adventures in QA

(previous post in this series)

My shop in Advanced Midbody - Carbon Wing (AMCW) at Large Aircraft Manufacturer (LAM) is at the very end of the composite fabrication building. Hundreds of people carefully lay up a hundred foot long slab of carbon fiber, cure it, paint it, and then we totally fuck it up with out of spec holes, scrapes, primer damage, etc. The people who write up our many defects are from the Quality Assurance (QA) department.

Every single screw and rivet on a LAM aircraft can be traced back to the mechanic who installed it. Back when even everything was done in pen and pencil, it was joked that the paper used to produce an aircraft outweighed the plane itself. Now that everything is computer-based, of course, the amount of paperwork is free to grow without limit.

(Haunting the factory is endless media coverage of an emergency exit door plug popping out of an Advanced Smallbody - Upengine (ASU) plane during a routine flight a few months ago. Unlike that airframe's notorious problems with MCAS, this was a straightforward paperwork screwup by a line worker: the bolts were supposed to be tightened, and they weren't.

As a result the higher ups have visited hideous tribulations on non-salaried workers. Endless webinars, structured trainings. Here at the Widebody plant we have received a steady flow of refugees from the Narrowbody factory, hair-raising tales of receiving one hundred percent supervision from the moment they clock in to the second they clock out from FAA inspectors who can recommend actual jail time for any lapse in judgement.)

A single hydraulic bracket Installation Plan (IP) is around four brackets. The team leads generally assign two bracket IPs per mechanic, since each bracket set is something like a foot apart, and while working on the plane is bad enough it's much worse to have another mechanic in your lap.

Let me list the order of operations:

One: Find where you're supposed to install these brackets. This is harder than you might think.

Firstly, it's a hundred foot long plank of carbon fiber composite, with longitudinal stringers bonded to it to add stiffness. The stringers are pilot drilled in the trim and drill center, a truly Brobdingnagian CNC mill that trims off the composite flash at the edges and locates and drills part holes for us. But there's a lot of holes, so you must carefully find your set.

A minor difficulty is that the engineering drawings are laid out with the leading edge pointing up, while the wing panels in our cells hang from the trailing edge. Not so bad, you just rotate the paper 180 when orienteering, then rotate it back up to read the printed labels.

A major difficulty is that the drawings are from the perspective from the outside of the panel. But we work on the inside of the wing (obviously, that's where all the parts are installed) so we also flip the drawings and squint through the back of the paper, to make things line up.

Large Aircraft Manufacturer has a market cap of US$110 billion, and we're walking around the wing jig with sheets of paper rotated 180 and flipped turnways trying to find where to put brackets.

Oh well, we're paid by the hour.

Two: Match drill the aluminum brackets to the carbon fiber composite stringer. I can devote an entire post to the subtleties of drilling carbon fiber, but I can already tell that this post is going to be a miserable slog, so I will merrily skip over this step.

Three: Vacuum up all the carbon dust and aluminum swarf created during this process. This step is not optional, as your team lead will remind you, his screaming mouth clouding your safety glasses with spittle at a distance of four inches. LAM is very serious about FOD. Every jet airliner you've ever ridden in is a wet wing design-- each interstitial space is filled with Jet A. There is no fuel bladder or liner-- the fuel washes right over plane structure and wing hardware. Any dirt we leave behind will merrily float into the fuel and be sucked right into the engines, where it can cause millions in damage. No place for metal shavings!

If you are nervous about flying, avoid considering that all the hydraulic lines and engine control cables dip into a lake of a kerosene on their way from the flight deck to the important machines they command. Especially do not consider that we're paid about as much per hour as a McDonalds fry cook to install flight-critical aviation components.

Four: Neatly lay out your brackets on your cart, fight for a position at a Shared Production Workstation (SPW) (of which we have a total of four (4) for a crew of thirty (30) mechanics) and mark your IP for QA inspection as Ready To Apply Seal.

Four: Twiddle your thumbs. Similarly, we have three QA people for thirty mechanics. This is not enough QA people, as I will make enormously clear in the following steps.

Five: Continue waiting. Remember, you must not do anything until a QA person shows up and checks the box. Skipping a QA step is a “process failure” and a disciplinary offense. From the outside, you can observe the numerous QA whistleblowers and say “golly, why would a mechanic ever cut a corner and ignore QA?” Well...

Six: QA shows up. Theoretically, they could choose to pick up the mahrmax you prepared for them and gauge every single hole you've drilled. But since we're three hours into the shift and they're already twenty jobs behind, they just flick their flashlight across the panel and say “looks good" and then sprint away. Can't imagine why our planes keep falling out of the sky.

Seven: Apply the seal to the bracket. P/S 890 is a thick dark gray goop that adheres well to aluminum, carbon fiber, fabric, hair and skin. Once cured, it is completely immune to any chemical attack short of piranha solution, so if you get any on yourself you had better notice quick, otherwise it'll be with you as long as the layer of epidermis it's bonded to. LAM employees who work with fuel tank sealant very quickly get out of the habit of running their hands through their hair.

Eight: Now you wait again. Ha ha, you dumb asshole, you thought you were done with QA? No no, now you put up the job for QA inspection of how well you put the seal on the bracket. Twiddle your thumbs, but now with some urgency. The minute you took the bottle of seal out of the freezer, you started the clock on its "squeeze-out life." For this type of seal, on this job, it's 120 minutes. If QA doesn't get to you before that time expires, you remove your ticket, wipe off the seal, take another bottle out the freezer, and apply a fresh layer.

Nine: Optimistically, QA shows up in time and signs off on the seal. Well, you're 100 minutes into your 120 minute timer. Quickly, you slap the brackets onto the stringer, air hammer the sleeve bolts into position, thread nuts onto the bolts, then torque them down. Shove through the crowd and mark your IP "ready to inspect squeeze out"

Ten: Let out a long breath and relax. All the time sensitive parts are over. The criteria here is "visible and continuous" squeeze out all along the perimeter of the bracket and the fasteners. It is hard to screw this up, just glop on a wild excess of seal before installing it. If you do fail squeezeout, though, the only remedy is to take everything off, throw away the single-use distorted thread locknuts, clean everything up and try again tomorrow.

Eleven: QA approved squeeze out? Break's over, now we're in a hurry again. By now there's probably only an hour or two left in the shift, and your job now is to clean off all that squeeze out. Here's where you curse your past self for glopping on too much seal. You want to get it off ASAP because if you leave it alone or if it's too late in the shift and your manager does feel like approving overtime it'll cure to a rock hard condition overnight and you'll go through hell chipping it off the next day. You'll go through a hundred or so qtips soaked in MPK cleaning up the bracket and every surface of the panel within three feet.

Twelve: Put it up for final inspection. Put away all your tools. (The large communal toolboxes are lined with kaizen foam precisely cut out to hold each individual tool, which makes it obvious if any tool is missing. When you take a tool out, you stick a tool chit with your name and LAMID printed on it in its place. Lose a tool? Stick your head between your legs and kiss your ass goodbye, pal, because the default assumption is that a lost screwdriver is lurking in a hollow "hat" stringer, waiting to float out and damage some critical component years after the airplane is delivered.)

One tool you'll leave on your cart, however, is the pin protrusion gage. There is a minimum amount of thread that must poke outside of the permanent straight shank fastener's (Hi-Lok) nut, to indicate that the nut is fully engaged. That makes sense. But there's also a maximum protrusion. Why?

Well, it's an airplane. Ounces make pounds. An extra quarter inch of stickout across a thousand fasteners across a 30 year service life means tons of additional fuel burnt. So you can't use a fastener that's too long, because it adds weight.

On aluminum parts, it's hard to mess up. But any given composite part is laid up from many layers of carbon fiber tape. The engineers seemed to have assumed that dimensional variation would be normally distributed. But, unfortunately, we buy miles of carbon fiber at a time, and the size only very gradually changes between lots. When entire batches are several microns oversize, and you're laying up parts from fifty plies and an inch thick, you can have considerable variation of thickness on any given structural component. So you had better hope you had test fit all of your fasteners ahead of time, or else you'll be real sorry!

And, if you're really lucky, QA will show up five minutes before end of shift, pronounce everything within tolerance, then fuck off.

And that's how it takes eight hours to install eight brackets.

3Dプリンターは生物を模倣する / 3D printers that mimic life forms

最新のスーパーカーと呼ばれる少量生産の高額車両で、金属用の3Dプリンターで製作した部品がこぞって採用されているという話題です。 The latest supercars, low-volume, high-value vehicles, are all using parts made with 3D printers for metal.                    ＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊ sources : Life in the FAST LANE

記事では、マクラーレンW1やフェラーリF80、ブガッティ・トゥールビヨンで、3Dプリンターでサスペンション用の構造部品が製造されている事が画像と併せて紹介されています。そして、最も興味深い事は、そのどれもが有機体・生物の骨格の様な形状をしている事です。これは、使用されている部位からも判る通り、スタイリングを優先した結果ではなく、AIを使った設計で、より少ない材料で軽量に仕上げ、より高い強度や優れたエアロダイナミクスを追及した結果だと事。まるで、何十億年もかけて進化してきた生物の骨格そっくりな点に最も注目しています。 更に、3Dプリンターを使えば、内部にトラス構造の中空部品さえ製造可能で、正に少量生産で高性能で高額な車両に採用するのに最適な製造方法と言えるでしょう。 しかし、近い将来、AIの利用技術は一般的になる事は間違いないので、3Dプリンターを使った同様な部品の製造が可能になるでしょう。少なくとも、マニングセンタやCNCフライスなどを駆使して作られた特殊な部品よりも、3Dプリンターで作られた最適形状の部品の方が評価が高くなるでしょう。更に、カーボンファイバーなどの複合素材用の3Dプリンターが開発されれば、圧倒的な優位性を持つ部品が F1等の車両に広く利用されるでしょう。オートバイだと、スイングアームに最初に採用されるでしょう。高剛性で軽量、しかも最適なエアロダイナミクスを持つ、チーターの骨格を思わせる様なスイングアームです。夢が広がる技術です。

The article shows, with images, that suspension structural parts are being made with 3D printers in the McLaren W1, Ferrari F80, and Bugatti Tourbillon. And the most interesting thing is that all of them are shaped like the skeleton of an organism or living thing. As you can see from the parts they are used in, this is not the result of prioritizing styling, but rather the result of designing using AI to make them lighter with less material, and to pursue higher strength and better aerodynamics. The most notable thing is that they look just like the skeletons of organisms that have evolved over billions of years. In addition, with a 3D printer, it is even possible to manufacture hollow parts with truss structures inside, making it the perfect manufacturing method for low-volume, high-performance, high-value vehicles. However, it is certain that AI technology will become commonplace in the near future, so it will be possible to manufacture similar parts using 3D printers. At the very least, parts with optimal shapes made by 3D printers will be more highly rated than special parts made using machining centers, CNC milling cutters, etc. Furthermore, if 3D printers for composite materials such as carbon fiber are developed, parts with overwhelming advantages will be widely used in vehicles such as F1 cars. For motorcycles, it will probably be first used in swingarms. High rigidity, light weight, and with optimal aerodynamics, the swingarm resembles the skeleton of a cheetah. It is a technology that expands dreams.

The speed of the laser, combined with its precision, allows manufacturers to produce large quantities of components in a shorter amount of time. This increased productivity leads to reduced production costs, making it a cost-effective solution for both small and large-scale projects.

Minimal Material Waste

In conventional cutting methods, such as mechanical cutting or sawing, there is often a considerable amount of material waste due to the larger kerf (cut width) and imprecision. Metal laser cutting, on the other hand, produces a very narrow kerf and requires less material removal, resulting in minimal waste. This not only reduces the overall cost of materials but also makes the process more environmentally friendly by optimizing material usage.

Non-Contact Process

Metal laser cutting is a non-contact process, meaning the cutting tool (laser beam) does not physically touch the material. This eliminates the risk of tool wear and tear, which is a common issue in traditional cutting methods like mechanical sawing or milling. The absence of mechanical stress on the material also prevents deformation, ensuring that the final product maintains its structural integrity and dimensional accuracy.

Automation and Customization

Many metal laser cutting machines are integrated with advanced CNC (Computer Numerical Control) systems, allowing for automated and highly customized cutting processes. This automation ensures consistency and repeatability in large production runs while reducing the likelihood of human error. Additionally, the flexibility of CNC programming allows for the production of highly detailed and customized designs, even in complex geometries, without the need for tool changes or manual intervention.

Reduced Energy Consumption

Despite its high power and efficiency, metal laser cutting is relatively energy-efficient when compared to other cutting methods like plasma cutting. The laser’s focused energy ensures that only the required amount of energy is used for each cut, reducing overall power consumption. For industries seeking to reduce their carbon footprint, this is an added advantage.

Improved Edge Quality

One of the standout benefits of metal laser cutting is the smooth and clean edges it produces. The focused laser beam ensures that cuts are precise and free from burrs, jagged edges, or other imperfections typically found with traditional cutting methods. This high-quality edge finish reduces the need for secondary finishing processes, saving time and labor costs in the manufacturing process.

Common Industrial Applications of Metal Laser Cutting

Metal laser cutting is used across a wide range of industries, thanks to its versatility and efficiency. Some common applications include:

Automotive Industry: Laser cutting is widely used to produce precision automotive parts such as gears, body panels, and custom components.

This increased productivity leads to reduced production costs, making it a cost-effective solution for both small and large-scale projects.

Minimal Material Waste

In conventional cutting methods, such as mechanical cutting or sawing, there is often a considerable amount of material waste due to the larger kerf (cut width) and imprecision. Metal laser cutting, on the other hand, produces a very narrow kerf and requires less material removal, resulting in minimal waste. This not only reduces the overall cost of materials but also makes the process more environmentally friendly by optimizing material usage.

Non-Contact Process

Metal laser cutting is a non-contact process, meaning the cutting tool (laser beam) does not physically touch the material. This eliminates the risk of tool wear and tear, which is a common issue in traditional cutting methods like mechanical sawing or milling. The absence of mechanical stress on the material also prevents deformation, ensuring that the final product maintains its structural integrity and dimensional accuracy.

Automation and Customization

Many metal laser cutting machines are integrated with advanced CNC (Computer Numerical Control) systems, allowing for automated and highly customized cutting processes. This automation ensures consistency and repeatability in large production runs while reducing the likelihood of human error. Additionally, the flexibility of CNC programming allows for the production of highly detailed and customized designs, even in complex geometries, without the need for tool changes or manual intervention.

Reduced Energy Consumption

Despite its high power and efficiency, metal laser cutting is relatively energy-efficient when compared to other cutting methods like plasma cutting. The laser’s focused energy ensures that only the required amount of energy is used for each cut, reducing overall power consumption. For industries seeking to reduce their carbon footprint, this is an added advantage.

Improved Edge Quality

One of the standout benefits of metal laser cutting is the smooth and clean edges it produces. The focused laser beam ensures that cuts are precise and free from burrs, jagged edges, or other imperfections typically found with traditional cutting methods. This high-quality edge finish reduces the need for secondary finishing processes, saving time and labor costs in the manufacturing process.
