Carbon Tape Process Specification • 1.2 (10) - “safe’ in both docs, context depends on application • Material document says min. 3 batches (10), process document says 3 to 5 (12) • 1.3 (12) - Fabricator qual tests consist of? Tying in qualification with other cure cycles and fabrication methods? August 6 - 8, 2002
Material vs. Process Specifications • Most material specifications reference testing or other industry documents • Most process spec referenced documents are internal 2nd and 3rd tier process specs • Scope of all fabrication processes seems ambitious • Suggest example spec should be for panel processing August 6 - 8, 2002
