Operator #1 lines all of the magnets up on the first
row. Operator #2 begins work on the adjacent row
after the first operator completes the first five welds.
This procedure helps make sure that the magnets
remain on the plates for at least one minute. This
method also minimizes motion and increases
productivity.
Magnets from the first row are used by the second
operator in the adjacent row. This procedure continues
across the roof.
Work one row after another for maximum productivity

Night before:
Meet with foreman to discuss tool operation and
project coordination. This is KEY!
Day of:
• Load roof
• Fill flutes
• Apply cover board
• Snap lines over purlins
• Apply fasteners and Flex RhinoBond plates
• Blow any debris off cover boards and plates
with a leaf blower
• Roll out membrane (position sheets so seams
do not fall on rows of plates)
• Let sheets “relax”
• Set seam welders for conditions and weld
membrane seams
• Make sure generator is up to full speed and
delivering stable power before plugging in Flex
RhinoBond tool
• Calibrate Flex RhinoBond tools and start bonding
plates
• Ballast any sections that don’t get welded
Subsequent days:
