Abstract

Fastening is a recurrent assembly operation at the aerospace industry. Among the many different types of fasteners being used blind ones offer particular advantages but there is yet a lack of reliable installation monitoring methods for their massive adoption. The present paper proposes an installation evaluation solution for blind fasteners that integrates the effect of the previous drilling operation and allows the visualization of the relationships between hole quality parameters, installation variables and installation quality. The results show high precision values of 0.95 and accuracy of 0.9.
