Scope
This document provides specifications for testing miniaturised metallic test pieces where not enough material is available for test pieces according to ISO 6892-1 [1].
The guidelines in this document are not intended to replace the requirements of the standard method described in ISO 6892-1.
This document refers to conventionally manufactured materials.
NOTE 1 Additional information regarding testing of additively manufactured materials are given in ISO/ASTM 52909 [2].
NOTE 2 Further information on the performance of miniaturised test pieces in tensile testing and the comparability of respective results is available in [3-9].
Purpose
This International Standard provides guidelines for testing miniaturised metallic test pieces and can be applied in cases where not enough material is available for test pieces according 6892-1.
Miniaturised test pieces can e.g. be used in the following cases:
— Verification of component specifications and optimisation of the production of components
— Validation of FE-forming simulations
— Determination of input data for crash and service life calculation
— Characterisation of local properties e. g. properties in the vicinity of welds
— Evaluation of cases of damage (failure analysis)
— Product development
