Later, in 1701, Thomas Newcomen managed to get a system using steam, valves, pistons, and cylinders to work. This idea was also to remove the water from the mines, but in this case, the machine used the power of steam along with a counterweight to move a piston up and down. This was connected to a pump that raised the water.
The problem with these systems was that you had to heat to create temperature and then cool to create a vacuum. Thus, most of the steam's energy was used to get lost. This detail was noticed by a Scottish engineer, James Watt. He found a way out of this problem and thus initiated the industrial revolution. Watt introduced some improvements to some existing machines that made poor use of steam power, which was key. One consisted of a metal rod connecting the piston to a wheel.
