CQI-9 Heat Treatment Audit Services

VyVy provides CQI-9 Audit Services for automotive manufacturers, suppliers and heat-treatment companies that need an independent assessment of their heat-treatment system.

Our senior auditors assess the site against the applicable AIAG CQI-9 Heat Treat System Assessment, customer-specific requirements and the heat-treatment processes actually performed. The audit covers the system, process controls, pyrometry, equipment, applicable process tables and job audit requirements.

OUR SERVICE

CQI-9 Audit Services for Heat Treatment Processes

VyVy can audit your own facility or an external heat-treatment supplier. We can work against your own assessment format or directly against the applicable CQI-9 requirements.

Typical assignments include:

Internal CQI-9 audits

Supplier CQI-9 audits

CQI-9 gap assessments

Corrective-action verification

AUDIT SCOPE

What We Review During a CQI-9 Heat Treatment Audit

The scope is adapted to the processes and equipment used at the facility.

AREA

VERIFICATION

Heat Treat System

Responsibilities, controls, competence and quality planning

Pyrometry

Calibration, thermocouples, TUS, SAT and temperature monitoring

Equipment

Furnaces, alarms, controls, maintenance and process monitoring

Process Tables

Requirements applicable to the heat-treatment process

Job Audit

Actual production parameters, records and conformity

Our auditors compare the completed CQI-9 assessment with the condition of the process on site. A compliant assessment form is not enough if the furnace controls, records or production practices do not support it.

HEAT TREATMENT EXPERTISE

CQI-9 Audits Across Automotive Heat Treatment Processes

VyVy supports assessments across processes such as carburizing, carbonitriding, hardening, tempering, annealing, nitriding, ferritic nitrocarburizing and induction hardening.

Auditor profiles are selected according to the thermal process involved. This matters. An induction hardening line does not require the same technical understanding as a carburizing furnace or a continuous heat-treatment line.
