Molten metal taken from alloying furnaces, with or without additions of foundry operating scrap (gates, sprues, risers, and rejected castings), shall not be

16、 poured into castings unless first converted to ingot, analyzed, and remelted or unless the composition of a sample taken after the last addition to the melt conforms to 3.1. 3.3.1 A melt shall be the metal withdrawn from a batch-furnace charge of 2000 pounds (907 kg) or less as melted for pouring c

17、astings or, when permitted by purchaser, a melt shall be 4000 pounds (1814 kg) or less of metal withdrawn from one continuous furnace in not more than eight consecutive hours. 3.3.2 A lot shall be all castings poured from a single melt in not more than eight consecutive hours. 3.4 Chemical Analysis

19、ge of the castings. 3.5.1.1 Castings shall have smooth surfaces and shall be well cleaned. 3.5.2 When specified, castings shall be produced under radiographic control. This control shall consist of radiographic examination of castings in accordance with ASTM E1742/E1742M until proper foundry techniq

20、ue, which will produce castings free from harmful internal imperfections, is established for each part number and of production castings as necessary to ensure maintenance of satisfactory quality. 3.5.3 When specified, castings shall be subjected to fluorescent penetrant inspection in accordance wit

21、h ASTM E1417/E1417M. 3.5.4 Radiographic, fluorescent penetrant, contrast dye penetrant, and other quality standards shall be as agreed upon by purchaser and producer. ASTM E505 may be used to define radiographic acceptance standards. 3.5.5 Castings shall not be peened, plugged, impregnated, or welde

22、d unless authorized by purchaser. 3.5.5.1 When authorized by purchaser, welding in accordance with AMS2694 or other welding program approved by purchaser may be used. 3.5.5.2 Chemical treatment, coating, or other process to prevent leakage shall be performed as specified by drawing or as authorized

23、by purchaser. 3.5.6 Castings shall not be impregnated, chemically treated, or coated to prevent leakage unless specified or allowed by written permission of purchaser, designating the method to be used.

24、pection The producer of castings shall supply all samples for producers 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 ensure that the castings conform to the specified requi

25、rements. 4.2 Classification of Tests All technical requirements of this specification are acceptance tests and as preproduction tests and shall be performed prior to or on the first-article shipment of a casting to a purchaser, on each lot, when a change in material and/or processing requires reappr

26、oval as in 4.4.2, and when purchaser deems confirmatory testing to be required. 4.3 Sampling Shall be in accordance with the following: 4.3.1 At least one chemical analysis specimen in accordance with 3.4 and with ASTM B953 from each melt or a casting from each lot. 4.3.2 Two preproduction castings

28、oduction of sample castings of each part number, parameters for the process control factors that will produce acceptable castings; these shall constitute the approved casting procedure and shall be used for producing production castings. Producer shall also establish control factors for producing se

29、parately cast tensile specimens, but these control factors need not be identical to those used for production of castings. If necessary to make any change in parameters for the process control factors, producer shall submit for reapproval a statement of the proposed changes in processing and, when r

32、 and cooling procedures Straightening procedure, when applicable Cleaning operations Methods of inspection Radiographic sampling plan, if used. 4.4.2.1.1 Any of the process control factors for which parameters are considered proprietary by the producer may be assigned a code designation. Each variat

33、ion in such parameters shall be assigned a modified code designation. 4.4.2.1.2 Detail of the process control shall be available for purchasers review/audit at the foundry facility. SAE INTERNATIONAL AMS4490K Page 5 of 6 4.5 Reports The producer of castings shall furnish with each shipment a report

This report shall include the purchase order number, lot number, AMS4490K, part number,

35、 and quantity. 4.5.1 When material produced to this specification is beyond the sizes allowed in the scope or tables, or other exceptions are taken to the technical requirements listed in Section 3, (see 5.1.2) the report shall contain a statement “This material is certified as AMS4490K(EXC) because

36、 of the following exceptions:“ and the specific exceptions shall be listed. 4.6 Resampling and Retesting If any specimen used in the above tests fails to meet the specified requirements, disposition of the castings may be based on the results of testing two additional specimens for each original non

37、conforming specimen. Failure of any retest specimen to meet the specified requirements shall be cause for rejection of the castings represented. Results of all tests shall be reported. 5. PREPARATION FOR DELIVERY 5.1 Identification Shall be in accordance with AMS2804. 5.1.1 Impregnated castings shal

38、l be marked “IMP“. 5.1.2 When technical exceptions are taken (see 4.5.1), the material shall be marked with AMS4490K(EXC). 5.2 Protective Treatment Prior to shipment, castings shall be coated with a light corrosion-inhibiting oil, unless chrome pickling in accordance with AMS2475 is required by the

39、purchaser. 5.3 Packaging Castings shall be prepared for shipment in accordance with ASTM B660 and in compliance with applicable rules and regulations pertaining to the handling, packaging, and transportation of the castings to ensure carrier acceptance and safe delivery. 6. ACKNOWLEDGMENT A producer

40、 shall mention this specification number and its revision letter in all quotations and when acknowledging purchase orders. 7.
