Abstract
Aspects of the disclosure are directed to a first chip ring that includes a first through slot, a second chip ring that includes a second through slot, and a component disposed between the first chip ring and the second chip ring that includes a component through slot, where the first, second and component through slots are coaxial along a slot axis this is oriented at a non-zero valued angle relative to a planar surface of the component facing at least one of the first and second chip rings.
Claims18
A system comprising:
- a first chip ring that includes a first through slot;
- a second chip ring that includes a second through slot;
- and
- a component disposed between the first chip ring and the second chip ring that includes a component through slot, where the first, second and component through slots are coaxial along a slot axis this is oriented at a non-zero valued angle relative to a planar surface of the component facing at least one of the first and second chip rings.

A method comprising:
- coupling a first chip ring to a component with intimate contact between the first chip ring and the component;
- applying a tooth of a broach tool to the first chip ring to form a first through slot;
- and
- applying the tooth of the broach tool to the component subsequent to applying the tooth of the broach tool to the first chip ring to form a component though slot in the component, where the first and component through slots are coaxial along a slot axis that is normal to a planar surface of the component facing the first chip ring.
