VISUAL DESCRIPTION
This black and white photograph captures a moment in industrial history, showcasing the robust machinery of The Incandescent Heat Co. Ltd., located on Cornwall Road in Smethwick, Birmingham. Prominently featured is a Town Gas-Fired Continuous Aluminum Billet Reheating Furnace with charging table and automatic discharge gear. This imposing piece of equipment represents the technological advancements of its time, designed to handle billets measuring up to 25" x 12" x 5". The heating chamber's dimensions are substantial at 55 ft. long and 36 in. wide, indicating the scale at which metalworking operations were conducted. The image exudes an air of efficiency and power inherent to mid-20th-century manufacturing processes that played a pivotal role in driving economic growth during the post-war era.
