1 Introduction

Note: Note: Nothing in this standard supercedes applicable laws and regulations.

Note: In the event of conflict between the English and domestic language, the English language shall take precedence.

Purpose. This standard establishes the minimum requirements for steady state part monitoring to insure manufacturing processes are producing components within engineering specifications. Nothing in this document supersedes requirements specified by Product Engineering in the Component/Assembly drawings or Supplier Quality in the manufacturing control plan. This standard defines the engineering requirements that must be monitored through steady state production to insure customer expectations are met.

Applicability. This standard covers all global regions.

Remarks.

Dimensional Control - Variable Data. Variable Data is collected to insure Characteristics on Parts/Subassemblies that influence or establish fit or function requirements at next point of use, Assembly Plant, are within engineering specifications (for example: Instrument Panel Width to Door Trim, Overhead A-Pillar Contour to A-Pillar Garnish).

Dimensional Control - Attribute Checks. Attribute Data is collected to insure Characteristics on Parts/Subassemblies that are established and controlled during the manufacturing process and internal to the Part/Subassembly are within engineering specifications (for example: Instrument Panel Trim Plate to Radio, Overhead Wiring Harness Location).

Electrical Functionality. Electrical functionality is checked to insure electrical components internal to the Part/Subassembly are functioning within engineering specifications (for example: HVAC fan, radio, Navigation, etc.)

Torque Monitoring. Torque is monitored to insure fasteners used to attach components to the Parts/Assemblies are within engineering specifications.

Component Actuation Efforts. Actuation efforts are monitored to insure components function within engineering specifications.

Component Mutilation. Components are inspected to insure they are not soiled, scratched, torn, or otherwise deformed beyond engineering specifications.
