GENERAL REQUIREMENTS

 

3.1

General Requirements

The purpose of these qualification requirements is to ensure that qualified procedures are used by properly trained and qualified personnel. It shall be the responsibility of the contractor to ensure that only qualified personnel, procedures, and nondestructive test equipment are used in fabrication and inspection necessary to comply with this document. Procedures and personnel previously qualified or approved shall not require re-qualification provided that qualifications are appropriate for the production brazing, welding and soldering to be done and have not lapsed, and provided that qualification records are available to substantiate prior qualification or approval.

 

3.2

Welding procedure qualification

Prior to engaging in production welding, the welding procedure for Class B of Mil-STD-2219 shall be qualified. The pertinent welding variables shall be identified. AWS-B2.1 should be used as a guideline in the development of the welding procedure to ensure that all pertinent variables and tolerances are included. Re-qualification criteria shall be determined by the cognizant engineering organization.

3.2.1 Clarification of classes

Class B: Semi-critical applications. A weldment is semi-critical when a failure would reduce overall efficiency of the system but loss of the system or endangering of personnel would not be experienced.

 

3.3

Brazing procedure qualification

Prior to engaging in production brazing, the brazing procedure for AWS-B2.2 and AWS-C3.4 shall be qualified. The pertinent brazing variables shall be identified. AWS-A3.0 should be used as a guideline in the development of the brazing procedure to ensure that all pertinent variables and tolerances are included. Re-qualification criteria shall be determined by the cognizant engineering organization.

3.4

Soldering procedure qualification

Prior to engaging in production soldering, the soldering procedure for IPC J-STD-001D and IPC/WHMA-A-620 shall be qualified. The pertinent soldering variables shall be identified. IPC J-STD-001D and IPC/WHMA-A-620 should be used as a guideline in the development of the soldering procedure to ensure that all pertinent variables and tolerances are included. Re-qualification criteria shall be determined by the cognizant engineering organization.


 
4.0 COGNIZNAT ENGINEERING ORGANIZATION

ITW Military GSE Engineering Group shall be the cognizant engineering organization responsible for the design of the welded, brazed and soldered assembly. This definition does not limit the Engineering Group to the design personnel but should include the appropriate engineering personnel in the organization’s material and process group, stress analysis group, welding shop and quality control as appropriate to the particular weldment.

  4.1

Example

The following example is provided to add clarity:

ITW Military GSE Engineering Group is the design organization for a weldment assembly. Welding is performed both in-house and at a subcontractor. The engineering personnel at ITW Military GSE must approve any deviation from the design.
