Around 1750, Richard Arkwright teamed up with clockmaker, John Kay, and together in the late 1760's they had created a machine that could spin four strands of cotton yarn at the same time. Their finished Water Frame spinning machine spun 96 strands of yarn at once and was powered by a water wheel, and was installed in factory mills.
