Go to the Dashboard. Select “High Pressure Die Casting” (Section 2). Enter audit scope: Melting, shot end, trimming, and X-ray inspection. cqi-27 casting system assessment xls

However, implementing CQI-27 effectively without the right tools is like navigating a labyrinth without a map. This is where a well-structured (Excel spreadsheet) becomes invaluable. This article will dissect the CQI-27 standard, explain why an Excel-based assessment tool is the industry’s preferred solution, and provide a roadmap to creating or using an XLS file that drives real, measurable improvement. Section 1: What is CQI-27? A Refresher on the Standard The CQI-27 standard is part of the AIAG’s "Continuous Quality Improvement" (CQI) series, analogous to CQI-9 (Heat Treat) and CQI-12 (Coating). It specifically targets special processes related to casting. | Clause ID | Process Step | Requirement

Check Clause 2.3.6 (Shot speed and intensification pressure). The machine’s digital display shows parameters out of range. You mark “Non-Compliant” in the drop-down. The XLS auto-flags the finding in red. You type the evidence: “Shot speed setpoint drift; closed-loop control not functioning.” Section 1: What is CQI-27

Export the XLS to PDF. Present the summary to supplier management. The CAP sheet is already populated with non-conformances. Assign responsible parties and due dates immediately.

Use the XLS to tick through documents required by CQI-27. For Clause 2.1.4 (Material verification), you ask for melt logs. The supplier shows a spreadsheet. You record in the XLS: “Compliant – logs complete.”
