Continued with PM's and oil cleanups.

MP#12-

The F1 fan housing was welding so good that it was passing the destructive test so much that even excessive pressure would not separate the two halves to remove the test insert parts. Potter told them to bang the parts on the ground to bust them open, after a several hours of this, they asked me to see what other method could work to separate the halves.

I put the smaller arbor press from the maintenance shop back there so they could use it as a "nut cracker" to separate the fan housing. At least it is safer than slamming them on the ground as parts were flying wildly as the insert shot out of the fan when it broke.

Josh may want to have Walter take a look at what they are doing when they test them and provide some feedback on constructing something more permanent to remove the insert after testing since they test every 30 minutes when it is running production.

Be back on friday evening, keep me in the loop!

Mp#8- Lost pressure to the End of arm tool "Kick" cylinders. Ended up replacing them both and a gripper bracket. Also replaced a broken air fitting on the valve body up on the robot itself. Tightened up the Y-axis screws that hold the primary and secondary arms together. O.k. to run, but was down several hours while Gary Hunt and I worked on it.

Will re-do the spare arm for the fan housing today. It was in the cabinet but was missing several parts.

Loading system had problems loading the surge bins from the silos. Found several problems related to loss of vacuum from air leaks and bad seals. Corrected the issues and everything is loading fine again.

Have a nice day.
