Abstract
The main objective of ISO/TC 261 is to standardize the processes of Additive Manufacturing, the process chains (Data, Materials, Processes, Hard- and Software, Applications), test procedures, quality parameters, supply agreements, environment, health and safety, fundamentals and vocabularies. This section provides readers with news regarding standardisation efforts of ISO/TC 261. Further up-to-date information regarding recently published documents, such as new standards, revised standards, the status of standards can be found in the ISO/TC261 webpages: https://www.iso.org/committee/629086.html and from the committee webpages: https://committee.iso.org/sites/tc261/home/news.html.

1 New projects
ISO/ASTM PWI “Additive manufacturing – Environment, health and safety – Qualification principles for life cycle assessment of parts and processes” registered as a preliminary work item and assigned to ISO/TC 261/WG 6 with a mature document for ISO/NP-ballot and ASTM F42.06 Sub-Committee Ballot due until the beginning of April 2024.
2 Project updates
None.
3 Project stage updates
ISO/ASTM 52957 “Additive Manufacturing—Design—Parts using ceramic materials” will skip the CD-stage and to be registered as stage code 30.99 “CD approved for registration as DIS”.
4 Project extensions
None.
5 Revisions
ISO/ASTM 52909:2022 “Additive manufacturing of metals—Finished part properties—Orientation and location dependence of mechanical properties for metal powder bed fusion” will have a minor revision without any changes to the scope and without any changes to the technical content. Changes the title to “Additive manufacturing of metals—Finished part properties—Orientation and location dependence of mechanical properties for metal parts”.
6 Change of name and scope/merging of projects
Merger of ISO/TC 261/JG 61 “Mechanical properties characterization of additively manufactured metallic materials” and JG 76 “Revision of ISO 17296-3 & ASTM F3122-14” under the lead of JG 76. ISO/TC 261 merges JG 61 and JG 76 under the lead of JG 76, renames JG 76 to “Mechanical test methods”, and changes the scope to: Standardization in the field of mechanical test methods that are used to determine the properties for additively manufactured materials. It includes metallic, polymer and ceramic materials.
