UPSETTING MACHINES

  Chris Faulkner Like many other subscribers, I've learned a
  great deal from the continuing discussion of coining technology.
  A couple of weeks ago, in the course of distinguishing between
  roller and rocker presses, Dick Johnson mentioned the
  importance of the upsetting machine in preparing suitable
  blanks for striking. This prompts two questions. I am curious
  to know when the upsetting machine was first introduced.
  Secondly, I would also like to know what other, related kinds
  of manufacturing industries might have made use of such
  technology."
