Stork Moves Service And

Repair Shop To Schiedam

Stork-Werkspoor Diesel bv (SWDiesel) of Amsterdam has moved its Service and Repair Work- shop, formerly located in Rotterdam for the past 25 years, to the Wilhel- minahaven in Schiedam, The Ne- therlands. All service and repair work for The Netherlands and Bel- gium will now be carried out at the new location, which covers approxi- mately 3,000 square meters.

One of the major considerations for moving to this new location was to have deep water adjacent to the workshop. The Wilhelminahaven, located on Holland's major waterway between Rotterdam and

Europoort, enables customers to moor their vessel next to the new building, where the water depth is more than seven meters (23 feet) at

SWDiesel's own pier.

Brochure Offered By Baldt

Baldt Inc., Chester, Pa., has pub- lished a new 12-page four-color fa-

Copper Blast would like to dust off your blasting budget.

Dust (shown here from silica sand) means lower cutting efficiency and visibility and increased health hazards and clean-up costs.

COPPER BLAST (in use here) has very little dust, is low in free silica, cuts 30-50% better than lower-quality slag abrasives and up to four times better than many silica sands

We can tell you how much the dust in your present abrasive is costing and how much you can save by using COPPER BLAST.

COPPER BLAST is a low free silica, low dust abrasive with a 30%-50% cutting advantage over lower-quality slags. It cuts up to four times faster than many silica sands. With COPPER

BLAST, job time goes down and cost effectiveness goes up.

The first step could be our COPPER BLAST Value Worksheet.

Using your project figures, you can see how much dust particles — which do no work! — are costing you. We'll also show you how COPPER BLAST can save time and money on your jobs plus the results of laboratory tests on several kinds of abrasives.

COPPER BLAST is manufactured in a new, high-tech plant and adequate supplies are always available throughout the West and Midwest.

For your COPPER BLAST Value Worksheet, or for more infor- mation. call or write James D. Hansink, Manager, Construction

INDUSTRIAL

INTERCOMS

FOR MARINE

COMMUNICATIONS

Designed originally to provide U.S. industry with intercoms which would deliver clear, dependable voice communication under the most severe operating conditions. ADCO units have earned wide acceptance in many segments of the marine industry.

Typical installations are aboard ship—bridge to deck or engine room, control center to diving bell—on offshore oil platforms—and throughout repair yards, dry docks, piers and storage areas.

What makes ADCO intercoms different is their ability to perform efficiently regardless of high ambient noise, weather or temperature extremes. Their heavy-duty cast aluminum cases are built to withstand rough usage—and are both weather and corrosion-proof.

Since each unit is a self-contained station which receives, amplifies and transmits the signal, intercom systems can include many stations over very long distances. Installation is simple and practical: each unit plugs into a nearby AC or DC power source, then is connected by ordinary low voltage 2-wire cable.

Phone or write for bulletin outlining complete range of models available.
