| Corning Glass Ribbon Machine, 1928 |
Saw this image on Construction Physics and the title intrigued me, so off to Google I go, and look what I found:
The Ribbon Machine: A Corning invention that revolutionized how lightbulbs were made
Corning Incorporated
This machine is 75 feet long. While this particular machine has been retired, there are similar machines still in use. Worldwide, annual light bulb production is around two billion bulbs, a substantial portion these days are LEDs.
