Assembly & Integration of a Service Module Fairing Installation Tool
At EMF, Inc. we specialize in the engineering, fabrication, and installation of precision components and assemblies used in the aerospace industry. The assembly highlighted here is used to install service module fairings at the Kennedy Space Center in Florida. The completed assembly measures 11' in length, 17' in width, 18' in height, and weighs 11,000 lbs. We machined and fabricated all of the components for this project. Our machining and fabrication abilities are unique in that we are equally capable of producing precision components as small as a coin as well as large, complex assemblies. As a specialty fabrication shop, our services are set up for versatility.
After fabrication, functionality and proof load testing were performed at the sub-assembly and full assembly level. The assembly was then installed in the customer's facility and integrated into their existing equipment. A number of MSFC NASA technical standards as well as ASME, AWS, and Mil-Spec specifications were met in the fabrication and testing of this assembly. For additional details about the installation and assembly of this custom aerospace tooling project, see the table below, or contact us directly.
