EACH CALCULATOR solves a particular frequently met problem in a simple yet accurate manner.
ANY COMPLEXITIES of the basic formula or method are built in and handled automatically by the instrument so that only a simple setting of dials to length, width, diameter, temperature, etc., is necessary.
EASY TO USE - SUPERB QUALITY - PRECISION MADE
We specialize in the design of high quality technical calculators for solving sometimes simple, but usually complex, frequently recurring problems common to many industries.
Our current range is shown in this booklet and all of them will be found to be tremendous time savers, up to date in design and technical detail, and capable of recovering their small cost in the time saving alone on the first few calculations.
CONSTRUCTION
Of the highest quality, precision made from non-warping white and clear acrylic, with main
dials 3 mm thick and subsidiary dials 1.5 mm thick. All scales and lettering are clearly
and sharply engraved, not printed, and are filled in multicolours to facilitate use.
METRIC AND U.S. MODELS
Standard instruments are calibrated in Imperial units, but most of them are now available
in exactly similar designs calibrated in S.I. Metric units and some calibrated in U.S.
gallons. The availability of Imperial, Metric or U.S. models is indicated for each
calculator.
CALCULATORS FOR ADVERTISING PURPOSES
Our standard instruments can be supplied engraved with clients’ name and advertising
copy in quantities of 100 or more at appreciable discounts, or for 50 or more we can gold
block these details on the plastic cases. Special calculators can be made to
customers’ individual requirements.
ON APPROVAL TERMS
Because the full capabilities and value of our instruments can only be appreciated by
actual handling and use, we are glad to supply on 10 days’ free trial to United
Kingdom business addresses who have an account with us. To private addresses and business
addresses who do not have an account with us, we can
supply against cash with order with a 10 day money back guarantee if not found suitable.
DELIVERY is normally by return of post.
