Industrial Revolution
Industry- organized economic activity connected
with the production, manufacture, or construction
of a particular product or range of products.
Industrialization- to introduce industry into (an
area) on a large scale.
Revolution- a dramatic change in ideas or
practice.
Industrial Revolution
The Industrial Revolution refers to the greatly
increased output of machine-made goods that began
in England in the middle 1700s. Before the
Industrial Revolution, people wove textiles by hand.
Then, machines began to do this and other jobs.
Soon the Industrial Revolution spread from
England to Continental Europe and North America.

Date: 1769
Inventor: James Watt
Significance: Provided an
efficient source of industrial
power
Extra Info: James Watt's improvements
in 1769 and 1784 to the steam engine
converted a machine of limited use, to
one of efficiency and many
applications. It was the foremost energy
source in the emerging Industrial
Revolution, and greatly multiplied its
productive capacity. Watt was a
creative genius who radically
transformed the world from an
agricultural society into an industrial
one. Through Watt’s invention of the
first practical steam engine, our modern
world eventually moved from a 90%
rural basis to a 90% urban basis.
Date: 1793
Inventor: Eli Whitney
Significance: Sped cotton production by
separating fibers from the seeds
Extra Info: Eli Whitney having newly
graduated from Yale University headed to
Georgia to make his fortune. By April, 1793
Whitney had invented the cotton gin. After
the invention of the cotton gin, the yield of
raw cotton doubled each decade after
1800. Demand was fueled by other
inventions of the Industrial Revolution,
such as the machines to spin and weave it
and the steamboat to transport it. By
midcentury America was growing threequarters of the world's supply of cotton,
most of it shipped to England or New
England where it was manufactured into
cloth.
Date: 1836
Inventor: Samuel Morse
Significance: Could send messages in a
short amount of time.
Extra Info: While a professor of arts and
design at New York University in
1835, Samuel Morse proved that
signals could be transmitted by wire.
He used pulses of current to deflect
an electromagnet, which moved a
marker to produce written codes on a
strip of paper - the invention of Morse
Code. Until 1877, all rapid longdistance communication depended
upon the telegraph. That year, a rival
technology developed that would
again change the face of
communication -- the telephone.
Date: 1851
Inventor: Isaac Singer
Significance: Speed up clothing
manufacturing
Extra Info: Isaac M. Singer was an inventor
with many patents who invented the first
home sewing machine.In 1850 Singer was
working in a Boston, Massachusetts,
machine shop when he was asked to
analyze a Blodgett & Lerow sewing
machine that had been brought in for
repair. Singer developed a new design
based on that machine, patented it in
1851, and cofounded (with Edward Clark)
the I. M. Singer Company to market it.By
1860 the Singer Manufacturing Company
had become the world's largest maker of
sewing machines, and by 1863 Singer had
received twenty patents for the machines.
Date: 1850s
Inventor: Henry Bessemer
Significance: Quickly and cheaply made steel
out of iron
Extra Info: Inventors realized that they
needed strong metals to build complicated
machinery. Steel was the best choice, but
it took some time to get it right. At the
beginning of the 18th Century - about
1700, Abraham Darby discovered that coal
could be partially burned to create coke,
which would create the steady, hot flame
required to work with iron and steel. In the
1740s, Henry Cort discovered "puddling"
as a way of making stronger pig iron. He
also was able to produce sheets of iron. It
wasn't until a hundred years later that
Henry Bessemer figured out a way to mix
cold air to remove the impurities that
weakened steel. His Bessemer converter
was able to produce stronger steel that
could be used in a wider variety of ways.
Blast of high-pressure air oxidizes impurities in molten
iron and converts it to steel
Date: 1876
Inventor: Alexander Graham Bell
Significance: Instant communication
Extra Info: Probably no means of
communication has revolutionized the
daily lives of ordinary people more than
the telephone. Alexander Graham Bell,
American inventor and teacher of the
deaf, most famous for his invention of the
telephone. Since the age of 18, Bell had
been working on the idea of transmitting
speech. In 1874, while working on a
multiple telegraph, he developed the
basic ideas for the telephone. His
experiments with his assistant Thomas
Watson finally proved successful on
March 10, 1876, when the first complete
sentence was transmitted: "Watson, come
here; I want you.”
Date: 1879
Inventor: Thomas Edison
Significance: Made possible long-lasting
indoor electric light
Extra Info: The modern world is an
electrified world. The light bulb, in
particular, profoundly changed human
existence by illuminating the night and
making it hospitable to a wide range of
human activity. The electric light, one
of the everyday conveniences that
most affects our lives, was invented in
1879 by Thomas Alva Edison. He put
together what he knew about electricity
with what he knew about gas lights
and invented a whole of electrical
system.
Date: 1860s
Inventor: Louis Pasteur
Significance: Increased the shelf life of milk
and other products and created the first
vaccines
Extra Info: If one were to choose among the
greatest benefactors of humanity, Louis
Pasteur would certainly rank at the top. He
solved the mysteries of rabies, anthrax,
chicken cholera, and silkworm diseases,
and contributed to the development of the
first vaccines. He debunked the widely
accepted myth of spontaneous generation,
thereby setting the stage for modern biology
and biochemistry. The process of
pasteurization was named after Louis
Pasteur who discovered that spoilage
organisms could be inactivated in wine by
applying heat at temperatures below its
boiling point. The process was later applied
to milk and remains the most important
operation in the processing of milk.
Date: 1904
Inventor:
Oliver and Wilbur Wright
Significance:
Air Travel was made possible
Extra Info: Orville and Wilbur Wright,
American inventors and aviation
pioneers, achieved the first
powered, sustained, and controlled
flight of an airplane on the morning
of December 17, 1904. In the two
years afterward, they developed
their flying machine into the world's
first practical fixed-wing aircraft,
along with many other aviation
milestones
Date: 1902
Inventor: Henry Ford
Significance: Made an automobile that
was affordable to the average person
due to his efficient assembly line.
Extra Info: Henry Ford realized he'd need
a more efficient way to mass produce
cars in order to lower the price. He
looked at other industries and found
four principles that would further their
goal: interchangeable parts,
continuous flow, division of labor, and
reducing wasted effort. Ford put these
principles into play gradually over five
years, fine-tuning and testing as he
went along. In 1913, they came
together in the first moving assembly
line ever used for large-scale
manufacturing. Ford produced cars at
a record-breaking rate.
Date: 1701
Inventor: Jethro Tull
Significance: Improved and more efficient
farming.
Extra Info: Jethro Tull was one of the first of scientific
farmers. He saw that the usual way of sowing seed
by scattering it across the ground was wasteful.
Many seeds failed to take root. He solved this
problem with an invention called the seed drill. It
allowed farmers to sow seeds in well-spaced rows
at specific depths. A larger share of the seeds took
root, boosting crop yields. He designed his drill with
a rotating cylinder. Grooves were cut into the
cylinder to allow seed to pass from the hopper
above to a funnel below. They were then directed
into a channel dug by a plough at the front of the
machine, then immediately covered by a harrow
attached to the rear. This limited the wastage of
seeding and made the crop easier to weed.
Date: 1825
Inventor: George Stephenson
Significance: Railroads spurred industrial growth by
giving manufacturers a cheap way to transport materials
and finished product.
Extra Info: 1814, Stephenson constructed his first
locomotive, 'Blucher', for hauling coal at Killingworth
Colliery near Newcastle. In 1821, Stephenson was
appointed engineer for the construction of the Stockton
and Darlington railway. It opened in 1825 and was the
first public railway. The following year Stephenson was
made engineer for the Liverpool to Manchester Railway.
In October 1829, the railway's owners staged a
competition to find the best kind of locomotive to pull
heavy loads over long distances. Stephenson's
locomotive 'Rocket' was the winner, achieving a record
speed of 36 miles per hour. The opening of the Stockton
to Darlington railway and the success of 'Rocket'
stimulated the laying of railway lines and the
construction of locomotives all over the country.
Date: 1877
Inventor: Thomas Edison
Significance: A technology that made the modern music
business possible. came into existence in the New
Jersey laboratory where Thomas Edison created the
first device to both record sound and play it back.
• Extra Info: Edison discovered the secret to recording
sound. Before there were CD players, there was the
phonograph. August 12, 1877 is the date popularly
given for Thomas Edison's completion of the model for
the first phonograph. Edison was trying to improve the
telegraph transmitter when he noticed that the
movement of the paper tape through the machine
produced a noise resembling spoken words when
played at a high speed. Experimenting with a stylus
(hard-pointed instrument like a large needle) on a
tinfoil cylinder, Edison spoke into the machine.
