ROT Inspection

Calibration

RIM LOADING:Process:-Rim loading on rim conveyor Process Objective:-To assemble the rim put rim on the conveyor.

Key points :RIM LOADING

1.Ensure the valve hole must be on down side. 2.Check the astatic defect (scoring mark ,butt weld defect, valve hole& marking on front side, air leak test punch)

RIM POSITIONING:Process:-Rim position as per drawing Process Objective:-With help of the valve hole sensor do positioning the valve hole as per drawing. Key points :RIM POSITIONING

1.Ensure the valve hole must be down side 2.Valve hole position must be as per drawing.

DISC LOADING:Process:-Disc loading on disc conveyor Process Objective:-To assemble the disc Put on conveyor.

Key points :DISC LOADING

1.Disc crown area must be on front side or as per picture. 2.Check the astatic defect(scratch/line mark, bolt hole, vent hole damage)

DISC POSITIONING:Process:-Disc positioning w.r.t to bolt hole Process Objective:-With help of bolt hole sensor do positioning the disc as per drg.

Key points :DISC POSITIONING W.R.T BOLT HOLE

1.Disc front side area must be on upper side.

DISC&RIM PRE-ASSEMBLY:Process:-Disc & Rim pre-assembly Process Objective:-Feed the disc in rim for assy.

Key points :DISC & RIM PRE-ASSEMBLY

1.Disc bolt hole & rim valve hole position must be as per drawing.

DISC&RIM ASSEMBLY:Process:-Disc & rim press fit operation Process Objective:-Press the disc & rim with help of hydraulic press as per drawing. Key points :RIM & DISC ASSEMBLY

1.Check the assy dimension as per spec. 2.Marking position on disc as per drawing, defect free in visual.

WELDING:Process:-MIG welding on wheel Process Objective:-To joint the disc & rim do MIG welding on wheel.

Key points :WELDING

1.Mig welding position as per drg. 2.Welding length ,weld penetration, porosity, undercut, weld shift to rim & disc etc. 2

1 4

SPATTER CLEANING:Process:-Clean the weld spatter on wheel Process Objective:-With help of chisel clean the all weld spatter.

Key points :SPATTER CLEANING

1.No any spatter on weld & disc. 2.Weld defect porosity, undercut, pin hole, weld crack etc.

CALIBRATION:Process:-Calibrate the wheel on calibration m/c Process Objective:-With help of calibration tool calibrate the wheel Key points :1.Check the 4bolt hole pin must be in a tool. 2.Wheel must be clean before the calibration operation. 3.All 4spacer must be solid & locked. 4.Check the astatic defect (calibration tool mark, bolt hole damage etc.)

CALIBRATION

ROT INSPECTION:Process:-Runout checking on ROT m/c. Process Objective:-Runout checking with help of ROT m/c.

Key points :RUN OUT TESTION M/C

1.Wheel front side must be on upper side. 2.Wheel ,roller & fixture must be clean. 3.Check the runout limit as per drawing.

WHEEL INSPECTION:Process:-Wheel final inspection Process Objective:-Wheel visual inspection by Quality like dent mark ,mig weld defect, line mark, pin hole,weld crack etc. Key points :WHEEL INSPECTION

1.Ensure the inspector having knowledge about Wheel defect( porosity, undercut, weld shift, tool mark etc.) 2.He must be know about MARU-A, safety & critical characteristics of wheel.
