3 • Terms and definitions
b) special or subsequent heat treatment if required (together with the heat-treatment conditions);
c) heat treatment for stress relieving; it shall be agreed upon between the manufacturer and the purchaser;
d) intentions to enamel, galvanize, plate, etc. the castings;
C) sequence of machining and final heat treatment in the fabrication process (for ausferritic spheroidal graphite iron castings):
f) formation of test units (unless already defined by material specifications it shall be in accordance with
8.3.1).
4.3 • Drawings, patterns and tools
4.4 • Information on the mass
4.5 • Preliminary sample
4.6 • Initial sample
5 Designations
The designation(s) of cast iron material(s) shall be In accordance with EN 1560.
NOTE Designations of cast iron materials are given in the applicable material standards.
6 Manufacture
6.1 • Manufacturing process
6.2 Welding operations
6.2.1 • General
Welding shall be performed by a qualified welder, in accordance with EN 287-6. Welding procedures shall be in accordance with EN ISO 15614-3 and based on the recommendations given In EN 1011-8.
6.2.2 • Production welding
Production welding shall only be permitted according to a written agreement between the manufacturer and the purchaser.
Subject to an agreement between the manufacturer and the purchaser, the manufacturer may either undertake finishing welding generally and/or up to a certain limit without reference back to the purchaser or may be required to seek the purchasers permission in specific cases.
NOTE EN 1562 indudes a weldable grade: EN-GJMW-360.12 (5.4201).
7 Requirements
7.1 • General
7.2 Material
7.2.1 • Chemical composition
7.2.2 • Mechanical properties
7.2.3 • Other properties
7.3 Casting
7.3.1 • Chemical composition
NOTE If post inoculation in the metal stream or in the moulds is carñed out, there might be a slight deviation in analysis (silicon namely) between the composition of the liquid metal in the pouring device and the composition of the casting
7.3.2 • Mechanical properties
7.3.3 • Outer and inner conditions (non destructive testing)
7.3.3.1 The testing shall be performed according to the relevant European Standards as listed in Table 1. Other methods may be agreed between purchaser and manufacturer.
7.3.3.3 The selection of a non destructive testing method is dependent on the thickness and material of the casting and the position, orientation and size of possible disconliriuities in the relevant section.
Different acceptance criteria can be specified for different areas of the same casting (e.g. marked zone and unmarked area). Moreover, for the same area of the casting different acceptance criteria can be specified according to the non destructive methods selected.
For all non destructive testing methods, the acceptance criteria (discontinuity levels) can be graded with increasing number and/or extent of indications.
Unless specifically agreed, discontinuities revealed on cast surfaces which are to be machined, are not to be regarded as discontinuities, when these discontinuities are totally removed by machining.
Guidelines for the specification of acceptance criteria for discontinuities are given in the informative Annex A.
7.3.3.4 If applicable, the roughness of the cast or grinded surface shall be specified.
EN 1370 shall be used to specify the acceptance levels and shall be subject of an agreement between the
manufacturer and the purchaser by the time of acceptance of the order.
Guidelines for the specification of acceptance criteria for the surface condition are given in the informative
Annex B.
7.3.4 • Condition of the casting
7.3.5 • Mass of the casting
The mass can be calculated using the mass density given in the corresponding material standard.
7.3.6 • Additional requirements regarding the condition of the casting
The microstructures to be examined, the tests to be applied and any other requirement to be determined shall be subject of an agreement between the manufacturer and the purchaser by the time of acceptance of the order.
8 Inspection
8.1 • General
8.2 • Type of inspection documents and type of inspection
The requirements given in the relevant material standard shall also apply.
