Mp#20- The hot stamp was losing heat control and dropping temperature. Ronnie had looked at it and checked most everything and I went over it further and really did not see any bad components initially. I went ahead and replaced the thermocouple but that did not solve the problem. I ended up putting the nest for the parts they were running on another hot stamp press so they could continue the production run.
Mp#1- They set a new tool in today and the locator ring on the press appeared to have been smashed a little too much to set the tool in. I turned it out on the lathe a little so he could put the tool in, but it needs to be replaced. If we already have one?, somebody leave it out so we can get that in whenever it is between changes.
The dryer behind press#8 (New Nova Tech) has been stopping 4 or 5 times tonight. The material handler said he had just been restarting it. It was alarming for "RIN - Over". I asked him if it was recovering on its own and he said he didnt really know. I will get with Ronnie about that before I leave.
The fans they are running on press#12 have hairs from the vibratory weld flash. They have been using pieces of rubber to de-flash the parting line area. The operators and team leaders have been coming to maintenance requesting rubber for this purpose. I directed them to MRO, but the type of rubber they are using is not found in MRO...so, I kept a piece of it (all that I could find left) and left it on my tool cart for a sample if anyone goes to get more at IRG or somewhere? I asked Roger to fill out a stock item request for it and that aluminum foil tape they use everywhere in molding. That is not in MRO either.
The notes for the PLC program on the connector tester are on the tablet on my tool cart and there is a back up program with commentary markup in the maintenance plc programs folder also.
Give me a call if you have any questions.
