AMD installation in progress
Sebastien, Betsy, and Slawek


We installed AMD 1 and 2 on ETMy today. It went very well, no issue to report.  We applied the required force on each AMD (~250 g). The bond looks homogeneous with tiny excess epoxy ring around the AMD base, as expected. Curing will take 24 hours. We did the dynamic test of the epoxy before installation and it was successful. Installation of AMD 3 and 4 is scheduled for Thursday morning (3/29).
