# 13 LGs have been glued so far. The newest glue batch had problems curing.  A new batch arrived today and will be evaluated.  Techs are trained for the gluing.  Three persons are needed to do the job, including prep work.  Shaun's trips to JLab alleviate the pressure on the techs, who can then turn to other tasks.  The current gluing pace is 4 modules per week, so with 35 modules remaining we need 9 weeks more to finish.  If all goes well, this should be completed by mid May.

Attendees: Elton, David (JLab); George, Zisis, Shaun, Andrei (UofR)

Elton gave a detailed overview of the current and planned BCAL activities and timetables.

  1. 13 LGs have been glued so far. The newest glue batch had problems curing. A new batch arrived today and will be evaluated. Techs are trained for the gluing. Three persons are needed to do the job, including prep work. Shaun's trips to JLab alleviate the pressure on the techs, who can then turn to other tasks. The current gluing pace is 4 modules per week, so with 35 modules remaining we need 9 weeks more to finish. If all goes well, this should be completed by mid May.
  2. Mechanical process:
    1. Inspect LGs and glue them.
    2. Form the tedlar covers and tape them onto the LGs.
    3. Mount the LEDs. Inspect them visually (10 V, 100kHz rate).
    4. Move module to test station and use mini BCAL hardware. The final hardware is not quite ready. The alignment jig will arrive this week.
