Automatic Mix-Melt Production Process Development for Tritonal, H-6, and Minol II, A Project of the Manufacturing Technology Program, Naval Sea Systems Command.

Abstract

The results of a successfully completed NAVSEA sponsored Manufacturing Technology project are reported. The project was carried out by the Naval Ammunition Production Engineering Center (NAPEC), NAVAMPROENGCEN Crane, Indiana in connection with the modernization of the bomb loading production facility at McAlester AAP (formerly NAD McAlester). The program objectives including identification of the parameters governing the mixing process for explosive loads and the development of a full-scale automated equipment system necessary to demonstrate the new technology in the mixing of tritonal were accomplished. The new process provides a more uniform product, increased safety and economic benefits. (Author)
