| Abstract Scope |
The Metallic Materials Properties Development and Standardization (MMPDS) Handbook, Volume II was released in July of 2024 to provide a framework for adoption of additively manufactured (AM) materials. The MMPDS approach is closely aligned with the qualification framework in the SAE specifications AMS7003 and AMS7032. This paper will present the progress of a first-of-a-kind statistical materials allowable development program for the nickel-based superalloy Alloy ABDŽ-900AM. Unique to this program, which aims to be the first alloy of its type to achieve MMPDS Vol II approval, is the application across multiple AM machine platforms and sites including a wide range of key process variables such as laser power, layer thickness, and heat-treatment as well as high-temperature design data to enable wide industry adoption. This paper will provide an overview of the qualification approach and learnings to date in analyzing the data to achieve statistically significant materials allowables and design data. |
