Note: This is a sub-section of BTH
1920 February. Catalogue of DC motors up to 200 h.p.[1]
1920 September. Exhibited at the Machine Tool and Engineering Exhibition at Olympia with motors for machine tool driving. [2]
1926 Received an order for six electric motor-driven centrifugal blowers, which would be the largest so far manufactured in this country. They would be used on two motor ships which John Brown and Co were constructing.[3]
1932 Produced a very large synchronous motor for the Tata Iron and Steel Co of India. Rated at 7500 HP at 94 rpm, with a peak load capability of nearly 19,000 HP. It was designed, constructed, tested and made ready for shipment in just 9 weeks.
1945 Advert for electric motors with control gear for industrial use. Fabroil silent pinions. [4]
1946 Large motors were being produced at Rugby; 'industrial motors' in Birmingham; FHP motors in Coventry and Newcastle-under-Lyme.
Continued in AEI: Electric Motors and AEI: Motor and Control Gear
