This video shows how ProjectionWorks is helping Northrop Grumman assemble the F-35. The introduction of this installation into the F-35 program is expected to save over $100 million over the life of the program. www.projectionworks.com
Seems like robots could be used to install the fasteners, which will help further keep the costs down and increase output and efficiency. I am sure they’re already planning it.
Then do your job, talk to your lead, have them get with Eng Liason and have them omitted. As long as you can prove on multiple shipsets that they serve no function other than to extend the process of installation. Aaaand you just might get a cash incentive.
@@Colicab83 Not going to happen. They will not listen. They will not do anything and for the cash incentive its simply not worth it. Besides I'm not on that program anymore. MDC had a great incentive. One person created a V shape device that goes onto a finger that allows you to easily hold onto a MS nut. That guy got 10 thousand dollars of MDC stock and the tool is a company tool now. in Boeing.
