10、Reserved December 2013 Page 2 of 17 approve any variance or deviation from product specifications. Variance from process requirements must be in agreement with written procedures. 3.3 Process Evaluation. 3.3.1 Tool Verification and System Qualification. The procuring manufacturing engineering functi

11、on must verify that new as built tooling agrees with the tool design and/or Tool and Equipment Statement of Requirements. The applicable sections of the Global Launch Manual and BIW Manufacturing Validation Procedure (MV1) are to be utilized to perform the verification and qualification activities.

12、Any tooling revisions necessitated by this procedure must be completed and tool design documents updated. Records of the verification and system qualification activity are to be maintained. Once qualified, the applicable Weld Tool Data or Dispense Tool Data Sheet and the associated robot program are

13、 to be placed under change control. 3.3.2 Tool Re-qualification. Each tool must be re-qualified whenever a change occurs in the product or process that was part of the original verification and qualification activity. Records of the re-qualification activity are to be maintained. 3.3.3 Equipment Pro

14、cess Monitoring. Equipment process monitoring, (i.e., predictive maintenance) consists of measuring process parameters established during tool qualification as well as visual evaluation of the equipment functional operation. Parameters identified outside prescribed limits require appropriate correct

15、ive action to restore the process to the qualified state. Equipment process monitoring requirements for the various joining and dispense processes are contained in Appendices A thru J of this standard. Tasks identified as Operator Maintenance (OM) should be considered for assignment to the productio

16、n organization if practical. Equipment process monitoring activities are to be described in written procedures or standardized work. 3.3.4 Equipment Scheduled Maintenance. Each location shall have documented plans for the preventative maintenance of equipment. The equipment maintenance schedule shou

17、ld be consistent with the tool or equipment manufacturers recommendations. 3.4 In-Process Inspection and Test. In-process inspection consists of evaluating the manufactured/welded product with the released design and the applicable GM Engineering Standards to identify, contain, and repair nonconform

18、ing product. In-process inspection and tests are to occur as close as practical to the point of operation. The in-process inspection and test activity for all welded parts and dispense applications must be described in written procedures or standardized work. Unless stated elsewhere, inspection and

19、testing is to occur at evenly spaced intervals throughout the shift, (i.e., a frequency of four times per shift would equate to one check approximately every 2 h of an 8 h shift, a frequency of two times per shift would equate to one check in the first half of the shift and one check in the second h

20、alf of the shift). The purpose of the in-process inspection is to periodically verify specific quality attributes and detect deficiencies prior to product leaving the weld shop. In-process inspection is not a substitute for the required equipment maintenance or equipment process monitoring. Nonconfo

21、rming product identified during in-process inspection and test requires suspect product to be contained and repaired or an authorization allowing the product to deviate from specification. Documented corrective actions are required for nonconforming product. 3.4.1 In-Process Inspection and Test (Res

22、istance Spot Welds and Sheet Metal Projection Welds). A deformation check of all spot welds (for all styles and all cells) is recommended to occur four times per shift at evenly spaced intervals. The minimum required frequency is one check per weld gun, metal stack-up, and weld schedule combination,

23、 sampled two times per shift. When a weld gun installs more than one weld on the same metal stack-up or on different body styles, rotate the in-process inspection (where practical) to include the other welds and body styles. Concurrent with the deformation checks, visually inspect the adjoining weld

24、s for conformance to the applicable product drawing and GM Engineering Standard. This visual inspection is to identify welds containing holes or cracks, welds not installed, edge welds, welds with excessive indentation, distortion, or surface eruptions, and extra welds. In instances where a deformat

25、ion check of spot welds is not possible or the spot welds are inaccessible due to being closed out, the alternative methods of verifying or assuring weld fusion may be utilized: Ultrasonic weld inspection (refer to 3.6). Increased equipment process monitoring. Increased weld destruct test frequency.

Welded fasteners shall be verified for conformance to the visual acceptance criteria of the applicable standard a minimum of two times

28、per shift. Threaded welded fasteners are to be tested with a chisel notch test, click wrench procedure or portable nut retention tester. Retention of non-threaded welded fasteners is to be tested with a chisel notch test. The minimum required frequency is one fastener per weld gun and metal stack-up

29、, sampled two times per shift. When a weld gun welds more than one fastener on the same metal stack-up or on multiple body styles, rotate the in-process inspection (where practical) to include the other fasteners. 3.4.3 In-Process Inspection and Tests (Welded Studs). Welded studs shall be verified f

30、or conformance to the visual acceptance criteria of the applicable standard a minimum of two times per shift. Drawn arc weld studs are to be proof tested utilizing a nondestructive bend test or click wrench style stud testing tool. The minimum required frequency is one stud per weld gun and metal st

31、ack-up, sampled two times per shift. When a weld gun installs more than one stud on the same metal stack-up or on multiple body styles, rotate the in-process inspection (where practical) to include the other studs. 3.4.4 In-Process Inspection and Tests (Mechanical Clinches). Mechanical clinches shal

32、l be verified for conformance to the visual acceptance criteria of the applicable standard a minimum of two times per shift. Mechanical clinches are to be tested according to the manufacturers recommendation using a Go/No Go gauge, calipers or a scissors gauge (7.1, Glossary). The minimum required f

33、requency is one clinch for each operation and metal stack-up, sampled two times per shift. When one tool installs more than one clinch on the same metal stack-up or on multiple body styles, rotate the in-process inspection (where practical) to include the other clinch locations. 3.4.5 In-Process Ins

34、pection and Tests (Arc and Laser Welds). Manually installed arc welds shall be verified for conformance to the visual criteria of the applicable GM Engineering Standard and product design release information on all jobs. Automated or robotically installed arc welds, arc braze, plasma braze, laser an

35、d laser braze joints shall be verified for conformance to the visual acceptance criteria of the applicable standard a minimum of two times per shift on each body style produced. In-process physical testing of arc welds, arc braze and laser braze joints is not required. 3.4.6 In-Process Inspection an

36、d Tests (Sealer and Adhesives). Manually applied sealer and adhesive shall be verified for conformance to the visual acceptance criteria of the product release document or the approved Product Quality Standards (PQS) on all jobs. Note: Bead diameters when shown are reference values only to aid in th

37、e initial set up and qualification of the process to achieve wet out. Automated dispense operations equipped with vision monitoring require inspection of a single 25 mm portion of the bead. Automated dispense operations not equipped with vision monitoring are to be visually verified for conformance

38、to requirements once per shift on each body style produced. 3.4.7 In-Process Inspection and Tests (Self Pierce Rivets).

44、dled in accord with the Global Quality Requirements for Nonconforming Material. Documented corrective actions are required for nonconforming product. 3.5.1 Weld Destruct Test Frequency - Assembly Plants. At the Start of System Fill, the frequency of full body destruct is one of each new body style p

45、er month. Once the system is running at a steady state, the weld system process capability can be assessed. Once acceptable process capability has been demonstrated and documented, the weld destruct frequency can then be reduced to a quarterly destruct test of each body style. An acceptable process

46、capability demonstration consists of completing three consecutive monthly destruct tests that meet requirements (all patterns conforming). 3.5.2 Weld Destruct Test Frequency - Fabricating Plants. At Start of Production, the frequency of destruct tests is to be one of each assembly per month until pr

47、ocess capability is demonstrated and documented. Process capability consists of completing three consecutive destruct tests that meet requirements (all patterns conforming). The frequency can then be reduced to a quarterly destruct test of each assembly. 3.5.3 Weld Destruct (Resistance Spot Welds).

48、Prior to conducting each weld destruct and as part of a re-qualification activity, weld quantity and location are to be verified. Visual acceptance criteria including applicable appearance standards are also to be verified. The weld destruct test is an evaluation of welded product that uses any of t

49、he various methodologies (i.e., destructive hammer and chisel, peel test, mechanical spreader, cross sectioning) to measure and evaluate various product quality characteristics for conformance to requirements. Destructively tested product results in irreversible metal separation, and this product cannot be reworked or repaired. Note: Peel testing is the preferred method of inspection for aluminum spot welds. Hammer and chisel testing is not an acceptable met
