Abstract: Any post-war planning concerning engineering and tooling is certain to include the photo-template process. This process is one of the many engineering short cuts developed as a result of the pressure of war production. It is concerned with the accurate, rapid, and economical reproduction of dimensionally stable engineering drawings, whether on a mass-production or single-piece basis; it completely eliminates the tedious layout step in the shop with its attendant cost in man-hours and liability to error, and cuts costs appreciably in other phases of production operations. At present it is largely used in aircraft manufacture, but its extreme flexibility and high accuracy, as shown by numerous examples, point to its use elsewhere. The method and materials used at the Lockheed Aircraft Corporation are described. Warnings are given, however, concerning certain hazards and difficulties; means of overcoming them are also given. Applications of this important engineering tool to other than aircraft fields are indicated.
