Excerpt from Installing Efficiency Methods
In this book Mr. Knoeppel undertakes not the mere declaration of principles, but the exact definition of practice. He does not explain why greater efficiency should be sought in industrial plants; that has been ably argued already. He describes what the actual methods are that increase the efficiency of a manufacturing establishment, and how they are put into practical effect.
The whole exposition undertakes to answer completely the questions many a manufacturer has put to himself or others, hitherto without satisfying answer. These questions arc: what is the first thing an efficiency engineer does when he comes into a plant on the first morning of his engagement - and what is the next thing, and the next, and the next? How does he find out where to begin the work of betterment, and what does he do when he has found it?
This is what Mr. Knoeppel explains step-by-step, and chapter-by-chapter.
As originally prepared the material appeared in a series of articles published in The Engineering Magazine during the year 1914. In this volume the matter is much expanded, and to a considerable extent recast. The first five chapters, which give vividness and a sense of concrete application to the whole thing, are new, except the list of questions for self-examination in Chapter V. The chapter on Auxiliary Devices for the Planning Department (XIV) and the supplementary chapter on Costs (XIX) are here published for the first time, while the chapter on the Efficiency Clearing House (XVIII) is considerably enlarged, and minor interpolations amplifying or clarifying the sense have been introduced at many points. Furthermore, new charts, diagrams, and illustrations to the number of thirty or more have been added, thus making the book presentation of much increased value even to those who have followed the series in the magazine.
The earnest purpose always and everywhere has been to give wholly frank and thoroughly practical working instructions and explanations, covering the entirety of efficiency practice, as tested and proven in many important and successful undertakings carried out by the author. This purpose both Mr. Knoeppel and his editors sincerely hope has been attained.
