4.9/10.11 D-shift Sean (Weekend)

Mp#7- replaced all the nozzle bands and thermocouple from a bleedoff. Mp#16- replaced the nozzle band and removed bleed off. Mp#12- Checked all of the heater bands on the barrel (at Potter's request). Also hooked up the dewpoint meter to see if dryer was working correctly. I did find some loose heaterbands on the nozzle, but all of the barrel bands were good. Mp#23- Replaced the conveyor drive belt on one of the small conveyors. Installed the lockouts on the E-stop pushbuttons until I ran out of them. I still need several more to have them installed on all presses. Repaired the heat guns that were in the shop. Both had bad heaters and one of them needed brushes. Checked operation and tagged them, located them in the auxilliary equipment area in molding. Mp#8- Verified the core sequence switch was right for the old fan mold (Potters's request). Replaced nozzle heater bands on this one also. Mp#5- rebuilt the core cylinder on non-operator side. Reinstalled only to find the pull switch was bad. Broke it off in the plate when I tried to remove it and had to pull the plate and core back off again. Got that fixed and then the machine started alarming prefill valve did not open in time. I zeroed the tonnage offset and checked comm vec values for that problem and it started working good after that. I did take some photos of the classic IML station and started putting the door latches on the R2 IML station but kept getting interupted. Call if you have any questions or just want to touch base.
