The quality control of aviation forgings is of Paramount importance as it relates to the safety and reliability of the aircraft. In the aviation industry, the stringent requirements are mainly focused on the following aspects: Material selection and testing: The alloy materials used in aviation forgings must meet strict standards. These materials need to have sufficient strength, toughness and corrosion resistance, while also undergoing rigorous material testing and certification. The material quality of forgings is ensured by metallographic microscopy, ultrasonic testing, magnetic particle testing and other non-destructive testing methods. Process control: The production process of aviation forgings is very important, and defects in any link may have a serious impact on the quality and performance of the final product. Process control includes the control of forging temperature and speed, the accuracy and rationality of mold design, the heat treatment process after forging, and the surface treatment. By implementing strict process control and quality monitoring, dimensional accuracy, internal organization and mechanical stability of forgings can be ensured. Inspection and testing: Aviation forgings need to go through a series of inspections and tests to verify their quality and performance. Common ones include shape and size inspection, mechanical property testing (such as tensile, impact, hardness, etc.), metallographic microanalysis, ultrasonic testing, magnetic particle testing, eddy current testing, etc. These inspection and testing methods enable a comprehensive assessment of the quality of the forgings and rule out any potential defects and faults. Quality management system: Aviation forgings manufacturers need to establish a strict quality management system and follow the relevant international standards and certification requirements. For example, ISO9001 quality management system certification, aviation quality standards such as AS9100 and so on. Through effective quality management measures, can ensure the quality control of the whole track and responsibility traceability. In short, the quality control requirements of aviation forgings are very strict, requiring strict control and supervision of all aspects of materials, processes, testing and quality management. Only by ensuring quality reliability and compliance with standard requirements can the safety and reliability of the aircraft be guaranteed.
