IN-PROCESS MANUFACTURING SURVEILLANCE
JBTC has performed many manufacturing surveillance activities. These activities typically occur at specific points in the manufacturing cycle. Clients define with the vendor the points at which they prefer to have a surveillance performed. Examples of surveillance points are end of coil winding, end of core building, and the end of active part assembly and pre-tanking process.
JBTC has the expertise to conduct these surveillance activities since Mr. Templeton has not only engineering experience, but also manufacturing experience. Over the years numerous issues have been identified during these surveillance activities that could have led to failures during FAT or in service. As mentioned previously, these activities can be performed for both shell form and core form transformers.
