A brief description of both is provided to assist the purchaser in the application of this guide. The detection system: relies on inspection as the primary means of controlling the quality of furnished material. Methods include in-process and final inspection. In-process inspection is typically performed by the individual performing the process and generally includes a first-piece inspection by someone other than the operator. Quality-control inspection may perform audit inspections on the process output during the course of the production run. fn addition, a final inspeetion is performed by ‘quality control inspectors according to a prescribed sample plan. The other sample plans utilize 2er0 defects as their acceptance criteria ‘The prevention systemn uses advanced quality planning in addition to many of the techniques used in the detection system. Quality planning incorporates a systems approach to quality control that focuses on defect prevention and continual improvement, In addition, Statistical Process Control (SPC) is usually applied to control the process, thereby reducing the vatiability of the output ‘The ISO 9000 and/or the ANSV/ASQC Q9000 quality system standards are models that may be used in establishing a prevention-based quality systems. 1, Scope 1.1 This guide provides sampling methods for determining how many fasteners fo include in 2 random sample in order 10 determine the acceptability of a given lot of fasteners. 1.2 This guide is for mechanical properties, physical prop- erties, coating requirements, and other quality requirements specified in the standards of ASTM Committee F-16, Dimen- sional and thread eriteria sampling plans are the responsibility of ASME Committee B18, Therefore, unless otherwise speci fied in this guide, dimensional and thread fit sampling shal! be in accordance with ANSVASME B18.18.3M, 13 This guide provides for two sampling plans: one desig- nated the “detection process,” as deseribed in 3.1.3, and one designated the “prevention process,” as described in 3.1.8 2.

Definitions 3.1.1 assembly lor—an assembly lot may consist of a combination of ciferent products. As long as the products that make up the assembly are in accordance with 3.1.6, the quantity of assemblies determine the sample size. Example: ten assemblies consisting of a boll, nut, and @ washer would have ‘lot size often ifthe bolts, nus, and washers meet the criteria ‘f 3.1.6, However, if any of the components in the assembly are notin accordance with 3.1.6 then the ten assemblies will have to be separated int lots that meet all the requirements of 3.16. 3.12 common cause—common cavse variation affets all the individual values of the process output being studied. In control chart analysis it appears as part ofthe random process variation 3.1.3 detection pracess—a pastoriented stategy of quality ceomrol that attem the nonconfoming product after it has been produced, and then to separate it from the conforming product. 3.14 inprocess sampling inspection—a random sample of product drawn from prescribed points ofthe processing stream {usually characteristic sensitive) and performing specific ine spections and tests determine conformance of the product at that point of the processing stream. 3.15 inspection—process of measuring, examining, testing, gaging, oF using other procedures to ascertain the quality oF state of, detect errors or defects in, or otherwise appraise materials, products, services, systems, or environments t0 a preestablished standard 3.1.6 lot—a quantity of product of one part number that has been processed essentially under the same conditions from the same heat treatment lot and produced rom one mill heat of ‘material and submitted for inspection at one time. 3.17 lot sampling inspection—a random sample drawn from a lot and performing specified inspections and tests 10 determine the acceptability of the lot 3.18 prevention process—a Tuture-oriented strategy that, through analysis and action toward comecting the process itsli enriches quality through continuous improvement sctiv- ties. 3.19 process flow—the current or anticipated sequential process steps required to produce a fastener 3.1.10 random sampling—when every fastener in the Tot thas an equal and independent chance of being chosen as the sample. The sample may be returned to the loc if it has not been altered of destroyed during the inspection/est upon completion of sampling. 3.111 special cause—special cause variation is intermit- tent, unpredictable and unstable, In control chat analysis, itis signaled by a point beyond the control Himis, @ un, or some ther nonrandom pattern of points within the control limits. 3.1.12 statistical contro!—exisis when all special causes of F 1470 variation have been eliminated from a process and only 3.1.13 test—an element of inspection that generaily denotes the determination by technical means of the properties or clements of supplies, oF components thereof and involves the application of established scientific principles and procedures 4. Significance and Use 4.1 Sampling shall be selected in a random manner, ensur- ing that any unit inthe tot has an equal chance of being chosen. ‘Sampling should not be localized by selections being taken from the top of a container or from only one container of ‘multicontainer lots 4.2 The purchaser should be aware of the supplier's quality assurance system. This can be accomplished by auditing the supplier's quality system, if qualified auditors are available, or by third-party assessment certification, such as provided by ASME’s Fastener Accreditation Program (FAP), QS 9000, or 180 9000, 5. Ordering Information 5.1 The purchaser shall specify at che time of order inquiry, the specification number, the issue date and the sampling plan (Geteotion process or prevention process) required from the supplier. 5.2 Guidelines for sampling plan selection are provided in Section 6, 6, Selection of Sampling Plans 6.1 Facept as specified in 6.2, the detection process sam- pling level in accordance with Table | shall be applied. 6.2 If the purchaser knows through documented evidence ‘that his supplier conforms with ASMEJANSI B18.18.3M, ANSI ASQC Q9000, Q9001, Q9002, or Q9003, or ISO 9000, ‘9001, 9002, oF 9003, the purchaser may specify the prevention process in accordance with Table 2 7. Acceptance Criteria 7.1 The acceptance criteria for Table 3 isto aocept the lot if zero nonconforming parts are detected, and reject the lot if at Jeast one nonconforming part is detected. 8. Disposition of Nonconforming Lots 8.1 Supplier's Options—The supplicr has the following ‘options in dispositioning nonconforming lots R.LL1 Lots may be scrapped. 8.1.2 Lots may be 100% sorted and all nonconforming parts removed, 8.1.3 Lots may be reworked or reprocessed to correct the nonconforming characteristic(s), if permitted by specification See 833. 8.1.4 Lots may be “used-as-is” providing the purchaser is informed of the rejectable items and written approval is, ‘obtained. This disposition shall be documented with each shipment, including appropriate signatures und dates authoriz- ing the release Nore 1—Cauon should be exercised when applying she option to "use-as-is" Inthe inerest of safety and quality, all "uses" conditions should have no effect om the fasteners intended application or ond useib F 1470 ‘TABLE 1 Sampling Lovel forthe Detection Process Nore I—Legend: WA—Where Applicable NASNot Applicable Desorption of Contot nacre ‘nna Tied ety Te seo Ler ym ay Teale Nannon weve ioson Co = wa wa WR wa ‘ea ener at S me we "a ma Seve sym) & me wi wa x Soe neha (ot) 3 ms wa ma Sa Se, boa ak oe) é nt we wa na Eres srg) é Na wa ma na Gutn recpasion é ms a wa wm ac copceatrsson é wm we we wa Shenae I wm wa va wa Carpet vate ret nay x mM we we wa Soro pect é tm x ma ma Sit fox & wm we ma ma Conan_Hastin?epcnan é me we we m Enersor aise S we we we ta Snnarae zl tm we we a fares? = we we we ww Berd nd (kee 8 ne me we ma ray 5 wa wa wn Py Fyn embriteort S wa ta a vin one & ma a MA ne CiBtcaton 5 a ‘wa wa wm Magra eesti 5 ‘ia wa ta wa Posaea = a wa va wn Peeping res (gh x wm wa wa wa Pras danteaten mag” 7 wn wa we wa Proc odors 3 wa wa m ™ Feta of wea Saciwd speck é ma wm oy ma Bord it ° ma mM wa Pn man: et 5 ma wm we ne Feurord cect é we by we we Sate ® we mm ne we Sina sgh é me m na mi Beas corsoen 5 ws wm ma wa Sues dr 5 ve wa wa wa Sanco 5 ia we wa va Senate seo Fl se" é me wa wm ma Tera serena scien é ma wm wa ma Tor resaeg) s oy wn na ma Tre rsa Seog) é wn wm w ma Yio cto oe é we w us Yost shenghhiacared spec é ta wa Me mi 7 Quanty of samples in Table 5, Sango Sem 2 carted copy che mats chemical or product ana}ysis shal be furished with aach sein lot ae the shiping lot shal ave documentation soveng tracoabiy tothe chamal analysis roe tt purchasr of the raw mata used to maradacite) stl vey tal he Matta se raberal spect on the purchase odo fw set producer sal provide he see making practice (couse one gan en ther cerifeaon The te! producer may epecy grain sie at thor oon, © Surace of core, bon, ae apptabla « Aipackaging reqlraments shat be i conforrance wih te applcabe packaging standard sta napetion fr contoraree. © Centwous morta a aa pay pacormance im acordance wih Ws racommendaton of able B in Append 1 of ASMEZANSIB18.18.2M constiules compliance va the reauements ea pray oan outed ns abe * aage angio sist a8 appa "Prevaling teu fet neice trea sa, ll specie ore equrament, ar rtenton ook Tau, when apo, 8.2 Purchaser's Options —The purchaser has the following ceptions in dispositioning nonconforming lots: 8.2.1 Lots may be rejected and returned to the supplier. 8.2.2 Lots may be accepted.
