The presentation gave the history of the group, the actions of the group to date, and the future plans. It was at the NMC Steering meeting that a decision was to be made regarding the MMM formally becoming a Task Group.

5.0  CHECKLIST DEVELOPMENT – OPEN

Development of the forging checklist from the work done during the WebEx meetings and following the forging process flow already developed continued. The main topic covered at this meeting was item 5 – Heating Process and item 6 - Forging Process.

There was a discussion on pyrometric controls of the forging furnace, especially when that furnace is used to also develop material properties such as hardening off the press. Attendees were asked to investigate requirements for this to be discussed at a future meeting.

From discussions held, it was highlighted that the group was unclear on whether the scope of the MMM Task Group includes fasteners and if it does what is the size limit. (Note - already clearly agreed that Standard Parts fasteners are NOT in scope). Subscribers will be contacted to confirm their intent.

Adam Kent agreed to review Forge Furnace questions for applicability to induction heating.

ACTION ITEM: All team members to confirm requirements for pyrometric control of furnaces when the heating for forging also develops material properties (e.g. hardening off the press) (Due Date: 01-Sep-2014)

ACTION ITEM: All Subscribing Prime members to confirm with their NMC reps the scope of the MMM Task Group with respect to fasteners (Due Date: 01-Sep-2014)
