33、 QUALITY ASSURANCE PROVISIONS 4.1 Responsibility for Inspection The vendor of castings shall supply all samples for vendors tests and shall be responsible for the performance of all required tests. Purchaser reserves the right to sample and to perform any confirmatory testing deemed necessary to ens

34、ure that the castings conform to specified requirements. 4.2 Classification of Tests 4.2.1 Acceptance Tests Except as specified in 4.2.1.1, composition (3.1), tensile properties of specimens cut from castings (3.6.1.1) or, when specified, from integrally cast coupons (3.6.1.2) or separately cast spe

35、cimens (3.6.1.3), and quality (3.8) are acceptance tests and shall be performed to represent each melt or heat treat lot as applicable. 4.2.1.1 Tensile properties of separately cast specimens or integrally cast coupons shall be determined when specified by purchaser or when specimens cut from castin

36、gs cannot be obtained. Tensile properties of separately cast specimens or from integrally cast coupons need not be determined when tensile properties of specimens cut from castings are determined. 4.2.2 Periodic Tests Microstructure and TiB2homogeneity analysis (3.7) and radiographic inspection (3.8

37、.3) following the establishment 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 All technical requirements are preproduction tests and shall be performed on the

38、 first-article shipment of a casting to a purchaser, when a change in material and/or processing requires reapproval 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: 4.3.1 Two chemical analysis specimens in

39、 accordance with 3.4.1 from each melt for conformance to 3.1. 4.3.2 One or more preproduction castings in accordance with 4.4.1 of each part number. 4.3.3 Not less than two tensile specimens machined from a casting or castings from each heat treat lot except when purchaser specifies use of separatel

40、y cast specimens as in 4.3.3 or integrally cast coupons as in 4.3.3.1. If the number and locations of specimens are not shown on the drawing, not less than two specimens, one from the thickest section and one from the thinnest section, shall be cut from a casting or castings from each heat treat lot

41、. 4.3.3.1 When permitted by purchaser, test bars integrally cast with the castings may be tested in lieu of testing specimens cut from castings. Size, number, and location of integrally cast coupons shall be as specified on the casting drawing or as agreed upon by purchaser and vendor. 4.3.3.2 When

42、permitted by purchaser, separately cast test bars may be tested in lieu of testing specimens cut from castings. SAE INTERNATIONAL AMS4471A Page 6 of 8 4.3.4 Microstructure and TiB2particle homogeneity of a casting shall be analyzed in the thickest and thinnest sections of the casting, in any purchas

43、er designated areas of the casting, and in the representative tensile specimens to establish limits for acceptance. Analysis methods and limits are proprietary, and subject to supplier control but will include optical micrograph analysis (See 4.4.2.1). 4.4 Approval 4.4.1 Sample castings from new or

44、reworked patterns or molds and the casting procedure shall be approved by purchaser before castings for production use are supplied, unless such approval be waived by purchaser. 4.4.2 Vendor shall establish, for production of sample castings of each part number, parameters for the process control fa

45、ctors which will produce acceptable castings; these shall constitute the approved casting procedure and shall be used for producing production castings. Vendor shall also establish control factors for producing separately cast tensile specimens, but these control factors need not be identical to tho

46、se used for production of castings. If necessary to make any change in parameters for the process control factors, vendor shall submit for reapproval a statement of the proposed changes in processing and, when requested, sample castings, test specimens, or both. Production castings incorporating the

47、 revised operations shall not be shipped prior to receipt of reapproval. 4.4.2.1 Control factors for producing castings and separately cast tensile specimens include, but are not limited to the following. Suppliers procedures shall identify tolerances, ranges and/or control limits as applicable. Typ
