Production line for PFCs with FMDs

A production line for PFCs with FMDs, comprising:

• a conveyor system, the conveyor system operable to convey the PFCs;
• a supply system, the supply system operable to make the FMDs;
• an installation system, the installation system including an installation tool, the installation tool including a mandrel, a platen, a platen heater, and a platen actuator, the installation tool configured to receive the FMDs from the supply system in part around the mandrel and in part around the platen, configured to insert into the PFCs on the conveyor system, and operable to install the FMDs thereto by the operation of the platen heater to heat the platen and the platen actuator to radially expand the platen;
• a test system upstream of the installation system, the test system operable to conduct leakproofness tests on the PFCs on the conveyor system;
• and
• a check system downstream of the installation system, the check system operable to conduct FMD checks on the PFCs on the conveyor system.
