History Being a massive fan of Beretta, and of it’s long history, I thought it might be fun to write my first list about some of the oldest companies that are still recognizable and in existence today.

10 Old Companies Still in Operation

I found the research quite interesting and I recommend that further reading on any of these entries is quite enlightening. It should also be noted that there are a number of other companies that far pre-date the existence of those on this list – they are, however, less known than the entries found here, and may make up a future list. Anyway, I hope you enjoy and I apologize for any glaring omissions. The history of Sotheby’s may be traced to 1744, when the English bookseller Samuel Baker held his first auction, which featured 457 books previously belonging to Sir John Stanley. Founder Thomas Twining began one of the first companies to introduce tea drinking to the English. The first factory founded in 1653, by David Anthonisz was named De Porceleyne Fles (The Porcelain Jar). English Home Page. Justice Laws. Motivation and Self Improvement.

Thomas J. Watson. Thomas John Watson, Sr.

Thomas J. Watson

(February 17, 1874 – June 19, 1956) was the chairman and CEO of International Business Machines (IBM),[2] who oversaw that company's growth into an international force from 1914 to 1956. Watson developed IBM's distinctive management style and corporate culture, and turned the company into a highly-effective selling organization, based largely around punched card tabulating machines. A leading self-made industrialist,[3] he was one of the richest men of his time and was called the world's greatest salesman when he died in 1956.[4] Early life and career[edit] Having given up his first job—teaching—after just one day, Watson took a year's course in accounting and business at the Miller School of Commerce in Elmira.

Watson then spent a very brief period selling sewing machines for Wheeler and Wilcox. One day my dad went into a roadside saloon to celebrate a sale and had too much to drink. NCR[edit] Head of IBM[edit] Watson was named chairman emeritus of IBM in 1956. Starfire® Systems, a leader in the field of Polymer-to-Ceramic™ technology. Industrial & Engineering Applications of Syalon Ceramics Guide. As modern industry continues to demand stronger, harder, more wear resistant and heat resistant materials, which will operate cost effectively in hostile environments, it has become essential to seek alternative engineering materials.

Industrial & Engineering Applications of Syalon Ceramics Guide

The discovery of silicon nitride in 1857 by Deville and Whaler caused no excitement among the engineering fraternity of the day. Yet the announcement more than a century later, in 1972, that an alloy of this same material had been found stimulated enormous interest and triggered off investigations on a worldwide scale. The reasons why the two events were heralded in such dissimilar ways gives us an insight into the developments that have taken place in our major industries. Modern industry requires stronger, harder, more wear resistant and heat resistant materials, which will operate cost effectively in more hostile environments than ever before. From Silicon Nitride to Sialon Unfortunately, silicon nitride did not lend itself to ease of fabrication. Welding. Sialon Ceramics Guide, Advanced Silicon Nitride Ceramics. SiAlONs are ceramic alloys based on the elements silicon (Si), aluminium (Al), oxygen (O) and nitrogen (N) and were developed in the 1970s to solve the problem of silicon nitride (Si3N4) being difficult to fabricate.

Sialon Ceramics Guide, Advanced Silicon Nitride Ceramics

As alloys of Si3N4, SiAlONs exist in three basic forms. Each form is isostructural with one of the two common forms of Si3N4, beta (β) and alpha (α) and with silicon oxynitride. The relationship between that of SiAlON and Si3N4 is similar to that between brass and pure copper. In the latter case, copper atoms are replaced by zinc to give a better and stronger alloy than the mother metal. Careers. Welcome to Research House. Club Jameco. Change Your Life.
