FMI Monolithic Design & Build Project Wingtip Assembly
33
■ FMI was responsible as the primary design and build company ■ FMI‘s machining concept was to utilize our single spindle BO-KO 6 axis with a nutating head, along with a 45 degree tool ■ There are 3 set ups for the Monolithic frame design to complete machining, opposed to 60 multiple part set ups for machined and sheet metal details in the original design configuration ■ The FMI Monolithic Design reduced the manufacturing lead time by 4 weeks, approximately a 65% lead-time reduction Wingtip Assembly – FMI Monolithic Machining
34
■ There are 2 design configurations, one with a logo light and one without ■ The FMI Monolithic Design reduced the assembly from 60 machined and sheet metal details to 9 machined components ■ Original Assembly time was reduced by 83% from 350 hrs to 60 hrs Monolithic Assembly Process
