Hardware Description

IBM's Type 011 Electric Punch. Introduced in 1923, when IBM cards had 45 columns and round holes. This was the first punch with electric power; holes are punched by electromagnets rather than muscle power, at a great reduction in operator fatigue. Strictly numeric, the machine also includes a tabbing feature similar to typewriter tab stops.
