Worked on dryer issues all night. Dryer11 replaced overload contacts on blower motor then it lost a process heater contactor do we see a pattern these things are ending there life and are in need of replacement. Dryer was brought to shop looped out and running so far so good.
Mp2 had issues with Mold and cores not set up to run on cores read Josh’s blog about it.

Work with F1 Fan Housings and new tester. Fan Housings that had a .7 weld time proved to be leakers and could be destroyed at about 5psi. Housings with .9 weld time had a small leak but passed the tester and were able to be destroyed at 10psi. Housings with 1.0 – 1.1 seemed to be sealed / welded very well with destruction around 12-14 psi. All new housing halves passed the drop tester at 30inches.
Wired mold #52926 (Steemer Tank) for cores. Swapped hydraulic fittings on the mold and connected to core 1 on MP2. Adjusted switches and cores worked on A1 and B1.
Talked to Josh about MP21, he showed me the valve to increase speed of functions, worked with Rick to get fan runners to drop. Repaired pull cable for plates on mold.
Set up ban saw in molding shop for techs.
Helped
Worked on MP11 Robot, Robot would grab parts and stop above mold, say in unsafe position. Ended up being no time in cycle start timer on mold machine.
Ronnie and I will try to calibrate MP11 and MP21 tomorrow.

Hello All,
In the past we have used the Ejectors to control the stripper plate on this mold because when not using the robot multiple strokes were needed to clear the part. It is a lot safer to use the Core circuit because when using the Ejectors the set-up parameters were just “tricking” the machine and everything was based on time with no part removal verification. When using the Core circuit in combination with the robot, part removal is verified.
Just remember that on the “Special Options” menu of the robot that “Cores Logic” needs to be turned ON.
Any questions regarding this can be directed to me or any member of the Molding Maintenance Department.
Thanks

2.26.11 (Weekend of) Sean
Mp#23- changed nozzle band.
Mp#3- replaced 1-1/4" hose on the op side clamp assist cylinder that was leaking bad. Cleaned up the oil.
Mp#1- installed air pressure regulator on the EOAT so it would not damage fans. They had turned down the regulator on the robot to where the system pressure switch would no longer make, faulting out the robot.
Mp#21-Sole Plate wheel press, replaced one of the two hand air switches.
Mp#2- Replaced the wire on the ejector back switch of steemer tank mold. It got smashed.
Mp#24- Wheel/Tire Press Tool. Made a hand tool so they could rework the cold tires that were molded. This item needs to be revisited by one of our manufacturing engineers involved with it. The normal automatic operation is damaging the parts when used.
Mp#10- The nut press is still having problems when the nuts are not cleaned, the track will not load up correctly. Wev put some in a 5 gallon bucket with degreaser and tumbled it for an hour. Then cleaned them off with rags and air. No one can give me an answer as to what is the procedure with this situation. Who makes the decision? Communication has been poor lately on some of these problems that keep lingering around.? Thanks for any support you can get.
Continued with PM's and other support functions.
Have a very nice day.
