Manufacturing Methods and Technology for Electromagnetic Components.

Abstract

The purpose of the present MM&T program is to investigate, evaluate, and implement techniques for the manufacture of low cost, highly reliable electromagnetic components for missile systems applications. The emphasis is on implement, through a continuing program to rapidly disseminate this information to electromagnetic component manufacturers with the purpose of assisting them to produce lower cost, more reliable products. The basic effort phase of this program, reported in this documented, was concerned with two tasks: improving the manufacturing methods of potting/encapsulation, and investigating the winding techniques of electromagnetic devices. Three remaining tasks, now in process, are: interconnection techniques, tooling, and structural parts, to be covered in a subsequent report. It is anticipated that the combined results of these five tasks will implement improved manufacturing methods for electromagnetic components so that a significant payback in manufacture and life cycle costs of present and future missile systems, due to lower production costs, higher process yield, and improved reliability will be obtained.
