Standards organization launches subcommittee to expand use of AM technologies

ASTM International’s committee on additive manufacturing technologies (F42) has launched a new subcommittee focused on creating standards that support the growing number of additive manufacturing applications across various industry sectors.
“The evolution of additive manufacturing technologies, combined with sector-specific requirements, demand us to create a broader portfolio of more detailed and stringent standards that support qualification of high-value-added parts and components,” said Mohsen Seifi, director of global additive manufacturing programs at ASTM, West Conshohocken, Pa. “The new subcommittee will help broaden F42’s scope, helping meet these industries’ specific emerging needs and fill their technical gaps.”
ASTM International member Shane Collins will chair the new applications subcommittee (F42.07). He said, “We are reaching the tipping point in many industries. More and more parts are manufactured efficiently using additive manufacturing instead of traditional manufacturing. By creating industry-specific standards, we can continue to support that innovation.”
The F42 AM committee meets twice yearly. The next meeting is March 26-28, 2019, in Auburn, Alabama.
