**** How to build a Cockpit ****
We will show you, a Cockpit building process by steps.
Just take a look in to the pictures, the explanations, the necessary material
and all the necessary Process Steps
|
|
|
1 - Complete cockpit building device gauge |
2 - Complete cockpit building device gauge |
3 - Vacuum cleaner connection |
|
|
|
4 - Pre-heating system in the top |
4 - Vacuum cleaner conection in the bottom |
5 - Cockpit molde |
|
|
|
6 - Cockpit molde |
7 - The Plastic , is the same used to build the Coco-Cola ; Fanta ; Sprite etc,... bottles |
8 - The thickness is around 0.70 mm |
|
|
|
9 - Is also nice to use different plastic colours in this case is transparent |
10 - The plastic is placed in to the gauge |
11 - The aluminium frame will help to make the correct positioning |
|
|
|
12 - fixing the frame |
13 - Pre-heating the plastic +\- 30 seconds |
14 - If the temperature is to high the plastic will became wait and will became scrap |
|
|
|
15 - After the heating time the plastic frame should be forced down and the vacuum cleaner will assure the cockpit contour |
16 - The frame should be maintained in this position until the plastic temperature will go down |
17 - After the plastic temperature will get cold, the vacuum cleaner should be disconnected. |
|
|
|
18 - Frame Disassembling |
19 - In this phase the plastic should be separated from the cockpit gauge |
20 - Defects analysis |
|
|
|
21 - Separation process |
22 - Separation process |
23 - The compressed air is a very important tool to separate both parts (to avoid damages) |
|
|
|
24 - This separation process ( with compressed air ) is the best solution ( fast and easy ) |
25 - End of the process |
26 - The Cockpit |
This system was completely developed by Mr Jorge Santo. At this moment we need only 5 minutes to build one new cockpit
