Tom,
I believe these files represent the completed in house verification:
VVSA #1, #2, and #3; VVSA spool pieces #1, #2, and #3.
We have accepted Major Tools scan but they were self generated without any independent check.
Our in house scans represent an independent check.

Please provide an acceptance statement of each or all of the VVSA parts.

I should remind you that the port 4 and port 12 surfaces are bowed and out of tolerance per the Major Tool scans and associated NCR's and are not part of these scans nor do I plan to have them done unless you require it.  

I would also ask you to file these files with the other files in your metrology folder since they form the baseline file set for machine assembly.

Thanks,

Mike Viola, PPPL, (609) 243 3655

Mike,

here are the VVSA_Spool_Piece_3 inspection reports generated from the 
measurements done here at PPPL.  The spool piece was best fit using points 
from the outer shell , tube and flange inner facing surface(s).  The 
remaining measurement data was not included in the best fit, but did move 
with the translation matrix.

If needed, we can generate additional reports and /or IGES files of any (or 
all) of the points we measured.

Steve
