Overview
EN 3114-004:2006 is a CEN (Aerospace series) test-method standard that provides reference micrographs for the microstructure of (α + β) titanium alloy wrought sheet for superplastic forming. Intended to be used in conjunction with EN 3114-001 (general requirements), this document supplies visual microstructural examples to support metallographic assessment and quality control for titanium sheet used in aerospace superplastic forming applications.
Key topics and requirements
- Micrographs provided: A set of labelled images (4L1A–4L12A and 4L1B–4L12B) illustrating (α + β) microstructures in longitudinal section.
- Two conditions shown:
- Annealed condition (4LxA series).
- Heat-treated condition: 930 °C / t = 30 min / water quench (WQ) (4LxB series).
- Magnification and orientation: Images are presented at 200:1 and are longitudinal-section micrographs, useful for consistent comparison.
- Use with EN 3114-001: EN 3114-004 is a pictorial supplement and is not standalone - it must be applied together with the general requirements and procedures in Part 001.
- Standards provenance: Prepared by ASD-STAN and adopted by CEN; national adoption across European member bodies is expected.
Practical applications
- Metallography & inspection: Serves as a reference atlas for laboratories to compare measured microstructures of (α + β) titanium sheet intended for superplastic forming.
- Quality control: Helps manufacturing and quality teams verify heat-treatment effects and ensure consistency between annealed and solution-treated + quenched conditions.
- Process validation: Useful when validating rolling, annealing or heat-treatment processes that affect grain morphology and phase distribution in titanium sheet.
- Training & documentation: Serves as a teaching aid for materials engineers, inspectors, and metallographers learning to identify typical (α + β) microstructures at specified magnification.
- Aerospace supply chain: Beneficial for OEMs, suppliers, inspection bodies and material certification teams involved with titanium sheet for aircraft components produced by superplastic forming.
