17、ad thermocouple, nsensors that are attached to the production material or a representation of productionmaterial, that supply temperature data of the production material to process or test instrumentation.4. Equipment4.1 Aluminum alloy ingots or rolling slabs are preheated prior to being hot rolled

18、as prescribed in 6.2. Controls shall be adequateto ensure that the equipment is operated in a manner which precludes overheating of the ingot or rolling slab or deleteriouscontamination by the furnace environment. Metal temperature shall be monitored and controlled to not exceed the maximumtemperatu

19、re shown in Table 1 prior to hot rolling.NOTE 1Some aspects of the metallurgical structure of the alloy after solution heat treatment are influenced by the thermal characteristics of the heatingequipment used, and the starting microstructure of the ingot. Some heating equipment achieves very rapid t

20、emperature rise and may require the metalto be soaked for a period to ensure that sufficient applicable alloying elements are taken into solid solution. This soaking stage may be minimized if thealloying elements are substantially in solid solution prior to charging the metal to the heating equipmen

21、t (this being accomplished by sufficient priorhomogenization/cooling practices).4.1.1 Automatic or manual control and recording devices used to measure temperature at pertinent points in the heatingequipment shall be calibrated as specified in 5.1 and 5.2.

47、temperature appropriate for the alloy and shall not exceed the maximum temperatures listed inTable 1 (see Note 4). Table 32 shows the maximum allowable preheat/homogenizing furnace temperature tolerance. If a remotetemperature sensing system is used and has a known error which exceeds 6 2F 1C,62F 61

48、C, then the permitted upperbound shown in Table 1 shall be adjusted by an amount to ensure that the true metal temperature does not exceed the upper limitshown, or the instrument shall be recalibrated in accordance with 5.1.NOTE 4The surface temperature of a ingot may differ significantly from its i

49、nterior temperature. Temperature sensing devices may give instantaneousvalues at a specific point, or give average values over time or over an area. Note that gradients may differ between various heating equipment.NOTE 5The minimum starting ingot temperature is at the producers option. This is due to state of the art in roll speed control and reductioncapabilities. Documented Work Instructions shall be developed
