NF EN ISO/ASTM 52909, E67-304 (03/2024)

This document covers additional guidelines for the assessment of mechanical properties, including static/quasi-static and dynamic testing, of metals made by additive manufacturing (AM) to provide recommendations on reporting the results in a test report on as-built specimens or specimens cut from parts made by AM or by this technique, or both. This document is provided to take advantage of already existing standards. Guidelines are provided for measuring and reporting the mechanical properties of metal specimens obtained by additive manufacturing and those cut from parts produced by AM. This document does not purport to address all safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this document to establish appropriate safety, health and environmental practices and to determine the applicability of regulatory restrictions prior to use. This document goes beyond the nomenclature of ISO/ASTM 52900 and the principles of ISO 17295 and extends them specifically to metal additive manufacturing. The application of this document is primarily intended to provide guidance on orientation designations in cases where useful orientation/direction for AM cannot be obtained by available test methods.
