EN 4700-006:2010 (E) 7 the requirements for each line of which are detailed in Tables 2 and 3 of this technical specification. Table 2 related to lines 1 to 29 (inclusive) of the material standard and Table 3 relates to lines 30 onwards in which the subline format is also used. If a particular test is needed but not shown in a specific line in Tables 2 and 3, the requirement shall be specified on the order, drawing, inspection schedule or material standard. 6.2 Qualification requirements See line 100 in Table 3 of this technical specification. Qualification shall normally comprise assessment of pre-production forgings. See Table 2, section 4.2. 6.3 Re-qualification requirements Re-qualification of serial production forgings may be required, in the following cases:  modification of the drawing;  use of forging stock from a different source;  modifications to the forging stock form and/or manufacturer route;  modifications to an existing die;  use of a new (replacement) die;  modifications to the forging manufacturing route;  when a significant time interval (usually several years) had elapsed between forging campaigns for a specific part number;  when required by the purchaser for any other reason. Re-qualification testing requirements, especially location of test pieces, shall be identical to those used for the initial qualification of the pre-production forgings unless otherwise specified on the order, drawing or inspection schedule. 6.4 Release requirements Release testing shall be the responsibility of the manufacturer. The sampling procedure for release testing shall be one of the following, as specified on the order, drawing or inspection schedule. Where no procedure is specified, procedure A shall be used: SIST EN 4700-006:2011



EN 4700-006:2010 (E) 8  Procedure A: Separate forged test samples shall be procedure produced from the same batch of forging stock as that used to make the serial production forgings. Procedure A may be used alone unless denoted AX on the drawing, order or inspection schedule in which case it shall be applied only in conjunction with procedure X (See 6.5).  Procedure B: Separate forged heat treatment control test samples shall be prepared which conform to the same material standard as the production forgings, but from a different batch of forging stock. Procedure B shall only be used when full heat treatment of the serial production forgings is carried out by the manufacturer and only in conjunction with procedure X (See 6.5).  Procedure C: Integral test samples shall be removed from each forgings. The order, drawing of inspection schedule shall specify how many test samples shall be tested per batch. Procedure C may be used alone unless denoted CX on the drawing, order or inspection schedule in which case it shall be applied only in conjunction with procedure X (See 6.5).  Procedure D: Test samples shall be machined from forging(s) selected from each production batch and at locations specified on the order, drawing or inspection schedule. When required, the manufactured shall inform the purchaser of the planned dates for extraction of samples and release testing in order that these operations may be witnessed. 6.5 Process control testing (Procedure X) Procedure X is process control procedure consisting of periodic “cut-up” testing to ensure that the serial production forgings continued to conform to the specified requirements. If procedure X is invoked by the order, drawing or inspection/manufacturing schedule and/or if procedures B, AX or CX are used for release tests (see 6.4), forgings shall be selected from series production at the frequency stated therein. It is recommended that the maximum number of forgings manufactured between repeat “cut-up” testing conforming to procedure X shall be as stated in the following Table 1: Table 1 Mass of forging (kg) Number of forgings ≤ 1 ≤ 2 000 1 < mass ≤ 2 ≤ 1 000 2 < mass ≤ 5 ≤ 400 5 < mass ≤ 25 ≤ 200 > 25 As stated on the order, drawing, inspection schedule
The testing requirements, including the location, type and size of test pieces shall be identical to those used for qualification of the pre-production. 6.6 Retests Retests shall be required if the specified acceptance criteria are not fully met during qualification testing on pre-production forgings, process control testing (procedure X) or batch release testing. If the test product or test piece preparation is faulty, testing shall be re-applied at the original frequency after rectification of the original cause of failure. At least one of the retests shall be from forgings from which the unsatisfactory result was obtained (unless already rejected by the manufacturer after suitable identification of the cause of failure). It insufficient material remains, the purchaser shall advise as to how to proceed. SIST EN 4700-006:2011



EN 4700-006:2010 (E) 9 If all retest results fulfil the specified acceptance criteria, the pre-production forging qualification/process control test (procedure X) shall be deemed satisfactory or the batch shall be accepted, as appropriate. If one or more retest results fail to fulfil the specified acceptance criteria, the following actions shall be taken: a) For qualification testing of pre-production forgings, advice shall be sought from the purchaser as to whether the retest results are acceptable for that part of the forging. If so, this shall be denoted by a note on the drawing, together with values which are acceptable for that location. Alternatively, if it is essential that the specified acceptance criteria are achieved at all locations, the purchaser may request modifications to be made to the manufacturer route. b) For process control testing (procedure X), the tests shall be repeated on a second forging taken as close as possible to the above in the production sequence and/or and extensive review shall be made of the manufacturing records of forgings made since the previous control tests. Serial production of the forging in question (and others if appropriate/deemed necessary) shall not continue until the cause of the unsatisfactory values has been ascertained and rectified). c) For batch release testing, the batch shall be either:  rejected, or  partially of fully re-heat treated if it is believed that re-heat treatment can rectify the cause of the failure and then test as a completely new batch from which the conforming products shall be accepted. The re-heat treatment shall be stated on the test and inspection report. No products or test sample shall be re-heat treated more than once. 6.7 Special tests Special tests and/or inspections may be required by the purchaser. In such cases, the nature of the test, method, frequency and technical requirements shall be specified on the order, drawing or inspection schedule and shall be mutually agreed by the manufacturer and purchaser. 6.8 Capability clause The capability clause normally applies only to forgings of suitable size and configuration during process control testing (procedure X) and/or batch release testing when invoking procedure D. The number of batches after which sufficient statistical evidence is deemed to justify cessation of testing for a particular property (or reduced frequency of testing) shall be mutually agreed between the manufacturer and purchaser. However, this is no way reduces, the obligations of the manufacturer to fulfil the requirements. If subsequent testing indicates that the product does not comply with the requirements, the batch shall be rejected. 6.9 Statistical process control Reduction in the extent of release testing, other than that defined in 6.7 above may be negotiated with the purchaser on the basis of appropriate statistical process control and/or statistical data.

The samples taken for analysis shall be representative of the melt. The method of analysis shall be at the option of the manufacturer, but in cases of dispute, the reference method set out in the relevant EN or ISO standard shall be used. If no EN or ISO standard exists, a fundamental and agreed method of chemical analysis calibrated against accepted reference standards shall be used. In the case of remelted material, samples shall be normaly taken from the top of each ingot or ingot product. a) Vacuum arc remelted (VAR) ingots: the top of each ingot or ingot product. b) Electroflux or Electroslag remelted (ESR) ingots: the top and bottom ends of each ingot or ingot product. An analysis shall be made of each sample and certificates of analysis shall be supplied to the purchaser. The elements to be determined shall be as required by the material specification or as agreed between the manufacturer and the purchaser. Elements not quoted in the material standard shall not be intentionally added to the alloy without the agreement of the purchaser, except for the purpose of finishing the heat (e.g. addition of deoxidant); reasonable precautions shall be taken to prevent their inclusion during manufacture. The purchaser, in agreement with the manufacturer, may set a limit to the amount of one or more such elements and may require the amount of such elements to be stated in the certificate of analysis. The specified ranges of chemical composition are based on cast analyses. Any subsequent analytical checks shall take into consideration the heterogeneity normal to the alloy. Additionally for remelted products, the samples shall be representative for the remelted ingot, taking into account any macro segregation. The test samples used for chemical analysis shall be representative of the product and shall be taken from location corresponding to top and bottom of each ingot produced after the final melting stage. The method of chemical analysis shall be at the discretion of the manufacturer unless otherwise stated in the material standard or order. In cases of dispute, the method of chemical analysis shall be agreed between the manufacturer and purchaser preferably using existing chemical analysis standards. The measured chemical composition shall be stated on the certificate of conformance. a) 1 per cast in the case of air melted or vacuum induction melted product b) 1 per VAR or 2 ESR ingot representing top and bottom positions a) 1 per cast in the case of air melted or vacuum induction melted product b) 1 per VAR or ESR ingot continued SIST EN 4700-006:2011

If a specification permits alternative processes, the manufacturer shall decide which of them shall be used unless the purchaser states a particular preference on his order. In all instances, the process by which the alloy was made shall be indicated on the release note. 2 Consumable electrode remelted material 2.1 Except as provided in 2.3 or 2.4 at no time during remelting shall material of any other composition or type be introduced into the melting chamber, i.e. starter material and electrode stub-ends shall be of the same composition as the material being remelted. 2.2 Whenever possible and except as provided in 2.3, weld material used to join electrodes together and to join the electrode to the stub-end shall be of the same composition as the material being remelted. If such weld material is not obtainable, material of a similar composition to, or compatible with, the material being remelted may be used at the discretion of the manufacturer, unless the purchaser indicates that his prior agreement is required. 2.3 Alternatively to 2.1 and 2.2, for electroflux and vacuum arc remelting, the stub and any weld material may be different from that being remelted, provided that the remelted material is not contaminated with material from the stub-ends or weld and that, for vacuum arc remelting, the stub welding takes place outside the furnace. Remelting shall be terminated not less than 20 mm from the electrode/stub interface and, after completion of the remelting cycle, the electrode/stub interface shall be examined to verify that the stub and weld are intact. 2.4 For electroflux melting, material compatible with the composition of that being remelted shall be permitted to provide electrical contact to the furnace base plate, provided that the chemical composition of the melt is maintained.
