Temperature Uniformity Surveys (TUS) and Standards – AMS 2750e, AMS 2770, NADCAP, CQI-9 for System Accuracy Testing

Temperature Uniformity Surveys (TUS) Reports are critical to the certification of thermal processes to ensure the quality of product.  Standards such as AMS 2750e, AMS 2770, NADCAP and CQI-9 define the heat treat quality requirements for various industries.  Dream Report delivers specific analytics (built in statistics and graphic objects) to address Temperature Uniformity Survey (TUS) applications.  It starts with connectivity to the automation system data sources, often Smart Recorder products.  They can be a Eurotherm, Yokogawa or other data recorders monitoring the thermal process (Heat Treat Furnace) or any other thermal system.  Dream Report delivers drivers (data connectors) to access that logged data.  Then, Dream Report, based on additional parameters the user specifies, analyzes the results, performs its thermal uniformity calculations, creates thermal uniformity charts, and generates the final Temperature Uniformity Survey (TUS) report, meeting AMS 2750, AMS 2770, NADCAP, CQI-9 requirements.

More Detail on Temperature  Uniformity Survey Standards

The latest standards include AMS 2750E, CQI-9 and NADCAP.  AMS 2750 E (Aerospace Material Specifications) is applicable for the industrial processing of high-quality materials.  AMS 2750 E and derivative standards such as AMS 2770, for example, are for the heat treatment of aluminum are the guidelines for the aerospace industry.  CQI-9 enables the automotive industry to adhere to higher quality heat treatment standards.  Nadcap (formerly NADCAP, the National Aerospace and Defense Contractors Accreditation Program) is a global cooperative accreditation program for aerospace engineering, defense and related industries.

Meeting these standards  for thermal uniformity monitoring requires the proper data collection, formatting and presentation that Dream Report can deliver.  Dream Report can easily generate the thermal uniformity calculations required for proving the quality of your thermal processes.  Moreover, Dream Report can also be there to monitor each heat treat batch, delivering the quality and heat treat certification reports you need for the delivery of your products.
