Additive Manufacturing Consortia
Summary
The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has and participates in various additive manufacturing (AM) consortia. To learn more about these consortia, see below. If you're interested in joining these consortia, or if there is an unmet need in AM that a consortia could help address, please reach out to the contacts below.
Metal Additive Manufacturing Powder Consortium
The Metal Additive Manufacturing Powder (MAMP) Consortium brings together stakeholders to develop deeper understanding of additive manufacturing (AM) metal powder characteristics, metrics, and measurement techniques, and how they affect various AM processes and resultant materials and components.

Additive Construction by Extrusion (ACE) Consortium
The Additive Construction by Extrusion (ACE) Consortium supports efforts to establish the measurement science required for development of the standards and industry for additive construction by extrusion (ACE). The Consortium intends to study the measurement science needs for the successful adoption of ACE by the construction industry, and to identify and propose new standards to address industry needs not met by existing standards.
