Morgan, Charles Hill
| (1831-1911), U.S. mechanical engineer and ASME's 19th president (1900-01), erected an English rolling mill in Worcester, Massachusetts, after studying wire making in England. With F. H. Daniels, he invented several devices but is best known for the Morgan mill, a continuous train of horizontal rolls (patented 1883). In 1887 he was president of the American Steel and Wire Company and, in 1891, organized the Morgan Construction Company to manufacture rolling-mill machines for sale worldwide. He was born Jan. 8, 1831, Rochester, New York, and died Jan. 10, 1911, Worcester, Massachusetts. |
