15、 in the Release Documentation (see 2.3). 3.4 Test Time. The following is an estimate of the amount of time (work-hours) needed to perform this procedure. Note: These time estimates are approximate averages. Actual times vary considerably depending on early component failures (and subsequent availabi

16、lity of replacement parts), testing to varying multiples of cycle lives, varying requirements for frequency of environmental test conditions, scheduling problems for test facilities, test equipment malfunctions, scheduling of overtime and/or multiple shifts, scheduling of witnesses for tests, actual

17、 readiness of test samples upon receipt, unique or additional requests for detailed test information, running multiple samples (times shown are for one system), etc. These times consider preparation and other downtime, actual test, and analysis of data in capturing a total calendar time. Report writ

18、ing, approval, processing, etc. are not included in these times. Calendar time: 2 days Test hours: 6 hours Coordination hours: 2 hours 3.5 Test Required Information. The requesting engineer is responsible for providing specifications appropriate to the particular vehicle line being tested (reference

19、 VTS/SSTS paragraph numbers, if applicable. See 2.3). Testing worst case scenarios may uncover some potential problems. Discuss with the requesting engineer, if testing should include some worst case scenarios. Depending on which test is being performed and which level of parts or systems is being t

20、ested, consider if any of the following may apply: tolerance stack-ups, build variations, misalignment, minimum/maximum fastener torque(s), lubrication, environmental extremes, location of customer representative load application, symmetry (Left Hand vs. Right Hand), color, mold or die source, etc.

21、3.5.1 The following specifications or information are required to run this test: 3.5.1.1 Types of materials to be applied to glass surfaces. 3.5.1.2 Environmental exposure conditions and length of time. 3.5.1.3 Door glass operation range and number of cycles before evaluation. 3.5.1.4 Grid size to u

22、se for area determination and location. 3.5.1.5 Specific locations and areas of concern on glass surface. 3.6 Personnel/Skills. Prior experience in setting up and running similar tests and experience in the use of the referenced test equipment are critical to achieving the estimated times shown in 3

24、 6 4 Procedure 4.1 Preparation. 4.1.1 Sample Inspection. The test and requesting engineers should inspect the test items to insure all material listed in 3.3 is of correct design level and assembled properly. Note: Check to make sure glass and belt strips are clean before test begins. Any dirt or gr

25、ease on the glass surface before test may be deposited on the belt strips and could affect test results. 4.1.1.1 Cycle the window system full up and full down a minimum of five times prior to the start of test to assure proper operation and seating of system components. Note any irregular sounds or

26、erratic operation indicating a potential problem with assembly or design and verify observations with the release engineer. 4.1.2 Sample Preparation. This test is normally run on the test subject in an as received condition. If it is requested to be run in a specifically adjusted condition, follow t

27、he applicable procedure(s). 4.1.2.1 If necessary, measure and adjust gap and rabbet dimensions (refer to Door System Alignment to Body GMW15938) for doors mounted on a body to ensure they meet design requirements. 4.1.2.2 Clean all glass surfaces before test using an appropriate cleaner and avoid we

28、tting the outer belt seal. 4.1.2.3 From 3.5, determine special areas of concern on the glass surface and which size grid dimensions will be required for wipe area determination. The smaller the grid size, the more accurate the wipe area dimensions. 4.1.2.4 Measure and mark points at the specified di

29、mensions horizontally and vertically across the glass surface using a permanent marking pen and scale. The grid can be drawn on the outside or inside of the glass surface. 4.1.2.5 Draw the horizontal lines on the glass surface using the door beltline as a reference and guide. Draw the vertical lines

30、 on the glass surface by resting one edge of the combination square on the beltline and using the vertical edge as a drawing guide. 4.1.3 Facilities and/or Equipment Preparation. Record the instrumentation calibration information on the attached Calibration Data Sheet A1 or an equivalent document. 4

31、.2 Conditions. 4.2.1 Environmental Conditions. Unless otherwise specified in this documents text or by the requesting engineer, the typical environmental conditions for this test are the temperature, humidity and pressure at the major test facility (3.1). Unless otherwise noted, these conditions are

32、 typically 22 C 3 C, relative humidity of 40% 20%, and atmospheric pressure equivalent to the local barometric pressure (which is variable during any given day and from day to day). 4.2.2 Test Conditions. Deviations from the requirements of this standard shall have been agreed upon. Such requirement

33、s shall be specified on component drawings, test certificates, reports, etc. 4.3 Instructions. 4.3.1 Setup Instructions. Perform any functional/operational tests/evaluations as requested or as may be referenced in Section 2. Specifically, cycle the window system up and down. As applicable, note any

34、irregular sounds or erratic operation indicating a potential problem with design, manufacture, or assembly and verify observations with the requesting engineer. 4.3.1.1 Start with the door glass in a full up position. 4.3.1.2 If the door is mounted on a body, make sure it is fully latched on the str

35、iker. 4.3.1.3 Determine from the requesting engineer what type of material(s) or combination of materials is to be applied to the outer glass surface. Glass surfaces may require exposure to environmental extremes to obtain the proper test conditions, i.e., exposure to high humidity will provide a wa

36、ter vapor coverage, while exposure to extreme cold after humidity will provide a frosted surface. 4.3.2 Test Operation Instructions. 4.3.2.1 Apply the specified materials and/or expose the test sample to the required environmental conditions for the specified length of time. Reference 3.5. 4.3.2.2 S

37、tarting at the full up position, operate the door glass throughout the specified travel range and number of cycles. 4.3.2.3 Apply the contrasting colored backing material to the inner glass surface and secure with tape.
