Abstract

Rapid diagnosis and repair of riveting machine malfunctions are essential to meet critical production schedules at Boeing Military Airplanes. Repairs are often delayed because the maintenance technician assigned may lack the knowledge and experience required to quickly isolate and correct the problem. This paper presents an Expert Maintenance System for Riveters (EMSR) developed to assist inexperienced technicians with the diagnosis and repair of nine Boeing modified Gemcor 400/200A CNC riveters. EMSR has captured the expertise of Boeing's most skilled riveter maintenance technicians in an expert system created using Texas Instrument's Personal Consultant™ Plus development tool.
