When you're mentioning "cool off" are you speaking between each operation? Per x amount of holes? I def see with my part having 33 mounting holes and doing all at same operation, the heat may build up.
Ghost,
good points regarding having restrained vs unrestrained condition. From what I saw, I do believe they restrain it during inspection, however it may not be to the same force as manufacturing. I will look at this.
Thanks for the input Dave,
It seems like any research I do it comes down to fixturing. I spoke with one our machinists and he actually suggested to have them do the "Ball Test" on the CNC machine. Which I may have to see if that was ever done at our vendor.
Hi everyone,
I am dealing with a small issue with one of our composite parts. For background, this is a composite enclosure that stores the aircraft evacuation system. This enclosure is off the wing, therefore it has awkward geometry it is 61" long and width of 45" tapering down to 20" overall...
