Material received; Machine Department Manager notified of need for inspection and classification of materials
4 Machine Department Manager Notification of need for inspection of materials received Accompanying material certs, Production Floor Traveler, own knowledge Inspect and verify material and classify as Primary, Critical, Flight Safety ; have material moved to designated area according to classification and received per TOP-MOPPP. Material inspected, verified, classified and moved to designated area
NOTE: STEP 5 IS BROKEN OUT FOR THE SPECIFIC "OTHER" MATERIALS WE RECEIVE. REFER ANY NOT LISTED TO Machine Division Buyer
5a Material Handler Upon receiving springs for use on gate valve assemblies Accompanying paperwork; part drawing Check at least ten springs from each container for: dimensional and geometric compliance; perform visual inspection for pits, rust and cracks; check for discoloration (should be bright, silvery and shiny); verify the reported certifications are within the material specifications; forward certifications to Machine Department Buyer; enter into Other Raw Material Inventory system unless problems are found; if problems are found, initiate Raw Material Nonconformance Procedure (TOP-RMNON); put springs in storage unless there is a problem Springs checked for compliance; certifications forwarded to Machine Department Buyer; problems reported
5b Machine Department Buyer Upon receiving certifications for springs, for use on gate valve assemblies Certifications File certification Evidence of quality product retained
5c Material Handler Upon receiving pins for use on gate valve assemblies Accompanying paperwork; Purchase Order Check at least ten pins from each container for dimensional compliance, pits, rust and cracks; if problems are found, initiate Raw Material Nonconformance Procedure (TOP-RMNON) put pins in storage unless there is a problem Pins checked for compliance; problems reported; entered in Other Raw Material Inventory system; stored if no problem
5d Crib Attendant/ Machine Department Buyer Upon receiving bolts for use on tamping tools Accompanying paperwork; Purchase Order Match container label with Purchase Order; check at least ten bolts from each container to verify that they fit the tamping tool (if available) while doing a visual inspection for cracks; enter into Other Raw Material Inventory system unless problems are found; if problems are found, initiate Raw Material Nonconformance Procedure (TOP-RMNON); put bolts in storage unless there is a problem Bolts checked for compliance; problems reported; entered in Other Raw Material Inventory system stored if no problem

5g Welder Upon receiving weld consumables for use on product Accompanying paperwork, Purchase Order Verify correct material received  and is in compliance; forward material certifications to Materials Manager; store consumables in dry metal cabinet for protection from moisture and UV light. Weld consumables verified for compliance; problems reported; material traceability maintained; weld consumables preserved and stored
5h Materials Manager Upon receipt of materials certifications Accompanying paperwork; Purchase Order Have material certifications scanned for traceability retention. Certifications stored in archives for minimum retention then destroyed (per TOP-DOCUM). Evidence of quality  product retained
5i Materials Handler Upon receipt of customer supplied tooling or fixtures Accompanying paperwork; Purchase order Forward customer packing list or shipping authority to Machining Clerk to be filed as evidence of receipt of customer supplied tooling and/or fixtures..
