EN 2078:2001 - Overview
EN 2078:2001 (CEN) defines the manufacturing schedule, inspection schedule, and inspection and test report for EN aerospace metallic semi-finished products. It sets out the general principles, preparation and approval rules for these documents and must be used together with the level‑3 semi‑finished product definition documents referenced in EN 4258. The standard clarifies roles and responsibilities for manufacturers, purchasers (Design Authority), and Qualification Authorities in the context of aerospace quality assurance.
Key topics and requirements
Manufacturing schedule
- Mandatory for semi‑finished product qualification (see EN 3042).
- Prepared and owned by the manufacturer; may be drafted in collaboration with the purchaser on request.
- Describes all manufacturing stages, including inspections and tests, from raw material acquisition to storage/delivery.
- Approved under the manufacturer’s internal quality procedures as required by EN 2000; purchaser approval may be required when collaboratively prepared or when sealed.
- Significant changes that affect product quality require purchaser written approval and notification to the Qualification Authority.
Inspection schedule
- Typically used where EN aerospace standards cannot fully specify characteristics (notably forgings and castings).
- Prepared and owned by the purchaser; implemented by the manufacturer.
- Specifies additional inspection/test requirements beyond applicable EN standards and links to the product drawing.
- Approved via the purchaser’s quality assurance procedures (EN 2000).
Inspection and test report
- A report of all inspection and testing carried out in accordance with the applicable EN standard and any purchaser requirements.
- Prepared by the manufacturer and supplied with each semi‑finished product delivery.
- Supports the inspection document required on the order (see EN 10204).
- Approved under the manufacturer’s internal QA per EN 2000.
Practical applications
- Ensures consistent documentation and traceability for aerospace metallic semi‑finished products used in aircraft and space systems.
- Commonly applied to forgings, castings and other semi‑finished metallic parts where standard product parameters need augmentation by bespoke inspection or manufacturing controls.
- Used during product qualification, procurement, manufacturing audits, and supplier approvals in aerospace supply chains.
Who should use EN 2078:2001
- Aerospace manufacturers (preparing manufacturing schedules and inspection/test reports)
- Purchasers and Design Authorities (preparing inspection schedules and approving changes)
- Quality and compliance teams (ensuring approval processes follow EN 2000)
- Qualification Authorities (monitoring changes and recording qualifications)
