Folk -hEY are 40 millimeter anti-aircraft cannon; produced in quantity for the first time in the U.S.A. by Chrysler Corporation, and installed on fighting snips, on shore defenses, and goiog with the armies into action on land. We saw the gun for the first time at the Frankford Arsenal on January 4, 1941. It had nerer been made in large quantities. Its draw ings and specifications were not designed for volume manufacturing methods. Our first step toward making them in large numbers tut rmsT TiM ' .jPryfSa&S'SV was to re-dimension erery part to meet our volume production requirements. To help speed this work, one of the guns was promptly shipped to us at Detroit with the existing drawings and specifications for its more than 1300 parts. When the gun ar rived it was taken apart and studied piece by . Eiece to determine how each put could best c made. At the same time our engineers and draftsmen began the new drawings and speci fications for all the parts. On February 3, came an order from the V. S.-Navy to build a pair of test guns at once. As work on these first two guns ad- . vanced, our technicians and production spe cialists continued their efforts toward simpli- ' fication of construction and assembly, ond determined the tools and equipment that would be required for large quantity pro duction. A study of the gun by our planning and purchasing specialists indicated that the mak ing of more than half the parts could be sub contracted to other companies. We began at once to place orders with some 1836 subcon tractors, located in 281 towns in 30 states. On June 20, 1941, we were authorized to set up to build the gun in two types water cooled, twin mounted guns for the Nary, and aircooled, mobile mounted guns with single barrels for the Army. The two test guns os which we had been working were now completed. Within ten days they were tested by the U.S. Army Ord- . nance Department and approved. Plymouth, Dodge, De Soto and Chrysler plana were given their assignments to manu- CANNON BY CAR AND TRUCK PRODUCTION METHODS facture certain parts of the guns that were best suited to their facilities. As gun production got under way the ex perience gained in years of car and truck R reduction, and the cooperation of Army and ary engineers, sided us in developing manu facturing short-cuts which saved much time, material and use of machine tools. One part formerly machined from solid brass was changed to a combination of steel and bronze, saving 30,000 pounds of prechMS brass per month. We formed the gunsight plate from pow dered metal. This was faster, saving not only machine time but material, too. We made the tlash-hider from a plain steal tube instead of a solid forging, taring greatly in time and over 50 of the material. Gun barrel drilling time was cut la halt A STORY FROM THE SOUTH rAQFIC and rifle grooving was reduced from sis hours to forty-five minutes. Many other time and material savins; short-cuts were worked out as gun production moved ahead. The care and precision with which each part is made enables us to put the guns together in one-thirtieth the time required before we applied quantity production methods.
