A short illustrated article from China Pictorial (1965) about the Chingwei Textile Machinery Plant, built during China's First Five-Year Plan. It reports that the plant's machines equipped 162 cotton mills, and that it produced an automatic shuttle-changing silk loom and equipment for making viscose, nylon and vinylon fibres. Photographs show the plant building, installation of a viscose filament spinning machine, spinneret manufacture and two engineers.
