb makers of Massachusetts were trying the best with the machine and manufacturing method of comb but the production could not become successful. It is because the fixation of clamps and cutter movement under the production of combs requires a flat surface, but the horn materials are neither flat nor uniform and they lack proper size and flexibility too.
Further the wastage due to different shapes and sizes were also causing problems in production. The dimensions of horns are non uniform and they have low flow ability which could not give proper firmness to the materials. The teeth were easily breaking and the comb could get deformity itself.
Thus, the properties of horn material were responsible for unsuccessful production of horn combs.
