New ASTM International Group Will Help Expand Applications of Additive Manufacturing 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 applications of the technology 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. The new subcommittee will help broaden F42’s scope, helping meet these industries’ specific emerging needs and fill their technical gaps” says Mohsen Seifi, Ph.D., director of global additive manufacturing programs, ASTM.
