ID 973: VDA Volume 19.1 – Technical Cleanliness in the Automotive Industry – Qualification as Inspector for Technical Cleanliness

The VDA volume 19.1 (2015) “Inspection of Technical Cleanliness – Particulate Contamination of functionally relevant Automotive Components” is a comprehensive standard publication dealing with the approach and procedures to characterize the cleanliness of products in the automotive quality chain.

In the training, you will learn to independently design, perform and document cleanliness analyses according to VDA 19.1.

The compatibility between VDA 19.1 and DIN EN ISO 16232 (Part 1 – 10) “road Vehicles – Cleanliness of Components of fluid Circuits” also enables participants to conduct cleanliness analyses according to the international standard.

Aim

• You will be able to independently design cleanliness analyses according to VDA 19.1, carry them out with state-of-the-art equipment and document them in accordance with the regulations.
• You will be familiar with the background of the technical necessity of cleanliness testing and cleanliness-compliant behavior.
• You will be able to perform cleanliness analyses according to international standards.
• You will be familiar with the background of the quality parameter technical cleanliness in automotive engineering.
• You will be able to carry out the extraction procedure for obtaining particle contamination from components and the analysis procedure for evaluating and quantifying particle contamination.
• You will be familiar with the contents of the cleanliness test according to VDA Volume 19.1 – Decay Measurements, Blank Values and routine Tests.

Content

This training alternates between technical presentations and practical exercises in order to support the transfer of what has been learned into your own working practice. Special emphasis is placed on opportunities to exchange experiences.

Target audience

• Persons who carry out cleanliness tests in the automotive and supplier industry or as service providers.
• Employees who are confronted with the quality parameter of technical cleanliness in their daily work, such as design, quality assurance, technical purchasing and sales.
• Due to the similar cleanliness requirements in the sectors aero- space, hydraulics and precision engineering, this training is also suitable for personnel from these backgrounds.
• Examiners for Technical Cleanliness as Delta training. The theoretical basics also convey comprehensive knowledge of the new and revised VDA volume 19.1 (2015). An additional examination is not necessary

Qualification Certificate

• At the end of the training, you will receive a certificate of attendance from the Fraunhofer Institute.
