COMPONENT CLASSIFICATIONS. 5.1 Each new and revised CNH drawing has a component classification code as established through the design review process. The classification codes are CNHO, CNH1, and CNH, 6.1.1. The codes appear in the component classification box located in the drawing title block, or immediately above/adjacent to it See Figure 1 for an example of the style and placement of classification codes. 5.1.2 Assemblies will be considered CNHO, even if the drewing is not marked, unless they contain significant characteristics resulting from the assembly process. 5.2 CNHO—NORMAL COMPONENT A normal component designation signifies that the par¥assembly has standard functionality and historically has not caused any particular problems. Components with this classification cannot have any significant characteristics. ISIR's for CNHO parts are approved by CNH Quality Assurance. 5.3 CNH1—IMPORTANT COMPONENT ‘An important component classification signifies that the parvassembly is of average complexity and is associated with some risk of partiprocess instability or failure. Components classified as CNHI + Have one or more important characteristics + SPC may be specified by the Contractual Controi Pian ‘+ Externally sourced parts are sourced to SQA, Approved Suppliers ‘+ Ate subjected to the design review process involving the manufacturer + Require the development of a Contractual Control Plan (see Figure 2 for a sample ‘Control Pian} ‘* Purchased parts are approved for production by CNH SQA and require CNH Engineering ‘approval when so stated on the drawing. ‘+ Internal manufactured parts ere epproved by CNH QA and require CNH Engineering approval when so stated on the drawing, * Do net have any critical characteristics 54 — CNH2—Critical Component A critical component classification signifies that this partfassembly is usually very complex and Performs critical and complex functions, failure ‘of which would result in serious consequences for the entire vehicle and serious operator ‘concern. Components classified as CNH2: ‘+ Have one or more critical characteristios ‘+ Externally sourced parts are to be sourced to Preferred Suppliers * Are subjected to the design review process: involving the manufacturer © SPC may be specified by the Contractual Control Plan + Recuire the development of a Contractual Control Pian (see Figure 2} + ISIR’s for purchased parts are approved for production by CNH SQA at the supplier site, and also approved by CNH Engineering, when so stated on the drawing, ‘+ _ISIR’s for intemally manufactured parts are approved for production’ by CNH QA and also approved by CNH Engineering, when so stated on the drawing, * Are traceable in accordance with standards or the methods specified on the drawing (see 2.2.4) + If the component is @ supplier designed part (black box), CNH Engineering will request to analyze and approve the supplier's Design FMEA and may decide to create an installation FMEA, SIGNIFICANT CHARACTERISTICS SPECIFICATION PACE ca NOUR 20r9 | 86620212 jo 8Engineering Specifications [ exseoor | 6. CHARACTERISTICS 6.1 NORMAL CHARACTERISTIC All characteristics and/or dimensions on an engineering drawing or in a technical specification that are not marked as significant are considered to be normal characteristics and must match the _ requirements/tolerances identified on drawings and/or technical specifications. 62 SIGNIFICANT CHARACTERISTICS. Significant characteristics are those characteristics that have been identified by CNH for special attention due to the potential impact they might have on the performance, reliability manufacturablity and/or regulatory compliance of a component, assembly or entire machine. ‘These characteristics are designated “important” and “ertical Important Characteristic - Noncompiiance of an important characteristic may cause a real Possibility of componentisystem functionality loss or failure, but the machine is operable. Important characteristics: * Ate identified with a single quality flag (P ) (see Figure 1) * Can be directly measurable or can be measured by destructive or non-destructive testing + SPC may be specified via a control plan, Control Plan achievements, all ISIR and current production documentation must be kept on file and retrievable for CNH review upon request. 62.2 Critical Characteristic - Noncompliance of a critical characteristic ‘may cause functionality loss or failure making the machine inoperable or out of compliance with regulations. Critical characteristics: + Are identified with a double quality flag (8). (620 Figure 1) Are directly measurable Must be controlled in such a manner as to center the process mean between the specification limits and to continuously reduce variability around the mean + Require 2 minimum Cy of 1.33 (4 sigma). 100% inspection is required until the tninimum Cyx is attained (this is intended to be a transitory state only). ‘The drawing title block will record the number of, critical characteristics and the total number of, SCs Control plan achievements, all ISIR and current production Statistical Process Control (SPC) documentation must be kept on file and retrievable for CNH review upon request. 6.3 PREVIOUSLY IDENTIFIED SIGNIFICANT CHARACTERISTICS 6.3.4. Previous New Holland Designation The previous New Holland standard on significant characteristics identified all such Characteristics with a single quality flag. In accordance with this standard, these should be treated as single quality ‘flags signifying important characteristics. 6.3.2. Previous Case Designation 6.3.2.1 The previous Case standard on significant characteristics identified some characteristics as "major using the symbol In acoordance with this standard, these Pea oe esten as single quality flags signifying important characteristics. 63.22The previous Case standard on significant characteristics identified some characteristics as “critical” using the symbol In accordance with this standard, these should be treated as double quality flags signifying critical characteristics.
