1.11.10 night shift

#23- worked on the regrind / virgin loader blender controller. It was not functioning. Found a bad valve, when I looked at the other controller, it had a different valve, so I changed out the whole controller, and it worked fine.

#5- The robot conveyor belt tripped out, after looking at it, the NO contact was bad. I put a jumper across it since the tether had already been removed anyway. Working fine now.

Mark and I looked at the robot on #8, for future reference and to eliminate process tech changes, the Timers set-up is as follows:


Delay Before Sprue Grip: 2.50 sec (Grabbers)
Delay Before Part Grip : 2.00 sec (Kickers)
Delay After Sprue/Part Grip : 0.50

Continued working on PM's, I mentioned to Bill that he might see if Jerome would schedule the fans to run in 22 or 23 so we can have a repair window for the leaks on #21. Haven't heard anything back yet.

Also: I looked at the new mold with cores,, unless we change the cylinders we are going to need to install some mechanical switches to read set/pull with it. Maybe attach locking collars or position flags with microswitches??
They are not done tearing it down for cleaning but likely they will want to sample it soon and we will need to decide how to proceed.

Call if there are any questions...Sean
