Training staff shall:
G ive constructive feedback on the participants’ above practice
VACUUM CONSOLIDATION
Learning objectives:
Participants can recognise the challenges that can arise from creating a vacuum in a repair setting and ways to mitigate against these challenges (Knowledge, basic level) Participants can act independently in documenting and applying vacuum consumables to the repair in the correct order, and achieve the correct vacuum levels in accordance with a work instruction (Ability, intermediate level) Participants can act independently in reading a vacuum gauge to verify and to be able to document the vacuum level applied to the repair (Ability, intermediate level)
Training staff shall:
Explain the challenges that can arise from creating a vacuum in a repair setting by considering the surface finish of the blade, the porosity of the laminate, the core material in the blade and the distance from the repair to the vacuum pump. Discuss ways in which to mitigate against these challenges Demonstrate how to apply vacuum consumables to a repair to achieve the specified vacuum levels as stated in a work instruction Demonstrate the application of flash tape and tacky tape prior to applying resin to ensure that the flash tape and tacky tape will adhere to the surface. Demonstrate how to prevent contamination of the tape by using masking tape
Demonstrate how to record and document the vacuum level using a vacuum gauge
Facilitate practice to improve the participants abilities to:
a. apply vacuum consumables to the repair in the correct order and achieve the correct vacuum levels in accordance with a work instruction b. read a vacuum gauge to verify and to be able to document the vacuum level applied to the repair
The participants shall:
Practice the ability to apply vacuum consumables to the repair in the correct order and achieve the correct vacuum levels in accordance with a work instruction Practice the ability to read a vacuum gauge to verify and to be able to document the vacuum level applied to the repair
Training staff shall:
Give constructive feedback on the participants’ above practice
