Mechanical properties of the fully processed part shall meet the requirements of WS

4、S-M99P39-A1/A4 or shall be listed in detail on the individual part Engineering Drawing. Mechanical properties of the fully processed part are a function of the specific press hardening process selected for part manufacture. The complete part fabrication process shall be outlined in detail in the Pro

5、cess Flow Diagram/PFMEA and maintained in accordance with the documented Control Plan. 2.1 LIMITATIONS Due to the hardenability response of this material, individual welding schedules must be developed for each application (see also para. 3.7.) Forming of the blank prior to austenitization is expect

6、ed for materials supplied to this specification Austenitization by induction heating is not allowed. Stress relief annealing or hydrogen bake-out processes (per WSS-M99A3-A) may be necessary for certain process paths and shall be described in detail in the part Suppliers Control Plan. De-scaling par

7、ts by acid pickling is not allowed. 3. REQUIREMENTS 3.1 STANDARD REQUIREMENTS FOR PRODUCTION MATERIALS Material suppliers and part producers must conform to the Companys Standard Requirements For Production Materials (WSS-M99P1111-A).

10、fer to WSS-M99P39-A1/A4 for the allowable thickness reduction that results from the press hardening process. 3.2.2 Other Dimensional Tolerances Length, width, flatness, camber, and mass tolerances for the material as delivered by the steel supplier are defined by the relevant national standards. 3.3

11、 MANUFACTURING/PROCESS REQUIREMENTS Final material properties in the part are achieved by heat treatment. Forming of the blank prior to austenitization is expected for materials supplied to this specification. Austenitization by induction heating is not allowed. Quenching shall be accomplished by an

12、y method (e.g., coolant - jacketed die, direct water contact) that achieves the required final part properties. The specific method shall be described in detail in the part Suppliers Control Plan. The microstructure of the steel in the final part shall be effectively 100% tempered martensite with a

13、small amount of bainite likely and allowed. Stress relief annealing or hydrogen bake-out processes (per WSS-M99A3-A) may be necessary for certain process paths and shall be described in detail in the part Suppliers Control Plan. De-scaling parts by acid pickling is not allowed. ENGINEERING MATERIAL
