1.0 GOAL
Hose Assembly Assurance Manual defines assembly process in order to garantee and assure that all operation of assembly productions are made following requirements requested by Customer Specifications e by Manuli Specifications.
2.0 APPLICATION FIELD
Work and control phases described in this Manual are applicable only to the activity of Hose Assembly production.
Each assembly phase is numbered with reference to Manufacturing and Control Sheet

PRODS

• Issue MF/C with reference to internal order and give to production.
• Operate swaging machine. At this operation, PRODS has to assure on every hose assembly that they are made following MF/C.

PROD

• Has the responsibility to assembly and to control along the manufacturing process following what is written in SF/C.

QAS

• Operate test pressure machine and report test result.
• Issue NON CONFORM PRODUCT SHEET of NC

PHASE 1                                       HOSE TYPE

PHASE 2                      CUT LENGTH / INTERAXLE LENGTH

OPERATIONS	MACHINE	SHEET OF REFERENCE
Cut length is indicated in MF/C. If it is not specified, operate as follow: n     consider interaxle length “L” of assembly indicated in MF/C; n     subtract from the measure of interaxle length “L”  the sum of fittings length “x”, considering the measure from the abutting end of rubber hose to the fitting interaxle n     subtract to the result obtained the extension obtained  during the crimping phase (5mm for braided hose and 8mm for spiralled hose)	L             x
Set the hose cut measure	steel ruler
Attention: cut must be perpendicular to the hose		cut section YES NO
Switch on the machine and wait until the number of cycles is stable.	cutting machine
Rule downward speed of blade (knife) depending on type of hose to be cut. A wrong regulation of downward speed can break the blade. For spiralled hose : minimum speed for all other types : normal speed.	cutting machine
Speed can be regulated with the handle on the left of cutting machine.  Turning the handle anticlockwise speed increases and viceversa.	cutting machine	Front side handle
Control cut rubber hose length and writ it on MF/C.	Steel ruler

PHASE 3                                                    OUTSIDE SKIVE

PHASE 4                                                              INSIDE SKIVE

PHASE 5                                           INSIDE/OUTSIDE SKIVE CONTROL

PHASES 6                                1^ST FITTING / 2^ND FITTING

PHASE 7                                           ORIENTATION

PHASES 8                          MANUFACTURING DATE MARKING

PHASES 9                   CRIMPING DIAMETER AND CRIMPING DIAMETER  CONTROL

PHASE 10                                         PROOF TEST (IF REQUESTED)

PHASE 11                               HOSE FLUSHING (IF REQUESTED)

OPERATIONS	MACHINE	SHEET OF REFERENCE
THE USE OF GLOVES IN THIS PHASE IS COMPULSORY
Control oil level with dipstick. If oil is under the half fill it up with oil.	Dipstick
Prepare the machine according to the hoses diameter, following the machine chart for the time and number of pumps	FMX 150	MOD. MOT06
Screw hoses on the rack in the correct way, being careful with long hoses, with wide bend radius (it is sufficient to screw two turns)
Push the two buttons on the sides of the bench. Door closes and automatically cycle works.	Front side       buttons
Door opens automatically, unscrew the hoses and put them on the rack to drip.
Attention: fluid used in this phase is oil for spark erosion (BP/HP-0 FINA IT/11-004 FINA PARAPUR/1013) and pollution grade to specifics NAS 1638 is checked monthly in an outside laboratory. According to the analysis results: if the value of fluid is less or equal to 8 NAS can be used till the following month; if it is more or equal to 9 NAS must be changed by TEQ.

PHASE 12                                                  CAPPING (IF REQUESTED)

NOTE
The handling of hoses from the cutting phase to the fitting assembly/crimping one and from the latter and the flushing phase, has to be done by racks which can garantee outside hose cleanliness and prevent abrasions due to trailing along the floor.
