ASTM International and America Makes to Hold Dec. 9 Workshop on Additive-Manufacturing Data
The ASTM International Additive Manufacturing Center of Excellence and America Makes will jointly launch ASTM’s first Specialty Workshop Series on Additive Manufacturing Data Management and Schema on Dec. 9 in the Washington, D.C., area.
W. CONSHOHOCKEN, Pa., Nov. 19, 2019 — The ASTM International Additive Manufacturing Center of Excellence and America Makes will jointly launch ASTM's first Specialty Workshop Series on Additive Manufacturing Data Management and Schema on Dec. 9 in the Washington, D.C., area.
"It's important to know that additive manufacturing is being developed in the age of data," said Mahdi Jamshidinia, Ph.D., ASTM International's additive manufacturing R&D project manager. "Overall, we need new methodologies and standards to build an ecosystem in which AM data can easily and securely be generated, stored, analyzed, and shared,"
"Recent advances such as digital data acquisition, automation, data analysis, and data sharing have the potential to dramatically accelerate growth and innovation in AM," says, Alex Kitt, Ph.D., product manager for EWI, adding that consistency of data across various groups is also an issue that must be addressed.
According to Brandon Ribic, Ph.D., technology director for America Makes, full utilization of data in AM can support several applications such as data-enabled material screening, build monitoring, post-build characterization, process qualification, part certification, and data security.
Government, industry, and academic representatives will attend the event, which will specifically address AM data generation and pedigree, advanced data-driven approaches in AM, and AM database and data management systems. The event takes place at the Sheraton Tysons Hotel in Vienna, Va.

Featured Product
Model TR1 Tru-Trac
The Model TR1 Tru-Trac® linear measurement solution is a versatile option for tracking velocity, position, or distance over a wide variety of surfaces. An integrated encoder, measuring wheel, and spring-loaded torsion arm in one, compact unit, the Model TR1 is easy to install. The spring-loaded torsion arm offers adjustable torsion load, allowing the Model TR1 to be mounted in almost any orientation - even upside-down. The threaded shaft on the pivot axis is field reversible, providing mounting access from either side. With operating speeds up to 3000 feet per minute, a wide variety of configuration options - including multiple wheel material options - and a housing made from a durable, conductive composite material that minimizes static buildup, the Model TR1 Tru-Trac® is the ideal solution for countless applications.
