ASME Y14.46 – Product Definition for Additive Manufacturing

This Standard covers the definitions of terms and features unique to additive manufacturing (AM) technologies with recommendations for their uniform specification in product definition data and in related documents. Unless otherwise specified, any reference to features, parts, or processes shall be interpreted as applying to parts or assemblies manufactured using an AM process. Additively manufactured parts or assemblies are referred to as “parts” throughout the Standard. The Standard extends to capturing relevant AM detail from design, manufacturing, and quality engineering.
