Speedy deletion nomination of File:Type 1 photoanodized aluminum cross section.jpg

edit
 

A tag has been placed on File:Type 1 photoanodized aluminum cross section.jpg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the image is an unused redundant copy (all pixels the same or scaled down) of an image in the same file format, which is on Wikipedia (not on Commons), and all inward links have been updated.

If you think that the page was nominated in error, contest the nomination by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion" in the speedy deletion tag. Doing so will take you to the talk page where you can explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but do not hesitate to add information that is consistent with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. Stefan2 (talk) 19:42, 13 August 2012 (UTC)Reply

MIL-DTL-15024

edit

MIL-DTL-15024 is a military specification established by the United States Department of Defense to define the physical characteristics of plates, tags and bands used for identification of equipment. First established in 1952 as MS15024A (cancelled), MIL-DTL-15024 is currently in its seventh revision as MIL-DTL-15024F.[1]

MIL-DTL-15024 is maintained by the Naval Air Warfare Center Aircraft Division and used by all branches of the U.S. military and their suppliers to define labeling standards for new and repair equipment. An eight revision (G) is currently under review for publication by NAVAIR. MIL-DTL-15024 guides the marking of equipment and components for ships, submarines, aircraft, vehicles, weapons systems, communication systems and other military support equipment. MIL-DTL-15024 references 19 specifications and is referenced by 425 other military and commercial specifications.[2] The most recent copy of MIL-DTL-15024 can be obtained via the Defense Standardization Program’s ASSIST portal.

MIL-DTL-15024 has six sections: 1. SCOPE, 2. APPLICABLE DOCUMENTS, 3. REQUIREMENTS, 4. VERIFICATION, 5. PACKAGING and 6. NOTES. The requirements section defines characteristics of marking options including plate size/thickness, color/contrast, character spacing, materials and marking methods. The verification section lists performance requirements and the applicable tests that verify performance characteristics for each marking type.

Classifications of Label Plates

edit

MIL-DTL-15024 defines 10 material classifications for label plates, nameplates, data plates, signs, tags, labels or bands. The 10 classifications are listed below and are differentiated based upon material and imaging process.

Proposed Changes (Revision G)

edit

The proposed revision of MIL-DTL-15024 (revision G) updates document language and furthers the definition of Type L laser generated plates. Revision G, table IV, has updated test procedures for meeting the requirements of each classification type, including updated definitions and use guidance for Type L – Laser Generated Plates. The significance of this inclusion is that laser engraved materials are becoming increasingly utilized for commercial and defense marking applications. A proposed product added to MIL-DTL-15024 in revision G is coated steel for lasers which provides an option to replace the cumbersome practice of deep engraving and paint filling steel that has been common for defense applications.

Starting in revision G, the Navy has expanded its definition of the products and performance requirements for Type L laser generated materials as follows:

  • Class 1 - laser markable black anodized aluminum impregnated with silver compounds (commercial name: BlackPlus®)
  • Class 2 - laser markable black (or red) aluminum sheet coated with a weatherable, abrasion-resistant coating (commercial name: DuraBlack® and DuraRed®)
  • Class 3 - laser engraved plastic, two-ply phenolic (generic, no commercial name)
  • Class 4 - laser markable (bonded) stainless steel pre-coated with ceramic compound (commercial name: LaserBond®)

The purpose of this change is to ensure that when the DoD and its suppliers choose to use Type L materials, they pick the correct material for the application environment based upon both durability, label plate size/thickness, image characteristics and lead time/quantity requirements. More information on classes 1,2,3, and 4 of MIL-DTL-15024 Type L can be found on www.mildtl15024.com.

The other main proposed change is to update Table IV to include different test conditions for metallic vs. non metallic versions of types A-L when applicable whereas metallic substrates often are able to survive more rigorous conditions for tests of temperature, weather, abrasion and fluid resistance.
