Standards Development
This document specifies requirements for the qualification of operators of laser metal powder bed fusion machines and equipment for additive manufacturing, except for aerospace applications. This document defines general criteria for the qualification of machine operators, the activities and procedures regardless the process used in the part production.
Note: Requirements for the qualification of operators of laser metal powder bed fusion machines and equipment for additive manufacturing in aerospace applications are addressed in ISO/ASTM 52942 Additive manufacturing — Qualification principles — Qualifying machine operators of laser metal powder bed fusion machines and equipment used in aerospace applications.
If industrially used components are manufactured using additive manufacturing processes, it must be proven that these meet the requirements. To this end, the production chain and environment must be designed in such a way that the process quality and the resulting product quality are always consistent and reproducible.
In order to assure the before mentioned consistency and reproducibility, is of utmost importance to assure that the involved workforce is adequately qualified for the several production stages.
This document describes the activities and responsibilities of the actors on the field of the Additive Manufacturing technology.
