29、d to the cognizant agency as directed by the procuring activity, contracting officer, or request for procurement.4.3 Sampling and Testing: Shall be as follows:4.3.1 For Acceptance Tests: Sufficient cloth shall be taken at random from each lot to perform all required tests. The number of determinatio

30、ns for each requirement shall be as specified in the applicable test procedure or, if not specified therein, not less than three.4.3.1.1 A lot shall be all cloth produced in a single production run under the same fixed conditions and presented for vendors inspection at one time.4.3.1.2 The sample un

31、it shall be 5 continuous yards (4.6 m), full width of the finished cloth except for determining the nonfibrous material content, when the sample shall be 9 inches (229 mm) full width of the cloth prior to application of the antistatic finish. Lot shall be unacceptable if one or more sample units fai

SAE INTERNATIONAL AMS3908A Page 6 of 12 4.3.1.3 Yard-by-Yard (Meter-by-Meter) Examination: Each roll in the sample shall be examined on the face side only. When the total length in the roll does not exceed 100 yards (91 m

33、), the entire roll shall be examined. When the total length in the roll exceeds 100 yards (91 m), only 100 yards (91 m) need be examined. All imperfections, as defined in FED-STD-4, Section III, which are visible at normal inspection distance of 3 feet (1 m), shall be scored and assigned demerit poi

34、nts as listed in 4.3.1.3.4 except as follows:4.3.1.3.1 Only coarse yarns that exceed twice the normal yarn diameter shall be scored.4.3.1.3.2 Mixed filling (shade bar) shall be scored only when resulting from wrong ply, wrong twist in the yarn, or off shade yarn.4.3.1.3.3 No linear yard (meter) incr

35、ements on the measuring device of the inspection machine within the sample shall be penalized more than 4 demerit points. The sample size shall be 20 rolls selected from 20 containers or one roll from each container when the lot consists of less than 20 containers. If only one roll exceeds 75 demeri

36、t points per 100 square yards (84 m2), a second sample of 20 rolls, or one roll from each container when the lot consists of less than 20 containers, shall be examined only for fabric imperfections. The lot shall be unacceptable if one or more rolls in the second sample exceeds 75 demerit points per

37、 100 square yards (84 m2).

Any length found to be less than the minimum s

40、pecified or more than 2 yards (1.8 m) less than the length marked on the ticket shall be a defect with respect to length. The lot shall be unacceptable if two or more rolls in the sample are defective in respect to length.4.3.1.4.2 Total Length in Sample: The lot shall be unacceptable if the total o

Any roll in the sample off shade, shaded side to side, s

42、ide to center, or end to end shall be cause for rejection of the entire lot represented.4.3.2 For Preproduction Tests: As agreed upon by purchaser and vendor.4.4 Approval: 4.4.1 Sample cloth shall be approved by purchaser before cloth for production use is supplied, unless such approval be waived by

43、 purchaser. Results of tests on production cloth shall be essentially equivalent to those on the approved sample.4.4.2 Vendor shall use ingredients, manufacturing procedures, processes, and methods of inspection on production cloth which are essentially the same as those used on the approved sample

44、cloth. If necessary to make any change in ingredients, in type of equipment for processing, or in manufacturing procedures, vendor shall submit for reapproval a statement of the proposed changes in ingredients and/or, processing and, when requested, sample cloth. Production cloth made by the revised
