摘要:
There is provided a multiple-component tampon applicator formed from at least three separate components. A fingergrip having a reduced cross-section as compared to that of the barrel may be formed such that it is a separate component or is integrally formed with a barrel component. The reduced cross-section fingergrip provides exceptional grippability to the user. The multiple components may be formed from materials including, for example, biopolymer including starches and proteins, cardboard, heat shrink plastic, paper slurry, plastic, plastic tubing, pulp slurry, pulp-molded paper, or any combinations thereof. Prior to assembly of the applicator and prior to loading the barrel component with an absorbent pledget, petals may be formed on the insertion end of the barrel using existing processes and equipment. Alternatively, a separate insertion tip component having petals may be formed. This separate component may then be connected to the barrel component either before or after an absorbent pledget is loaded into the barrel component.

A method of securing an workpiece for machining the trailing edge. The workpiece has a platform from which extends an airfoil, the airfoil including a leading edge and a trailing edge, and a pressure side and a suction side. A fixture with at least one locating datum that relates to the platform and at least one locating datum that relates to the leading edge is provided. The fixture does not contact the trailing edge of the workpiece. The workpiece is positioned so that the platform is against the related locating datum and the leading edge is against the related locating datum. The workpiece is secured within the fixture, and the trailing edge of the workpiece is machined.

A nickel braze alloy composition includes a blend of a first nickel alloy and a second nickel alloy. The first nickel alloy includes about 4.75 wt %-10.5 wt % of chromium, about 5.5 wt %-6.7 wt % of aluminum, up to about 13 wt % cobalt, about 3.75 wt %-9.0 wt % of tantalum, about 1.3 wt %-2.25 wt % of molybdenum, about 3.0 wt %-6.8 wt % of tungsten, about 2.6 wt %-3.25 wt % of rhenium, up to about 0.02 wt % of boron, about 0.05 wt %-2.0 wt % of hafnium, up to about 0.14 wt % of carbon, up to about 0.35 wt % of zirconium, and a balance of nickel. The second nickel alloy includes about 21.25 wt %-22.75 wt % of chromium, about 5.7 wt %-6.3 wt % of aluminum, about 11.5 wt %-12.5 wt % of cobalt, about 5.7 wt %-6.3 wt % of silicon, boron in an amount no greater than 1.0 wt %, and a balance of nickel.
摘要:
A method and apparatus are provided for determining a next tool state based on fault detection information. The method comprises receiving operational data associated with processing of a workpiece by a processing tool, determining at least a portion of noise associated with the processing of the workpiece based on analyzing the operational data and estimating a next state of the processing tool based on at least the determined portion of the noise.
摘要:
A method and apparatus is provided for identifying a cause of a fault based on controller output. The method comprises processing at least one workpiece under a direction of the controller and detecting a fault associated with the processing of the at least one workpiece. The method further includes determining a plurality of possible causes of the detected fault, identifying a more likely possible cause out of the plurality of possible causes, providing fault information associated with the identified more likely possible cause to the controller. The method further includes providing fault information associated with the identified more likely possible cause to the controller. The method further comprises adjusting the processing of one or more workpieces to be processed next based on the fault information provided to the controller. The method further includes generating prediction data associated with processing of the next workpieces, and comparing the prediction data to processing data associated with the processing of the next workpieces to identify a possible cause of the fault.

A metbod for perforning a wafer-less qualification of a processing tool includes creating a wafer-less qualification model for the processing tool. Qualification data is generated from the processing tool iiiring a wafer-less qualification process. The qualification data is compared with the wafer-less qualification model. The processig tool is determined to be operating in a predefined state based on the comparison of the qualification data with the wafer-less qualification model.
摘要:
A method and device for thermal creep-sizing an annular-shaped structure. The creep-sizing device includes a ring member with through-holes present between the inner and outer diametrical boundaries of the ring member, and with through-slots alternatingly extending from each through-hole to either the inner or outer diametrical boundary. In use, the ring member is placed within the annular-shaped structure, and pins are installed in the through-holes in the ring member to cause the outer diametrical boundary of the ring member to diametrically expand. The structure and creep-sizing device are then heated so that the mechanically expanded ring member causes the structure to undergo thermal creep-sizing.
