Manufacturing Methods and Technology (MM&T) Project to Establish Production Techniques to Manufacture Rigid Armor for Radar Antenna Hardening.

Abstract

Modification of contract was received September 1979 after a six month limited activity period due to depletion of the majority of the original funding. Limited activity period involved preparation of the seventh quarterly report and optimizing molding procedures and molding panels during the production demonstration for AMMRC. Project continuation is based on reduced effort to supply a limited number of Engineering and Confirmatory Samples and provide a Production Capability Demonstration. Pilot run has been eliminated. The fabrication procedures will conform to the method of production demonstrated at Swedlow, Inc. to AMMRC personnel in May 1979. This period included fabrication of Engineering Samples within the guidelines established during the demonstration run in May, 1979. Run data sheets were analyzed to determine process revisions required to assure replication of final thickness from panel to panel. (Author)
