A Mill Test Report (MTR) and often also called a Certified Mill Test Report, Certified Material Test Report, Mill Test Certificate (MTC), Inspection Certificate, Certificate of Test and a host of other names is a quality assurance document used in the metals industry that certifies a material's chemical and physical properties and states a product made of metal (steel, aluminum, brass or other alloys) compliance with an international standards organization (such as ANSI, ASME, etc.) specific standards. Mill here refers to an industry which manufactures & processes Raw Materials. ==Steel== An MTC provides traceability and assurance to the end user about the quality of the steel used and the process used to produce it. Typically a European MTC will be produced to EN 10204. High quality steels for pressure vessel of structural purposes will be certificated to 3.1 or 3.2. 3.2 requires an independent test by a certification body such as Lloyds Register, but 3.1 requires a certified quality systems The MTC will specify the type of certificate, the grade of steel and any addenda. It will also specify the results of chemical and physical examination to allow the purchaser or end user to compare the plate to the requirements of the relevant standards. What is (MTC for Steel )? 1. Definition In steel industry, MTC means mill's test certificate. Some mills also call it as MTR, that is, mill's test report. 2. Mill test certificate contents One MTC must contains the following information: steel mill's name, heat number, batch number, final test result, steel pipe dimension (steel pipe diameter, wall thickness, length), quantity, steel grade, standard/specification, chemical analysis composition results, mechanical test properties results. If applicable, there also should be hydro test result,UT result, hardness test result, CVN impact results, metal graphic result etc. 3. MTC for Steel Format Usually mill will issue a table as the format of MTC of steel pipe or steel plate, to filled with enough test results. Few companies will issue a report format as MTC for steel pipes. 4. Types of MTC in steel industry There are mainly two types of MTC in steel industry, as for steel plates or steel pipes, there must be specific inspection scope or lists: 4.1 MTC EN 10204 3.1 MTC 3.1 is issued by the manufacturer in which he declares that the products supplied are in compliance with the requirements of the order and in which he supplies test results. This is the most common MTC in steel industry, when there is no extra requirement of customer for TPI inspection and witness of production and inspection of tests. 4.2 MTC EN 10204 3.2 MTC 3.2 refers to the report prepared by both the manufacturer’s authorized inspection representative, independent of the manufacturing department and either the purchaser’s authorized inspection representative or the inspector designated by the official regulations and in which they declare that the products supplied are in compliance with the requirements of the order and in which test results are supplied. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Mill Test Report」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
