Aerospace series - Aluminium and magnesium alloy ingots and castings - Technical specification - Part 1: General requirements
This standard defines the general requirements for the manufacture, inspection and testing of aluminium and magnesium alloy ingots and castings.
Particular requirements applicable to ingots and castings are defined in EN 2076-2 and EN 2076-3 respectively.
Unless otherwise specified on the drawing, order or inspection schedule the reference to EN 2076 only defines one quality level which is quality level 3 in table 1 of EN 2076-3.

Overview
EN 2076-1:1989 is the CEN aerospace series technical specification that establishes the general requirements for the manufacture, inspection and testing of aluminium and magnesium alloy ingots and castings. It provides a baseline framework for suppliers, manufacturers and quality assurance teams working in the aerospace supply chain.
This Part 1 document addresses overall processes and control measures; particular requirements for ingots and castings are given separately in EN 2076-2 and EN 2076-3. Unless otherwise specified on drawings, orders or inspection schedules, a reference to EN 2076 defaults to quality level 3 as defined in table 1 of EN 2076-3.
Key Topics
- Scope and applicability: Defines which aluminium and magnesium alloy ingots and castings are covered under the aerospace series.
- Manufacture controls: Outlines expectations for consistent production practices, material handling and process documentation.
- Inspection and testing: Establishes that inspection and testing regimes are required to verify conformance to the general requirements.
- Quality level default: Clarifies the default quality level (quality level 3) when EN 2076 is cited without further detail.
- Traceability and documentation: Emphasises the need for traceability of heat/batch, inspection records and conformity documentation to support aerospace quality systems.
Applications
EN 2076-1:1989 is aimed at organizations and stakeholders that require standardized handling of aluminium and magnesium alloy ingots and castings for aerospace applications. Typical uses include:
- Procurement specifications for raw ingots and castings supplied to aerospace manufacturers
- Supplier quality assurance and audit requirements
- Inspection and acceptance criteria used by quality engineers and metallurgical inspectors
- Contract clauses and purchase orders referencing a recognized aerospace material standard
Benefits of applying EN 2076-1 include improved consistency in material quality, clearer supplier expectations, and enhanced traceability across the supply chain.
Related Standards
- EN 2076-2 - Particular requirements applicable to ingots (see EN 2076-2 for ingot-specific provisions)
- EN 2076-3 - Particular requirements applicable to castings (includes the table that defines quality level 3)
Note: EN 2076-1 is part of a multipart specification. Users should reference EN 2076-2 and EN 2076-3 for detailed technical requirements specific to ingots and castings respectively. For national adoptions or translations, consult the relevant national standards body (for example, SIST EN 2076-1:2001 as a national adoption).
