The Printing press, is a machine by which text and images are transferred to paper or other media by means of ink. It was in Europe that printing first became mechanized when a printing press was invented in the Holy Roman Empire by the German Johannes Gutenberg around 1440, based on existing screw presses. Metal presses began to appear late in the 18th century, at about which time the advantages of the cylinder were first perceived and the application of steam power used to operate them.

It is from a Victorian mechanical engineering book of the 1880s. A steam hammer (or drop hammer) is an industrial power hammer driven by steam that is used for tasks such as shaping forgings and driving piles. The hammer is usually attached to a piston that slides within a fixed cylinder. This version has more than the usual workspace room around the anvil. The concept of the steam hammer was described by James Watt in 1784, but it was not until 1840 that the first working steam hammer was built.

An old 1800s engraving of a steam-driven, rotary, cylinder printing press that was used in the industrial revolution of the Victorian era. Germans Friedrich Koenig and Andreas Bauer designed and built their first cylinder press in the early 1800s. It was much faster than the existing flatbed presses. One of their first customers was John Walter of The Times newspaper. The first issue of The Times that used the new presses was published in 1814. The press was installed in secret to avoid sabotage by disgruntled press workers (luddites) who operated the existing presses.

Steam printing machines used by the weekly periodical, The Illustrated London News. There were two separate machines; one for printing one side of the paper, and the other for printing the other. These machines were powered by a six-horse power steam-engine. Each machine consisted of a great traversing table supported in an iron framework, and four cylinders, two of mahogany, two of iron. 1843 Stock Photohttps://www.alamy.com/licenses-and-pricing/?v=1https://www.alamy.com/steam-printing-machines-used-by-the-weekly-periodical-the-illustrated-london-news-there-were-two-separate-machines-one-for-printing-one-side-of-the-paper-and-the-other-for-printing-the-other-these-machines-were-powered-by-a-six-horse-power-steam-engine-each-machine-consisted-of-a-great-traversing-table-supported-in-an-iron-framework-and-four-cylinders-two-of-mahogany-two-of-iron-1843-image501465824.htmlRM2M3RMNM–Steam printing machines used by the weekly periodical, The Illustrated London News.

An old engraving of very large old sugar cane mill (press or crusher) of the 1800s. It is from a Victorian mechanical engineering book of the 1880s. Juice extraction by milling is the process of squeezing the juice from the cane under a set of mills using high pressure between heavy iron rollers (right). This press has its power supplied by a steam engine (left). Mills can have from 3 up to 6 sets of rolls (a set of mills is called a tandem mill or mill train). The juice is collected and sent for further processing.

An old engraving of a man operating a hydraulic press for compacting or compressing steel in the 1800s. It is from a Victorian mechanical engineering book of the 1880s. Molten steel run off into ingot carriages. These were placed under the press and could be compacted at force to ensure sharp castings, in this case in the production of steel wheels. The hydraulic press was invented in 1770 by English industrialist Joseph Bramah (1749-1814). It was developed by, amongst others, Sir Joseph Whitworth (1803 –1887), another English engineer, who devised a British Standard for screw threads.

London Main Drainage: the Concrete Mills at Plaistow, 1861.

Proposals to modernise the sewerage system had been made in the early 1700s but the costs of such a project deterred progress. However, after the Great Stink of 1858, Parliament realised the urgency of the problem and resolved to create a modern sewerage system.
