A.W Faber, later Faber-Castell, was a German manufacturer of slide rules, starting in 1882, that began as A.W. Faber pencil factory as early as 1761. Slide rules started out as boxwood, with celluloid facings added in 1897. English manuals were translated by C.N. Pickworth for American distributor in Newark, New Jersey, USA. In 1905, the name was changed to Faber-Castell. Celluloid laminated mahogany was used from 1902 to 1912, followed by celluloid faced Pearwood. In 1952 all-plastic (Geroplast) versions were introduced. The duplex slide rules began in 1961. The most complex slide rule was the multi-colored Novo Duplex 2/83N. When electronic calculators first appeared, they tried manufacuring a hybrid slide rule with a four function calculator on the back side (the TR-1). When the TR-3 came out with scientific functions and the users stopped using the slide rule side, and the slide rule factories were shut down. The TR-4 was purely just a calculator in a slide rule shape. Faber-Castell still has factories in Germany and distribution houses in over most of the world. More Faber-Castell history and timeline.

Summary of Function By Dieter von Jezierski and Rodger Shepherd

Donated by Henry (Hank) Benoit, Kingston, Ontario, Canada
Henry Benoit (BSEE 1968, MSc 1970) had a hands-on biomedical engineering career in OB/GYN research at University of Toronto and clinical engineering at University of Ottawa Heart Institute. His graduate work focussed on electroanesthesia and electrosleep. During the 70s he applied an early Fairchild charge-coupled device to observation of internal organs and designed portable instrumentation based on the RCA COSMAC computer chip set and the FORTH language. Later he contributed to excimer laser applications in cardiac ablation surgery and integration of electronic technologies into clinical settings.
Hanks comment on this apparatus: "The 989 is a beautiful piece (to an engineer). My wife never saw it in that light. It was purchased for coursework in electromagnetic fields. It offered the contiuously-variable feature inherent in analog devices. Once the coursework was done I no longer found applications and electronic gadgets began to provide convenient complex functions anyway." See Hank's other personal slide rules, the Aristo 0970 Multilog and 870 (pocket) Multilog in the Aristo Gallery.
