This one-day workshop will allow attendees to understand how standards impact the industrialization of AM and how you can leverage the standards for various AM applications across different industry sectors.

The workshop will be held on Monday, November 15th, 2021, in conjunction with Formnext, Frankfurt, and the event is jointly organized by ASTM International, US Commercial Service, and ISO.

The workshop format is structured with two keynotes, six regular presentations, two panel discussions, and two break-out sessions. The keynote session focuses on the status of AM standards development and the general industry perspective on the use of AM standards. The six presentations from industry experts cover the impact of standards in the advanced topics in AM such as Digitalization, Big Data, AM automation, Rapid Qualification and Certification, and how standards drive the adoption of AM in different industry sectors.

The two panels in the workshop open up discussions on two key topics; AM Industrialization, and standardization challenges, with panelists representing organizations who are heavily using AM for end-use part production and members from International /national standard development organizations. There are two Break-out sessions in the workshop where participants can share their perspectives and do a deep dive into industry-specific needs for AM standards with a particular emphasis on automotive, Construction, Oil &Gas, Energy, and maritime sectors.
