RobertsSubject: Voyager - Power Subsystem Power Distribution Flight Relay Procurement (1975) Abstract: Voyagers discovery of defective component lots in wel

2、ded module assemblies led to a re-procurement of the flight relays. For procurement of parts with a prior history of problem/failures, evaluate the design and workmanship of the current production and determine the need for JPL inspections and special screening tests.Description of Driving Event: (R

3、elevant Historical Lesson(s) Learned)During flight welded module fabrication (2) 3SBM relay failures occurred. One relay failed due to a shorted coil, the other failure was due to a broken weld. Subsequent JPL failure analysis on (14) additional flight relays showed failed conditions in one or more

4、of the armature positioning welds.An investigative team visited the vendor to review the failures and the relay manufacturing process/Quality Assurance (QA) controls. The welding process suffered from a component “fit“ problem, worn welding fixtures and an absence of weld schedules. The coil lead op

5、eration had no instructions that precluded the possibility of coil shorts. The QA coverage lacked a systematic method of keeping records and employing corrective action.Based on the deficiencies found in the manufacturing process and the inability to cull defective relays in a non-destructing manner

6、 from the existing flight lots, a re-procurement of flight relays was initiated. The modifications to the fabrication process include: (a) component part inspection prior to kitting, (b) development of weld schedules and weld inspection criteria, and (c) JPL inspection points established at critical

9、ation results in major program impacts. There are unavoidable schedule slips due to the re-procurement and replacement of parts and welded modules. Flight hardware quality is jeopardized by the resulting rework and retest effort.The pre-cap visual inspection alone on a densely packed relay provides

10、little insight into the quality of its individual subassemblies. Screening tests are not 100% effective in elimination of defective units.Recommendation(s): Procurement of parts with a prior history of problem/failures should be specifically re-evaluated prior to re-use on a subsequent flight progra

Both design and workmanship of the current production output should be evaluated to establish the quality of the product and the critical points in the manufacturing process where JPL inspections should be negotiated into the purchase order. Special screening tests and/or additional special burn-
