Aug 29 2001) 16:49 P.OL/08 | quarry INSPECTION AND QUALITY ASSURANCE FOR ASME/ANSI HIGH-VOLUME MACHINE ASSEMBLY FASTENERS 1907 fF ioe) Semen IFI NOTES: 1. ASME/ANS| 818.18.2M is a standard developed through the proce- dures of The American Society of Mechanical Engineers. B18.18.2M is under the jurisdiction of ASME Standards Committee B18 and is the direct responsibility of its Subcommittee 18. 2. B18.18.2M is the second plan of seven, and outlines a fastener in- spection plan which emphasizes final inspection of the fastener lot by the manufacturer prior to its shipment to the purchaser. 3. B18.18.2M was first approved in 1982 for metric series fasteners. In 1987 it was reissued for use with inch and metric fasteners. In 1993, it was reaffirmed and a supplement was issued in 1994. 4. ASME/ANSI B18.18.2M-1987 (R 1993) is reprinted with the permis- sion of its publisher, The American Society of Mechanical Engineers, Three Park Avenue, New York, NY 10016-5990, U.S.A. 1. GENERAL INFORMATION 1.1. Basic Plan Structure This standard outlines a Quality Assur- ance Plan for internally and extemally threaded fasteners and accessories or associated parts. Provisions are included for sampling plans, in- spection frequencies, control procedures, and record keeping. Included in this plan are fasteners such as those where a more detailed inspection would enhance mass assembly operation. The qual- ity assurance plan for these fasteners relies pri- marily on increased final inspection rather than on documented in-process control. This standard will be used in conjunc- tion with other accepted standards for product, testing, gaging, and material and, therefore, those provisions as well as packaging are not included herein, 1.2 Inspection Levels ‘The substantial difference in importance to the user of various characteristics and the dissimilar degrees of control in manufacture make impractical the subjecting of all cherac- teristics to the same degree of inspection Therefore, three inspection levels have been provided. Any additional characteristics deemed applicable by the user that do not appear in the plan shall be explicitly designated by the user, preferably on engineering drawings and related specifications by the appropriate code letter at the time of ordering (see Appendix Il), To assist in arriving at the most appropriate inspection level, the Decision Table included in Appendix | is recommended for guidance (IFI Note: Appendix | is the same as Appen- dix | of B18.18.1M, page L-9.)

INSPECTION AND QUALITY ASSURANCE FOR = 1987 (R 1993) HIGH-VOLUME MACHINE ASSEMBLY FASTENERS be | 1.3 Lot Sizes When the acceptance number for sam- pling by attributes is fixed, variation in sample size results in variation of acceptable quality Therefore, to avoid this inconsistency, fixed sample sizes are applied for the greatest range Of lot size. Lot sizes are restricted to a maxi- mum of 250,000 pieces. 1.4 Measuring and Testing Equipment All measuring instruments, gages, and testing equipment used to inspect incoming materials and parts in process and in final in- spection shall be calibrated at planned intervals to National Bureau of Standards (NBS) or other equivalent National Standards where applicable. ‘The dates of calibration and fixture checks shal be recorded. Inspection records shall be kept for a minimum of one year. 1.5 Basic Plan Outline The basic plan outline as shown in Table 1, page L-3, is included to enhance understand- ing and use. 2, FASTENERS FOR HIGH-VOLUME MACHINE ASSEMBLY APPLICATIONS 2.1 Scope This section is an Acceptance Sampling Plan for high-volume machine assembly fasten- ets, accessories, and associated parts. It es- tablishes specific inspection functions that must be performed on the finished product with the objective of ensuring that the accepted product Conforms to all the requitements of engineering drawings, related standards, and/or specifica. tions, "Now National Institute of Slandards and Technology (NIST). This plan does not necessitate in-pro- cess control; however, the producer, at his dis- cretion, may apply in-process control. Adher- ence to the requirements of this plan does not release the contractor from the responsibility of exercising due care in the production of all parts to the requirements established for all charac- teristics shown on engineering drawings and related specifications. (IF Note: Appendix Ill suggests suitable in- process controls for surface finishing opera- tions.) 2.2 Applicable Characteristics Applicable characteristics include all characteristics of a part that are described by engineering drawings and related specifications, Three levels of inspection — A, B, and C — are provided in the plan. Altemate levels may be designated by the user if required. Refer to the Decision Table in Appendix |, page L-9, to es- tablish alternate levels as required. Any addi- tional characteristic(s) deemed applicable by the user and not appearing in the general plan, or characteristics for which the user requires an inspection level other than that designated in the plan, must be explicitly requested by the user and shown on drawings or specifications by the appropriate code fetter at the time of ordering (see Appendix iI) 2.3 Lot Definition A jotis a quantity of product of one part number made by the same production process and subsequently submitted for final inspect atone time. Maximum lot size traceable to final inspection shall be no larger than 250,000 pieces, For lot sizes equal to or less than 5.000 pieces, sample size is reduced to maintain in- spection at a practical level. ton Aug 29 2001 16:50 P.05/08 QUALITY INSPECTION AND QUALI ITY ASSURANCE FOR ASME/ANS!
