# PUNCH CARD COMPUTER DATA PROCESSING OVERVIEW IBM 029 KEY PUNCH MACHINE 65014

This late 1960s educational color film (#14-676) provides step-by-step operational instructions for the IBM 029 Key Punch machine, which was introduced in 1964. It is one of a seven-part series produced by Moreland-Latchford and distributed by Sterling Educational Films. The film covers the keyboard, card hopper and punching station, reading station and card stacker, manipulative parts, and punching the card. The camera moves in on a woman typing on an IBM 29 card (key) punch machine. (:23-:38). The keyboard is shown on the keypunch machine compared to an IBM typewriter keyboard. Certain keys, such as the numerical and alphabetical shift keys are shown up close. Her fingers type very quickly (:39-2:35). She takes a stack of cards out of the card hopper and new ones placed in. Depressing the feed key feeds them into the card bed. The cards are shown up close as they pass by in the bed (2:36-3:40). A simulation shows how the blades make the punches. The woman pulls out the chip box to show it is full of the tiny chads (3:42-4:17). The punched card moves to the reading station. Pressing the Dup button duplicates a column (4:19-5:32). The card next moves to the stacker. The woman pulls a stack of 500 finished cards out and fans each end (5:34-6:08). The Power On Power Off mainline switch is shown (6:16). More closeups of fingers typing and pressings buttons is shown. Pressing the release key ejects the card from the punching station and the next card becomes ready for punching…
