Hi all,
I dont know wether this thread already exist or not, cannot find it.
I am in charge of company's calibration lab.
I have a problem that required help from Elsmar Cove members. Within our composites manufacturing process, there is a process that need composites to be cured inside a pressurized oven (@300F++). this oven calibration interval is 30days (customer req.). now it is already exceeding due date at about 31days and it is allowable per our internal procedure (10% extension). calibration of this oven will expired on 31st May. actual expired date was 28th May. so, on 30th May 11.59:59pm and beyond, this oven no longer can be used (on paper). we will not allow them to start any cure after 12.00:00am 31st May.
my question (also asked by production team), IF composites cure start at 9.00pm on 30th May, and finish cure at about 3.00am 31st May, is that cure acceptable or not?
p/s:
1) Oven = Autoclave we called it here.
2) 10% extension = set by company, i dont quite agree with this number, can i revised it to 25% ?
