Press and Stamping Plant Check Up Welding Tools

10 May 2017

The mass check-up of welding tools has started at the Press and Stamping Plant of KAMAZ (part of Rostec State Corporation).

The quality of units and components delivered to the main assembly line of the Automobile Plant directly depends on the condition of machining attachments. In the first run, the management of the plant paid attention to the chassis shop auxiliaries: the list of items produced here includes 1500 products. For two months 324 of 883 devices have been checked. Products welded on each of them were sent to be checked up in the laboratory of technical accuracy. 

Thanks to the modern tools, it will take a short while to measure necessary parameters. If a detail complies to the design documentation, the device continues to be used. If the size and geometry of supporting brackets don't conform to the standard, the devices are to be repaired. In order to accelerate the process, some of the tools which require minor repair are fixed by the adjusters of the chassis shop, the rest tools are sent to the section of welding tools repair. In such a way, 54 machines have already been repaired. It should be noted that with an increment load the employees of the shop successfully realize the production plan, the number of details complies with the order, and their quality is significantly higher.
