* Received many parts from i-ject for BFRM (took pictures and took them into ATC cleanroom). * got quotes for PRM/SRM payload from i-ject. * Checked quotes and asked for some modifications.) * Washed parts (parts for type-A, small hexagons, screws, etc\) * Wiped 9 piano wires and sent to Kamioka for PR. * pdated Fabian's EQstop parts for BS recoilmass and updated EQstop assy drawings. * Fabian * Worked out geometry for blade adjustment. * Designed additional ballast masses for BS BF (and SR). * Mark and Enzo (at Kamioka) * Did two rounds of adjustment of the blades with help from Takahashi-san (one for position, one for frequency) * Surveyed the position of the rod using the vertical mode of the bubble level. * Got apparent improvement as judged at the IRM-IM EQ stops (but still not perfect). * Did one more round of blade adjustments (without Takahashi-san) * Got good agreement with IRM-IM EQ stops, so put BF cap on and raised the whole system to check for balance. * Found balance still fairly bad: about the same on the -X,+Y diagonal and about half on the +X,+Y diagonal (70 and 30 mm worth of motion of a single trim mass respectively; previous a bit over 70 mm each). * From the imbalance torques, calculated the offset of rod as 2.3 mm in the direction 22 degrees to the +X side of -Y. * Calculated the blade adjustments required: {-0.325194, -1.79175, 2.11695} mm * Prepared to apply adjustments (removed cap etc). |
* Did drawings of SR damper. * Mark, Fabian, Enzo and Hirata-san (at Kamioka): * Took the end plate off the IM to get access to the pitch/roll picos. * Found the pitch pico was unreliable and replaced it. * Found the springs were not stiff enough, and immobilized 7 turns at the end of each with Cu wire to make them stiffer. * Reassembled and rebalanced the IM. * Reassembled and adjusted the IRM. * Discovered that the transverse offset between IRM and IM could be corrected by adjusting the roll of the BF. * Adjusted IM OSEMs to half-way. * Made and installed a new pair of wires for the BF yaw pico on the IM pico adapter (Hirata-san). * Installed an improved LVDT cable made by Hirata-san. * Made and hung posters for the Elites meeting visitors. |
