41、ent of process control (4.4.2) are periodic tests and shall be performed at a frequency selected by the vendor unless frequency of testing is specified by purchaser. 4.2.3 Preproduction Tests Tests for all technical requirements are preproduction tests and shall be performed on the first-article shi

42、pment of a casting to a purchaser, when a change in materials and/ or processing requires re-approval as in 4.4.2, and when purchaser deems confirmatory testing to be required. 4.3 Sampling and Testing Shall be in accordance with the following: SAE INTERNATIONAL AMS4229G Page 6 of 8 4.3.1 One chemic
