2、or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.A superscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This specification covers the magnetic particle exami-nation of forged conti
3、nuous grain flow (CGF) crankshaftsintended for medium speed diesel engines.1.2 For the purpose of magnetic particle indication assess-ment, the crankshaft is divided into four zones of decreasingoperational stress. Acceptance criteria have been set for eachzone.1.3 The engines to which these cranksh
