Russell Hobbs - Optec Elements 031
Heating Element from the Worlds first digital 'kettle'.
The electronic components mounted directly onto the layers of glass based inks printed onto Stainless Steel. Every layer fired at 850c
All items were made in the factory.
We had four furnaces in this clean room to make the world leading 3 kW 'Flat Element' using 'Thick Film' Technology.
Great invention developed, manufactured successfully in volume in Britain beating everyone else in the world then relocated to China by the new American owners to fail and disappear without trace.
Another example of 'Money men' wrecking a successful British industry!
