CEN/TC 438 Additive Manufacturing
European Norm
25.030 Additive manufacturing
Draft
This document specifies a standardized level framework for the implementation of additive manufacturing to support temporary self-sufficient systems. It defines principles and criteria, from a resource perspective (personnel, training, infrastructure, materials, etc.) and provides guidance for categorizing additive manufacturing processes into different levels to support self-sufficient systems (ships, small islands, oil rigs, etc.). Support can be established through onboard and onshore operation. This covers the complete part cycle from design (if applicable), manufacturing, to a finished part that meets requirements.
It aims to provide clarity and consistency for non-AM experts dealing with logistical support of self-sufficient systems.
This document is applicable to industries, military institutions, research institutions, and regulatory bodies involved in additive manufacturing, facilitating interoperability and harmonization of practices across different stakeholders.
