? Additive manufacturing (AM), noun �C process of
joining materials to make objects from 3D model
data, usually layer upon layer, as opposed to
subtractive manufacturing methodologies.
? Synonyms: additive fabrication, additive processes, additive techniques,
additive layer manufacturing, layer manufacturing and freeform
fabrication.
? Rapid prototyping, noun �C additive manufacturing of a
design, often iterative, for form, fit or functional
testing or combination thereof.
2

? As an Enabling Technology AM is used in a
broad spectrum of manufacturing.
? Some applications of this technology
include:
3

T.E.A.M. is a collaboration of two NSF funded Advanced
Technological Education Centers and a
Professional Organization
? The National Resource Center for Materials
Technology Education;
? National Center for RapidTechnologies; and
? ASTM
? Develop Additive Manufacturing (AM) core competencies and
curriculum, based on emerging Global AM Standards.
9

? Goal 1:
? To facilitate creation of Additive Manufacturing
core competencies and to develop uniform
instructional elements and focused educational
and training outcomes,T.E.A.M. will lend its
knowledge and expertise to support F42 and its
stakeholders in the development of Global
Additive Manufacturing Standards.
10

? Goal 2:
? To improve technician education training
programs and to increase student career eligibility
(employability/progression),T.E.A.M. will provide
tools, expertise and a documented process model
that integrates core competencies and relevant
derivatives into manufacturing technician
programs, aligned with the emergence of
standards in real time.
11

? How will this information be shared?
? Dissemination of the core competencies and
curriculum through professional development
opportunities, websites, conferences, professional
organizations and appropriate publications.
? ASTM F42 Technical Committee �C over 120
members globally.
12

? American Society for Testing and Materials
International (ASTM)
? Is one of the largest voluntary standards
developing organizations in the world.
? ASTM��s strength is in developing and publishing
standards based on a proven process.
13

? Facilitate the development of full-consensus Global
Standards for Additive Manufacturing Technologies
through F42.
? Assist with publishing and disseminating a complete
set of Additive Manufacturing Standards.
? Connect stakeholders input and review
of competencies for validation.
