About us
The ASTM Additive Manufacturing Center of Excellence (AM CoE) serves as a global nexus for additive manufacturing, bringing together the most respected experts, institutions, and industry leaders to accelerate the responsible adoption of AM across the manufacturing ecosystem.
The AM CoE offers a uniquely integrated platform that spans the full additive manufacturing ecosystem, from pre-standardization research, data generation, and market intelligence, to the development and standardization of materials, methods and best practices, and into post-standardization activities such as workforce, certification, and strategic advisory services. This end-to-end approach empowers organizations to seamlessly bridge AM with traditional manufacturing workflows, enabling more agile, distributed, and resilient production.
The CoE’s authority is reinforced by the caliber of its collaborators. The Wohlers Report, the industry's most trusted annual market review, is built on insight from over 230 contributors from some of the most esteemed organizations worldwide.
The CoE's flagship event, ICAM, convenes nearly 1,000 presentations from leading voices in AM science, engineering, and policy, making it the premier global forum where the future of advanced manufacturing is decided. And at the heart of the CoE is a cohort of over 40 globally recognized experts who are not only advancing AM qualification and integration but also actively shaping industry standards, accelerating growth, and driving strategic collaborations across government, academic, and industry. ICAM goes beyond traditional conferences, positioning participants to amplify their influence, drive thought leadership, and build relationships that directly impact the evolution of manufacturing.
The AM CoE’s offerings include:
· Research-to-Standards initiatives that accelerate the creation of globally relevant specifications, bridging emerging technologies with formalized industry practices.
· Role-based training and eLearning, covering topics such as Design for AM (DfAM), quality assurance, and AM safety, empowering the current and next-generation workforce.
· Certification programs for facilities, quality systems, safety protocols, and personnel to mitigate risk, ensure compliance, and accelerate supplier readiness and qualifications.
· Strategic advisory services delivered through Wohlers Associates, supporting market entry, due diligence, and long-term innovation and business planning with deep industry insights.
Whether you’re exploring AM for the first time or scaling production in a regulated environment, the AM CoE provides the infrastructure, intelligence, and international perspective to support your success.

ASTM Additive Manufacturing Center of Excellence (AM CoE)
ASTM Additive Manufacturing Center of Excellence (AM CoE)
The ASTM AM CoE is a global initiative driving the industrialization of additive manufacturing through standardization, workforce development, data infrastructure, and cross-sector collaboration. With a unique position at the intersection of R&D, qualification, and certification, the AM CoE delivers scalable solutions that enable manufacturers to move from innovation to implementation.
Workforce Development & Training
To close critical knowledge gaps, the AM CoE offers a suite of personnel development programs:
Certificate Programs: General and role-based AM courses equip technicians, engineers, and managers with targeted skills across the AM value chain.
E-learning: Flexible online modules support just-in-time learning and scalable team training.
Workshops:
Snapshot Workshops provide broad AM education and highlight standardization gaps.
Specialty Workshops dive deep into technical and industry-specific challenges, guiding strategic standard development.
Personnel Certification: Programs such as the Metal PBF-LB Machine Operator Certification ensure individuals meet proficiency benchmarks in key AM roles.
Manufacturer Certification
The ASTM AM Certification Program offers a unified, standards-based framework to evaluate and qualify AM providers across sectors. Built on ISO/ASTM 52901, 52904, and 52920, the program enables manufacturers to:
Demonstrate AM-specific process readiness
Reduce redundant audits through a flexible, multi-sectoral model
Gain visibility on a qualified manufacturer list
Align with OEM-led expectations through the Additive Manufacturing Certification Committee (AMCC)
Proficiency Testing
Through its Proficiency Testing Program (PTP), ASTM helps labs and R&D centers improve and benchmark their powder characterization techniques. The program involves:
Biannual testing cycles using commercial metal powders
Assessment of properties like flow rate, apparent density, and particle size
Alignment with ASTM test methods
Support for lab accreditation and customer confidence
Strategic Research and the R2S Roadmap
The AM CoE’s Research to Standardization (R2S) initiative accelerates standards development by aligning R&D projects with clearly identified gaps across the AM landscape. Priorities are shaped by ASTM members, the Additive Manufacturing Standardization Collaborative (AMSC), and industry stakeholders.
Projects span critical topics including:
In-situ defect detection
Powder cleanliness and moisture sensitivity
PBF process qualification and interruption recovery
Data formats, design guides, post-processing, and fatigue testing
All R2S research is targeted toward actionable outcomes: improved test methods, reference data sets, and the foundations for new or updated standards.
CMDS: Consortium for Materials Data and Standardization
The CMDS brings together AM stakeholders to create robust, high-quality materials datasets that are foundational to qualification, certification, and predictive modeling.
Key outcomes include:
Shared, machine-agnostic “reference” datasets
Defined best practices for AM data generation and curation
FAIR-aligned data infrastructure
Integration with F42 committee efforts and standards development
CMDS empowers AM stakeholders to reduce variability, support AI/ML-driven qualification, and accelerate materials innovation across platforms.
