Benefits of reading the interview:

• Understand how organizations such as ASTM International can help you overcome your certification and standardization challenges
• Ensure that your own manufacturing process remains competitive and able to deliver repeatable and high quality components by achieving standardization of AM parts

In this interview, Mr Seifi answers the following questions:

• What is ASTM International and could you give us some insight into your role as Director of Global AM Programmes?
• Could you give us some background as to how ASTM International supports the aerospace/space industry?
• Why is it important that the certification of parts is standardized across the aerospace/space supply chain?
• What role does ASTM International play in defining quality standards for AM parts? Why is it important to have those set across companies globally?
• How can safety testing maximise the commercial viability of AM parts in the aerospace/space industry?
• What benefits are there for integrating quality screening early for AM parts certification? At what stage of the production process should this begin?
