2、PE1.1 Scope. The principal objective is to prescribe microfilming requirementsand testing guidance for engineering data (see 6.4.1) source document filming anddelivery of the filmed images to primary DoD repositories (see 3.1.2.2).MIL-M-9868 contractual requirements, Sections 3, 4, and 5, only cover
3、 Type I film(silver-halide). Type II (diazo) and Type III (vesicular) film requirements arenot covered but, where appropriate, their relationships are discussed for clari-fication purposes. Additionally, source document imaging accomplished through theuse of an engineering data Computer-output iicro
4、film (COM) device (see 3.3.1) iscovered. Othr COM devices are not covered.1.1.1 Application. DoD, other government agencies, civil agencies,contractors, engineering data suppliers (see 6.4.3), and any other users arecautioned that all requirements in the previous issue have been rewritten, somehave
5、been renumbered, combined, or deleted (see 6.8 and 6.9), and new require-ments have been added. Requirements may be stratified throughout; so, it isnecessary to read the entire specification (i.e., text, tables, figures, textfootnotes, table footnotes. and fiqure footnotes). Stratification der)endsc

9、ent microfilming. If additional noncontractual information isdesired, several explanatory notes within Section 3 and Section 5 identify someof the associated publications.b. MIL-M-9868 is a specification within the DoD EDRS (formerly designatedEDMS) Standardization Area. Related information in other
10、 DoD standardizationareas and Federal Supply Classes (FSCS) should not be overlooked (e.g., 6750,6760, 8115, CMAN, DRPR, GDRQ, ILSS, IPSC, and PACK).c. MIL-M-9868 requirements are intended to promote, not inhibit,philosophies of Total Quality Management (TQNI)when a supplier (see 6.4.3) or anyother
11、user is tasked with implementing the requirements (see 3.4 and 4.2).d. MIL-M-9868 reflects the present Defense Management Review (DMR)cast-effective standardization efforts (see 6.2). One of the efforts is to useNon-Government Standards (NGSS) to the maximum extent when they are available andpractic
12、al. The development, coordination (consensus), and adoption of thereferenced NGSS (see 2.2) is a result of the Government-Industry Equal Partnerprocess.1.1.2 hlIL-Dcard designation. Throughout MIL-il-9S68,the term “NIL-D” isused when referring to aperture, camera, copy, and image cards. These cards
13、area series of unique military 80-column tabulating cards with a “D” size aperture(i.e., DD Form 1562, Dual Purpose Enqineerinq Document Card series). The “D”size aperture is a rectangular; hole esigned-for 35mm microfilm. Commercia”80-column tabulating cards (popularly referred to as aperture cards
14、) with ea C, D, E, or F size aperture are also available. However, the most common”used commercial tabulating card is the card with a “D” size aperture. Acommercial nontabulating A6 Aperture Card with either a C, D, E, or F sizeaperture is also available. The commercial A6 card size is metric (105mm
15、 w148mm length) but cards with a “D” size aperture are most commonly used.therYdth X1.1.3 Inch-pound desgnation. Even though the width of the raw stock is35mm, MIL-M-9868 is assigned an inch-pound designation. All functional microfilmdimensional requirements are inch-pound units. However, within the
16、 textualparagraphs, metric dimensions (i.e., mathematical equivalents) are shown inparentheses. It must be understood that these mathematical equivalents are onlya soft conversion of the inch-pound dimensional requirements.1.1.4 Acquisition Management Systems Control (MSC) designation. MIL-M-9868by
17、itself does not generate engineering data source documents. Therefore, anAMSC number is not applicable (see 6.3).1.2 Classification. General microfilm classifications (i.e., type andclass) are assigned in accordance with the films photographic characteristicsand functional usage. Within all classifi
18、cations, Kind N (Negative) or Kind P(Positive) film is available. During processing, a clear line negative-appearingimage is used with Kind N film and a opaque line positive-appearing image is usedwith Kind P film. For MIL-M-9868 purposes, generic expressions for the variousclassifications are shown
19、 in parenthesis. There are three general microfilmclassifications:20 Provided by IHSNot for ResaleNo reproduction or networking permitted without license from IHS-,-,-MIL-M-9868Eo a.

At the start and at the end of each roll, a 24-inch (609.60mm) minimumlength of film plus a 20-inch (508.00mm) minimum length of processed clear(no-image) film shall be required.

When viewing roll film, the imagesprinted information for camera film and each odd generation
33、 noncamera silverduplicate film will be right reading to the observer (i.e., the films emulsionlayer will be wound out); for each even generation noncamera silver duplicatefilm, it will be reverse reading (i.e., the films emulsion layer will be wound. in). When viewing a MIL-D image card (see 6.4.4d

The delivered microfilm shall be eitherprocessed 35mm Type I, Class 1 roll film or its individual frames mounted inunprocessed MIL-D aperture cards (see 6.4.4a) or it shall be processed MIL-Dcamera cards (35mm Type I, Class 1 film).

A Type IImicrofilm carrier (suspension-type pocket holder) in accordance with MIL-C-9877and Style 8 buildup in accordance
40、 with MIL-C-9949 may be specified in lieu of aType I microfilm carrier. (See 6.2c.)3.1.2.2 Destination point. Unless otherwise specified by the procuringactivity, the principal location for delivering engineering data microfilmimages is a primary DoD repository. A primary DoD repository is where the
41、official record copy of data (camera masters and noncamera silver duplicatemasters) are stored and, where copies of the master data are made anddistributed to the repository custoiners.MIL-HD!3K-331 provides addresses andidentifies the kind of engineering data stored at each primary DoD repository.(
