15、,-SAE AS478 Revision N - 3 - 2.2.5 PERMANENT MARKING Marking which will ensure identification during the normal service life of the item. Methods of permanent marking are listed in 4.1. 2.2.6 TEMPORARY MARKING Marking which will ensure identification during ordinary handling and storage of items pri

16、or to assembly and use. Under certain service conditions these markings may exhibit the characteristics of permanent markings. Temporary marking methods are listed in 4.2. 2.2.7 OPTICAL CHARACTER RECOGNITION An automatic data entry system that utilizes predefined human readable shaped alphanumeric c

17、haracter fonts which can be read by automatic scanning equipment. 3. GENERAL REQUIREMENTS Items shall be marked in accordance with this standard unless otherwise specified on the item drawing. The method of marking shall be designated as shown in 6.1. 3.1 Marking Location Location of marking on item

18、s shall be in accordance with the following as applicable: 3.1.1 General The symbol as shown in Figure 1, or a local note, indicates general location for marking. FIGURE 1 - SYMBOL FOR GENERAL LOCATION FOR MARKING 3.1.2 Pad The symbol as shown in Figure 2, or a local note, indicates pad location for

19、 marking. FIGURE 2 - SYMBOL FOR PAD LOCATION FOR MARKING 3.1.3 Integral The symbol as shown in Figure 3, or a local note, indicates pad location for integral marking (cast, forged, or molded).

FIGURE 4 - SYMBOL FOR

21、 SPECIFIED AREA WITHIN WHICH MARKINGS MUST BE CONFINED 3.1.5 Multiple Where two or more locations for marking are specified, markings shall be grouped so that as few of the locations as practicable are used. 3.2 Permanent Markings Permanent markings are permitted on finished items only when specifie

22、d on the engineering drawing from which the item is manufactured. 3.2.1 Items which require more than one identification number, such as item number, serial number, etc., shall have each number on a separate line; or consecutive identification numbers on the same line shall be separated by no less t

23、han two spaces. The separation or division of the digits of an identification number will not be objectionable provided the digits are in sequence and cannot be misread. 3.2.2 Permanent marking for the general categories of items shall normally be between 0.060 and 0.160 inch (1.5 and 4 mm) in heigh

24、t. In special cases when governed by size or configuration, 0.016 inch (0.4 mm) minimum or 0.250 inch (6.35 mm) maximum height is permissible, or as otherwise specified in this standard or on the item drawing. When integral marking is used, the height should not exceed 0.500 inch (12.7 mm) nominal c

25、haracter size. 3.2.3 Permanent marking is not recommended on contacting surfaces, nor on surfaces which are in motion with respect to the mating surface during operation of the items. However, when permanent markings must be placed on such surfaces, all raised metal and burrs shall be removed in acc

26、ordance with the requirements given on the item drawing. 3.2.4 Permanent markings shall not be applied on surfaces which have been chemically processed, painted, or plated unless the marking will be legible and the minimum requirements of the surface treatment process is maintained or restored. 3.2.

27、5 Permanent markings shall not be nearer than 0.031 inch (0.78 mm) to any corner, fillet, or edge unless specifically designated. Where a specific marking location, as designated and dimensioned, does not provide enough area for 0.031 inch (0.78 mm) distance to any edge, corner, or fillet, the marki

28、ngs shall be centered upon the area without breaking over an edge or encroaching into corners or fillets. When parts are machined from previously marked hexagon bar stock, the 0.031 inch (0.78 mm) edge restriction is waived, provided the marking is legible. 3.2.6 Precautions Stress concentrations re

29、sulting from improper applications of marking methods may cause item distortion or failure. Marking methods, such as methods 4 or 6 in Table 1, may produce secondary effects which are detrimental to item reliability and must be properly evaluated to the item design. Items distorted or otherwise dama

30、ged by marking shall be subject to rejection. Permanent markings not in compliance with the limits given in this standard may be the basis for rejection of the items by the purchaser.

31、ted without license from IHS-,-,-SAE AS478 Revision N - 5 - 3.2.7 Legibility Identification marking shall be legible and make full use of the available marking area. Characters shall be block form capital letters and Arabic numerals without serifs, such as “Gothic“ or “Futura.“ Lower case letters ma

32、y be used when required for metric unit symbols. Other characters shall be of similar appearance. Condensed letters and smeared letters shall be cause for rejection. Templates for the electrochemical process may be produced by a conventional typewriter provided legibility is maintained. Processes pe

33、rformed after marking which may reduce legibility (such as vapor or grit blasting, tumbling, etching, etc.) shall be controlled to prevent loss of legibility. Normally all characters shall be legible without magnification. However, where space or surface condition limits the size of characters that

34、may be used, legibility with 3X magnification maximum is permissible when authorized. 3.2.8 Optical Character Recognition (OCR) Marking requirements for the standard OCR-A character set are specified in ANSI X3.17. The OCR-A marking characters height, width, spacing and positioning requirements are

35、specified in Table 2. See 6.1.1 for an example of designating OCR font marking method. 4. MARKING METHODS 4.1 Permanent Markings Permanent markings shall not affect the function or serviceability of the item. 4.1.1 Integral Characters are produced by casting, forging, or molding into or onto the ite

36、m. 4.1.2 Metal Stamp Characters are produced by forcible displacement of material. 4.1.2.1 Hammer Characters are produced individually or in groups by impact force applied mechanically or by hand. 4.1.2.2 Press Characters are produced individually or in groups with a controlled force applied without

37、 impact. 4.1.2.3 Roll Characters are produced by a rotating motion of either the item or the tool, or both, when in contact with each other under a controlled force. 4.1.2.4 Vibro Peen, Manual Characters are produced by a hand guided rapidly vibrating tool having a pointed tip making indentations on

38、 the item to produce the characters.
