This is the third workshop jointly organized by the FAA and Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL) on Qualification and Certification of Additively Manufactured Parts, building upon the objectives met in the second workshop held from August 30-September 1, 2016, which included providing additional training and reference material on additive manufacturing processes to FAA employees, benchmark qualification and certification considerations across the regulatory agencies, and promoting collaboration both across government/academia/industry and within the FAA regarding qualification and certification of additively manufactured parts. Last year’s workshop consisted of 33 presentations addressing background, past and present programs, and qualification/certification challenges regarding additively manufactured metal parts. The sustained, high interest in additive manufacturing and the importance of safe and robust qualification and certification procedures for aerospace parts were illustrated by the filled agenda and enthusiastic participation.
