Other Mechanical Issues

• Wire winches

  • Shipped to Mitaka. We need a coordination with Ikenoue-san for this work (Takahashi)

• Clean work procedure
  • Will be discussed in F2F.
• #BF Optimal Weight (Takahashi)
  • #Balast masses: Delivered to Mitaka. Will send them to Kamioka (Hirata)
• #IM wire clamps
  • #Need to send the wire clamps used for the test hanging to I-ject: it was sent to I-ject (Takahashi)
• #Traverser actuation check (Shoda)
• #PR CAD model and assembly drawings (Hirata)
  • Aso calculated the rotation angle
    • PR3: 0.786deg counter clockwise from the line connecting the centers of the PR3 and BS chambers.
    • Will make a report soon.
• #Wire cleaning (Hirata)

  • Hirata will order 20m more wires. -> Delivered. Will wipe in the next week. -> Finished. Will send to Kamioka soon.

  • Will wash Tungsten wire delivery status -> Delivered. Will wipe in the next week -> Finished. Will send to Kamioka soon.

• #Production of additional PR winches (Akutsu)

  • Shipping status (Takahashi, Hirata) -> Wrapped. Will be shipped with IP in the next week.

• #OSEM assembly status (Akutsu)
• #List of what should be changed for PR3 hanging
  • People should share ideas whenever they come up with missing thigns.
  • Shoda made a spread sheet for keep tracking the ideas

    • https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1zZaLObWjDSEOTrr85Hz0ApXxEUChK3xJ_chk0f7r5nY/edit?usp=sharing

    • All the items are now done or being taken care of
• #Missing items(to be purchased soon)

  • #Traverser motor driver (Shoda) -> Will discuss Uraguchi-san. Need a box for stepping motor driver. -> These are for PR2. Will be ordered sometime.

Electronics

• What are necessary in the next few weeks ?
  • Nothing
• Electronics diagram and review
  • Had a review on PR3 on Thursday
  • We still need an overview diagram
• Watch dog system (Tanaka)
  • Status ?
• #LVDT distributor connector problem

  • Miyakawa-san circulated a design of the conversion cable (D9-D15): drawing

• #Digital System (Okutomi, Fujii)
• #Cable status (Takahashi)

  • Need to send more PTFE cable to finish the remaining two -> Will do it in the next week

  • Need to send the cables used for the test hanging once it is finished. -> Will send them once the test hanging is disassembled.

• #Cable check
  • Liu-kun Zhao-kun finished checking all the cables. They found another broken cable.
  • Will send the broken cables together with the other cable related items (Takahashi).

bKAGRA preparation

• Three big categories of the tasks
  • Type-A: Leader = Takahashi: Task list, team members
  • Type-B (BS and SRC): Leader = Mark: Task list, team members
  • Type-Bp modification: Continue discussion (Aso, Raffaele)

Common Issues

BS and SR

• Task listKAGRA/Subgroups/VIS/TypeB/TaskList

  • Kick off meeting within February (Mark)
• BS prism preparation
  • Contacted the company LIGO used for the possibility of buying sapphire prisms (Mark)
  • They are happy to take an order. No Japanese agent. But international order can be taken.

  • Will ask for the lead time to the company (Mark) Drawing to be sent (LIGO drawing) -> Send the drawing to the companies immediately

• Can we make SR wire breakers bigger ?

  • Asked Fuskushima-san about the possibility of widening the slits (Takahashi) -> It is possible but there is a risk of slight deformation.

  • We will try to widen the slit using the dirty RM used for the test hanging.

  • We need to decide on how much to widen. Check what happens if we use 5mm tall prism on CAD (Hirata) -> Result

    • Make the slit wider by 3mm will interfere with a M5 threaded hole
      • The hole is needed to keep the mechanical rigidity
      • Can make a new M5 hole somewhere near by ?

    • Check what happens if we widen the slit by 3.75mm and make a new M5 (Hirata) -> Result
      

      • Then we will talk to Fukushima-san again
    • If the design of the SR prisms can be the same as BS, it will be a good idea to order them at once.
      • Check if the BS prism can be used(Mark)

• Flag design (Mark)
  

  • Mark will sort out the ideas and organize a specialized meeting.

• IP base clamp (Fabian): Picture -> Reduce the number of clamps

• Bread board spring (Takahashi): Slides

• New accelerometer for IP (Joris)
  • Will give a talk at an NAOJ seminar in March
• #BS Assembly Frame Design (Aso, Hirata)
• #BS gluing jigs (Tatsumi)
• #Not enough crane height problem (Hirata, Saito)
• #BS clean bag (Aso)

• Fishing rod production status (Takahashi)
  • Ordered the material for the blades.
  • Stepping motors were ordered.
  • Mechanical parts remaining to be ordered (have drawings already)
• #Type-A Filters Optimal Load Measurements

  • #Takahashi will make a plan for the optimal load check and ask ATC.-> Check two filters per month from April 2016. -> Will be presented to the ATC steering committee.

  • #How to manufacture the long maraging wires ?
    • One prototype was machined by Ojima

    • Aoshima can do the heat treatment for the long rod. Will ask them soon (Takahashi) -> Still waiting for a quotation.

    • How to test it ?
      • We can use the prototype assembly frame in TAMA.

• #PR2 Wire breaker problem
  • Prism removal from PR2 (Hirose, Mark)
    • Not yet ready

Other

• Safety

• #Installation procedure document
  • Many people need to contribute to the document. However, we need one person responsible for the consistency of the document.
