11、 definitions shall apply: 2.2.1 CONTRACTOR Any individual, company, partnership, association, or corporation holding a contract or letter of intent to supply items for which this standard is specified. 2.2.2 IDENTIFICATION Any marking applied to an item or its package for the purpose of engineering,

12、 manufacturing, or inspection control. Examples are: a. Item number b. Vendor number c. Manufacturers identification d. Inspection symbols 2.2.2.1 MANUFACTURERS IDENTIFICATION The actual manufacturers name, registered trademark, or the identification symbol listed in MIL-HDBK-57, or the CAGE code id

13、entification established in Cataloging Handbooks H4/H8, or as otherwise specified. 2.2.3 ITEM An article, used in this standard to relate to a part, assembly, or equipment. 2.2.4 PACKAGE The smallest enclosure into which an item(s) is placed for protection during storage or shipment. 2.2.5 PERMANENT

14、 MARKING Marking which will ensure identification during the normal service life of the item. Methods of permanent marking are listed in 4.1. SAE INTERNATIONAL AS478P Page 3 of 15 2.2.6 TEMPORARY MARKING Marking which will ensure identification during ordinary handling and storage of items prior to

15、assembly and use. Under certain service conditions these markings may exhibit the characteristics of permanent markings. Temporary marking methods are listed in 4.2. 2.2.7 OPTICAL CHARACTER RECOGNITION An automatic data entry system that utilizes predefined human readable shaped alphanumeric charact

16、er fonts which can be read by automatic scanning equipment. 3. GENERAL REQUIREMENTS Items shall be marked in accordance with this standard unless otherwise specified on the item drawing. The method of marking shall be designated as shown in 6.1. 3.1 Marking Location Location of marking on items shal

17、l be in accordance with the following as applicable: 3.1.1 General The symbol as shown in Figure 1, or a local note, indicates general location for marking. Figure 1 - Symbol for general location for marking 3.1.2 Pad The symbol as shown in Figure 2, or a local note, indicates pad location for marki

18、ng. Figure 2 - Symbol for pad location for marking 3.1.3 Integral The symbol as shown in Figure 3, or a local note, indicates pad location for integral marking (cast, forged, or molded). Figure 3 - Symbol for location for integral marking (cast, forged, or molded) 3.1.4 Specific The symbol as shown

19、in Figure 4, or a local note, indicates a specified area within which markings must be confined. Figure 4 - Symbol for specified area within which markings must be confined SAE INTERNATIONAL AS478P Page 4 of 15 3.1.5 Multiple Where two or more locations for marking are specified, markings shall be g

20、rouped so that as few of the locations as practicable are used. 3.2 Permanent Markings Permanent markings are permitted on finished items only when specified on the engineering drawing from which the item is manufactured. 3.2.1 Items which require more than one identification number, such as item nu

21、mber, serial number, etc., shall have each number on a separate line; or consecutive identification numbers on the same line shall be separated by no less than two spaces. The separation or division of the digits of an identification number will not be objectionable provided the digits are in sequen

22、ce and cannot be misread. 3.2.2 Permanent marking for the general categories of items shall normally be between 0.060 and 0.160 inch (1.5 and 4 mm) in height. In special cases when governed by size or configuration, 0.016 inch (0.4 mm) minimum or 0.250 inch (6.35 mm) maximum height is permissible, o

23、r as otherwise specified in this standard or on the item drawing. When integral marking is used, the height should not exceed 0.500 inch (12.7 mm) nominal character size. 3.2.3 Permanent marking is not recommended on contacting surfaces, nor on surfaces which are in motion with respect to the mating

24、 surface during operation of the items. However, when permanent markings must be placed on such surfaces, all raised metal and burrs shall be removed in accordance with the requirements given on the item drawing. 3.2.4 Permanent markings shall not be applied on surfaces which have been chemically pr

25、ocessed, painted, or plated unless the marking will be legible and the minimum requirements of the surface treatment process is maintained or restored. 3.2.5 Permanent markings shall not be nearer than 0.031 inch (0.78 mm) to any corner, fillet, or edge unless specifically designated. Where a specif

26、ic marking location, as designated and dimensioned, does not provide enough area for 0.031 inch (0.78 mm) distance to any edge, corner, or fillet, the markings shall be centered upon the area without breaking over an edge or encroaching into corners or fillets. When parts are machined from previousl

27、y marked hexagon bar stock, the 0.031 inch (0.78 mm) edge restriction is waived, provided the marking is legible. 3.2.6 Precautions Stress concentrations resulting from improper applications of marking methods may cause item distortion or failure. Marking methods, such as methods 4 or 6 in Table 1,

28、may produce secondary effects which are detrimental to item reliability and must be properly evaluated to the item design. Items distorted or otherwise damaged by marking shall be subject to rejection. Permanent markings not in compliance with the limits given in this standard may be the basis for r

29、ejection of the items by the purchaser. 3.2.7 Legibility Identification marking shall be legible and make full use of the available marking area. Characters shall be block form capital letters and Arabic numerals without serifs, such as “Gothic“ or “Futura.“ Lower case letters may be used when requi

30、red for metric unit symbols. Other characters shall be of similar appearance. Condensed letters and smeared letters shall be cause for rejection. Templates for the electrochemical process may be produced by a conventional typewriter provided legibility is maintained. Processes performed after markin

31、g which may reduce legibility (such as vapor or grit blasting, tumbling, etching, etc.) shall be controlled to prevent loss of legibility. Normally all characters shall be legible without magnification. However, where space or surface condition limits the size of characters that may be used, legibil

32、ity with 3X magnification maximum is permissible when authorized. 3.2.8 Optical Character Recognition (OCR) Marking requirements for the standard OCR-A character set are specified in ANSI INCITS 17. The OCR-A marking characters height, width, spacing and positioning requirements are specified in Tab

33、le 2. See 6.1.1 for an example of designating OCR font marking method. SAE INTERNATIONAL AS478P Page 5 of 15 4. MARKING METHODS 4.1 Permanent Markings Permanent markings shall not affect the function or serviceability of the item. 4.1.1 Integral Characters are produced by casting, forging, or moldin

34、g into or onto the item. 4.1.2 Metal Stamp Characters are produced by forcible displacement of material. 4.1.2.1 Hammer Characters are produced individually or in groups by impact force applied mechanically or by hand. 4.1.2.2 Press Characters are produced individually or in groups with a controlled

35、 force applied without impact. 4.1.2.3 Roll Characters are produced by a rotating motion of either the item or the tool, or both, when in contact with each other under a controlled force. 4.1.2.4 Vibro Peen, Manual Characters are produced by a hand guided rapidly vibrating tool having a pointed tip

36、making indentations on the item to produce the characters.SAE INTERNATIONAL AS478PPage6 of 15Table 1- Markingmethod number, class letter, anddepthMETHODNUMBER PARAGRAPH REFERENCE SEE NOTE1 MARKING METHODSee 3.2.6 DEPTHCLASS LETTER 1STTIER 2NDTIER 3RDTIER INCHMILLIMETER MIN MAX MIN MAX A B C D E F G
