De Kievit, Menaldum of the "upright shaft" there are two "crown wheels" The upper "crown wheel", which has 35 cogs drives an Archimedes' screw via a "crown wheel". This screw was used to pump water into the polder. The lower "crown wheel", which has 35 cogs, drives a gearwheel with 32 cogs on the axle of an Archimedes' screw, which was used to drain the polder. The axle of the screw is diameter and long. The screw is diameter. It is inclined at 10°. Each revolution of the screw lifts of water. "De Kievit" is open to the public at any time it
Screw wire or rod is then cut to the proper length for the type of screw being made; this workpiece is known as a "blank". It is then cold headed, which is a cold working process. Heading produces the "head" of the screw. The shape of the die in the machine dictates what features are pressed into the screw head; for example a flat head screw uses a flat die. For more complicated shapes two heading processes are required to get all of the features into the screw head. This production method is used because heading has a very high production
