ASTM WK74931

New Specification for Additive Manufacturing of Metals -- Feedstock Materials -- Powder Life Cycle Management

1. Scope

This document specifies requirements and describes aspects for the lifecycle management of metal feedstock materials for powder based additive manufacturing processes. Those aspects include: Powder properties, Powder lifecycle, Test methods and Powder quality assurance. Note : This document can be used by manufacturers of metal powders, purchasers of powder feedstock for additive manufacturing, those responsible for the quality assurance of additively manufactured parts and suppliers of measurement and testing equipment for characterizing metal powders for use in powder-based additive manufacturing processes.

Keywords

AM; Powder; QA

Rationale

There is no International Standard for Powder Life Cycle Management available yet. Such a Standard will fill an existing gap for powder quality assurance in the AM industry. Once approved, this standard will carry to designation ISO/ASTM 52928.
