Hardness checks must include at a minimum surface hardness and core hardness. Hardness normally is determined by the standard Brinell (HB, 3000 kgload) and Rockwell "C" (150 kg- oad) procedures. Where part, design, necessity andlor process limitations prohibit use of these standard PS-1, Change AV, 2006-06-16, Page 5 Copyright DainerChesler Corporationloads, use of other scales and conversions to lighter loads in accordance with the recommended ASTM E> 18 and E-140 procedures are acceptable. Equipment used in the past to measure hardness includes. ‘machines using scales such as Rockwell, Tukon, Vickers, Knoop, Wilson Microfcial, etc. This does not preclude the use of newer machines or scales to determine the hardness equivalent to HRC as long as, the equipment manufacturer and user can demonstrate proper correlations to HRC. The equipment user ‘must have machines periodically maintained and calibrated. Hardnesses/hardness equivalent readings for the various heat treat codes are listed in Section 5.0 HEAT TREAT PROCESS CODING REQUIREMENTS - CROSS REFERENCES below. Routine surface and core hardness checks are not a substitute for checking microstructure nd do not satisfy the requirement to check microstructure noted in Section 3.7 below. 3.7 Microstructure *** ‘The normal quench and tempered steel! microstructure typically is to be prédominately tempered martensite. Retained austenite may also be present unless otherwise specified as an exception or as a ‘maximum on the print. Checking methods) must also be specified. Austempered steel parts shall have a bainitic microstructure, It must be noted that this standard is a genetic heat trest standard that cannot define what is acceptable or not for every part, stee! grade, hardenabilty and heat treat possibilty. If required, additional more detailed microstructure requirements or other requirements should be defined during development of the part and noted ether on the CATIA ModelEngineering Drawing/Data Sheet or in the Control Plan for the part. Decarburization (total andlor partial) or carbon enrichmenticarbon pickup may be detected by ‘metallographic evaluation. While a part surface hardness values may indicate a change in surface carbon, its not normally or necessarily a sensitive enough test to accurately detect many unacceptable changes in the surface carbon level and overall microstructure condition (ie., decarburization, carbon enrichment, excessive retained austenite, carbides, apparent grain size, etc). Microstructural quality for Chrysler Group work shall be checked according to the schedule listed below with the results recorded in a log or on the job order. The microstructural characteristics evaluated need to include base or core microstructure, surface structure, any decarburization or carbon pickup present, surface carbides (free or grain boundary), estimated percent retained austenite, etc. as required by the CATIA Model/Engineering Drawing/Data Sheet and specifications as appropriate for the heat treat process specified. The minimum rate of microstructure checking for Chrysler Group parts isto be as follows: = Continuous fumaces - a minimum of once a shift, or once per day if basically the same cycle and part loading is run for the entire day. ~ Alot processed in a batch furiace which requires several loads to complete - once per day minimum. ~ Alot processed in a batch furnace completed in one load - once for that load. ~ Fasteners heat treated in batch furnaces - each load processed. - Fasteners heat treated and induction tip hardened - once per lt (minimum of once a day). Routine surface of core hardness checks are not a substitute for checking microstructure and do not satisfy the microstructure checking requirement. The results obtained from the checks must be recorded ina log, on the order, with a photomicrograph, or on another preprinted form and maintained for future reference,” The results must be noted as pass/fail or ok/nat ok 3.8 Fumace Instrumentation, Controllers, Temperature Recorders, Service Thermocouples, and Calibration *** ‘Austenitizing and tempering furnace temperatures and generator temperatures shall be continuously strip charted or continuously data logged.

These documents must be up-to-date and reflect the processes Used, The item with the highest Risk Priority Number must be addressed with an action plan. Specific Chrysler Group parts may require a part specific Control Plan and Process FMEA. There must be a process specification for each Chrysler Group part, This may consist ofthe job order and work structions and include the appropriate Chrysler Group standards, specific heat treat parameters, including load rates, cycle times, temperatures, time, quench time and temperature, almosphere and carbon potential, gas flow settings where applicable, etc. 3.17 Heat Treat Standards/Specifications and Certifications Chrysler Group designedispecified/purchased andlor released parts sent out by the manufacturer/supplier andlor subcontracted to outside heat treaters (or purchased as finished parts andlor placed in an ‘assembly and reshipped to Chrysler) must be identified as Chrysler Group parts with the relevant Chrysler ‘Group pat identification and part number. The part manufacturer/supplier doing the part subcontracting ‘must notiy the heat treater/subeontractor of the appropriate Chrysler Group Engineering Standards for the part, including any and all applicable Chrysler Group Material (MS's) and Process Standards (PS's). The part manufacturer/supplier can do this by noting that the part is a Chrysler Group part, the part number ‘and including all appropriate Chrysler Group Engineering Standards and specifications on the purchase ‘order or shipping order to the heat treater/subcontractor, This also applies to in-house or captive heat ‘eaters whether or not at the samme location. Its recommended that, ifat all possible, the part ‘manufacturer/supplier provide a Chrysler Group Engineering Drawing/CATIA Mode! of the part and the associated data sheets detaling all the Chrysler Group Engineering Standards to the heat ‘reater/subcontractor. Copies ofthe latest appropriate Chrysler Group Engineering Standards may also need to be provided I the heat treater/subcontractor does not have the latest copies available internally. Part hardness ranges such as 42-52 HRC extracted from Chrysler Group parts/drawings and Engineering standards such as MS-2501, MS-389, or PS-1-0753 by the part manufacturer/supplier and provided fo the heat treaterisubcontractor without mentioning the fact that the partis a Chrysler Group part ‘and noting the appropriate Chrysler Group material, heat treat process andlor heat treat standards such ‘as MS-2501, MS-389 and PS-1-0T53 do not satisfy this requirement. it should be noted that the heat treat code Z and 00 as often found as in PS 1-0Z00 or other Chrysler Group heat treat standards means PS-1 with the Z and 00 meaning the details as shown on the body of the Engineering Drawing/CATIA. This specific heat treat data must be provided to the heat treater. A part ‘manufacturer!supplier redrawing the Chrysler Group part Engineering Drawing/CATIA Model and leaving offal ofthe Chrysler Group Engineering Standards and heat treat references also does not satisfy this requirement. The heal trealer/subcontractor can not necessarily meet Chrysler Group Engineering ‘Standards ifthe heat treater doesn't know the partis a Chrysler part and what the appropriate Chrysler Group Engineering Standards are. This requirement is not meant to preclude additional data such as the ‘actual heat chemistry, or SAE steel grade used by the part manufacturer/supplier (or the actual Chrysler Group hardness range, a restricted hardness range, case depth range, etc. required by the part ‘manufacturer/supplier) being provided to the heat treater/subcontractor.
