Candle Making Machine, 18th Century
Machine to trim and polish candles. The manufacture of candles became an industrialized mass market in the mid 19th century. In 1834, Joseph Morgan, a pewterer from Manchester, England, patented a machine that revolutionized candle making. It allowed for continuous production of moulded candles by using a cylinder with a moveable piston to eject candles as they solidified. This more efficient mechanized production produced about 1, 500 candles per hour, (according to his patent . . with three men and five boys it will manufacture two tons of candle in twelve hours ). This allowed candles to become an easily affordable commodity for the masses.
