| * Mark, Fabian and Enzo continued BS Test Hang work: * We installed the BF fishing rod stepper motor adaptor cable. * We tried to install the BF LVDT cable but first we encountered trouble routing it, and then several wires broke at the D-Sub end. * We laid 6 in-air cables from the tank to the PR2 rank for BF and SF picos, steppers and LVDTs. * We lifted the BF/IRM/IM/RM/BS section to weigh it and check its balance. * It was 195.6 kg, which is 18 kg(!) less than the capacity of the SF. * There was a major imbalance in roll: with all four built-in trim masses moved up the +Y end, it still needed 270 g of extra trim mass to be level. * Unfortunately when we put the payload, the IM was slightly yawed and ended up on the horizontal EQ stop screws. This let the IM-BF maraging rod go slack, which disturbed the leveling of the IM (because every time it is picked up the maraging rod settles in a different place, giving a different suspension point). We may have to partly disassemble the IRM and rearrange the time mass on the the IM. * We shipped BS mirror box parts to Shoda-san and components for a new LVDT cable to Hirata-san. * We posed for pictures of the BS by a team from National Geographic. * Hirata-san * Did parts and fastener lists for the SR payload. * Did a 3D model with the SR suspension on the BS assembly frame (to help Mark make adjustments to the frame design). * Did 2D drawings of Fabian's concept for BS EQ stop parts. * Did a 3D model of a wire clamp with replaceable jaw parts (to avoid having to reuse parts with scars from pressure). * Did 2D drawings of a new wire clamps for on top of the BS and SR RMs. |
* Hirata-san: * 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. |
