MontagueSubject: Adequacy of multiple checkpoints to ensure correct installation Description of Driving Event: A manufacturing engineer fo

2、und that sixteen fasteners were not installed on Flight Wing 1 (Solar Array Assembly) two (2) days prior to shipment. Investigation revealed deficiencies and/or breakdowns in several discrete process.Root cause: 1. Engineering design error; fastener was too short.2. Failure to adhere to manufacturin

3、g control processes: a. Fasteners were not installed and informal notification of fastener size error was done in lieu of formal discrepancy report (DR) documenting incorrect fastener size and lack of fastener installation.b. Inspection/Manufacturing failure to verify completion of operation at docu

When an engineering change initiated to correct the fastener size was processed, planner did not flow the change dow

6、se from IHS-,-,-Lesson(s) Learned: All multiple controls in the design, manufacture, and inspect sequence must be effective to ensure the acceptability of end productsRecommendation(s): An all hands meeting was conducted with planning staff, technicians, and inspectors. 1. Adherence to process/proce

7、dures was re-emphasized;2. Implemented a weekly documentation review for process compliance;3. Improved “shakedown“ inspection process and checklist was developed and implemented;4. Product Assurance performed a procedure review, clarification, and personnel training to ensure process compliance;5.

8、Conducted thorough process review of engineering change implementation to ensure process is adequate;6. Added requirement for a dry-fit check where critical thermal interfaces depend on a specific level of clamping force;7. Reviewed drawing standards with personnel to address the proper use of redli

These are evaluated and dispositions determined by Engineering, processed through the Material Review Boa
