Over a Century of Openness

– Experts, individuals, organizations, academia, governments, trade associations, consultants and consumers come together

– Over 30,000 members from 148 countries

– Established 1898

– Offices in: Washington DC, Brussels, Ottawa, Mexico City, and Beijing

How We Work145main committees

Important. Every Day.

– Ensures safety, quality and reliability

– Built on principle of voluntary consensus: giving everyone an opportunity to participate

– Effective and relevant across diverse markets

– Incorporated into contracts, regulations, codes, and laws around the world; they support established and emerging economies and free and fair global trade.

The Role of ASTM Standards

6,525ASTM standards have been adopted, used as a reference, or usedas the basis of nationalstandards outside the USA

Universal Equality of Opportunity

– Our global outreach activities increase understanding

– The choice for many global industries 50% outside USA

– Embracing all the principles of the World Trade Organization’s Agreement on Technical Barriers to Trade

– Our Memorandum of Understanding

Program provides tangible encouragement to developing economies

– ASTM International’s Smart Manufacturing Advisory Committee (SMAC)– Horizontal

– Cross-Cutting

– Tool for Internal & External Collaboration

Macro Perspective

– ASTM International’s Committee F40 on Declarable Substances in Materials– Multi-National Participation

– Collaboration to Create Solution to EU Directive

– Market Expansion

Micro Perspective

© ASTM International 7

- Smart manufacturing refers to production systems at the equipment, factory, and enterprise levels that integrate cyber and physical systems to enable innovative production, products, and systems of products. Approximately 8 technical committees service some aspect of the smart manufacturing environment with their ASTM activities. This effort intends to create a more formalized structure of coordination and collaboration to share information and identify new opportunities for ASTM standards or programs. Committee D10 on Packaging

Committee E07 on Nondestructive Testing Committee E55 on Manufacture of Pharmaceutical Products

Committee E56 on Nanotechnology

Committee E57 on 3D Imaging Systems

Committee E60 on Sustainability

Committee E62 on Industrial Biotechnology

Committee F42 on Additive Manufacturing Technologies

Committee F45 on Driverless Automatic Guided Industrial Vehicles

Smart Manufacturing Advisory Committee

© ASTM International 8

- Provides a two-way communication vehicle between the advisory committee and the technical committees on standards related activity and other ASTM programs (i.e. credentialing, training, certification, etc.)

- Serves to Identify external stakeholders that might be advantageous to include on the advisory committee whether as regular participants or guest speakers on a given topic Material Handling International (MHI)

Society of chemical Manufacturers and Affiliates (SOCMA)

Object Management Group (OMG)

- Developed a liaison with the newly established Smart Manufacturing Leadership Coalition (SMLC) and the NIST-driven Smart Manufacturing Programs

- Identify new standards or program opportunities for ASTM in the smart manufacturing space

- Organized in 2005- Current Membership = 150+- 11 Countries Represented (Bolivia, Canada, China, Germany,

Korea, Mexico, Netherlands, Pakistan, Singapore, United Kingdom, United States)

- Scope: The development of standards for the evaluation of materials/products relative to RoHS (and similar directives) requirements. The Committee will encourage research in this field and sponsor symposia, workshops, and publications to facilitate the development of such standards. The Committee will promote liaison with other ASTM Committees and other organizations with mutual interests.

What is REACH?

EU Chemicals Regulation

- Registration

- Evaluation

- Authorization and restriction

- Chemicals

Focused on Protection human health + environment

Enhancing competitiveness of EU chemicals industry

12,400Substances 48,000 registrations

What is RoHS and RoHS 2?

EU Regulation

- Restriction

- Of- Hazardous

- Substances (Cd, Cr6+, Hg, Pb, PBB+PBDE)

Prevent the release of hazardous substances into the environment

Ban on heavy metals and other dangerous chemicals in electrical and electronic equipment

RoHS 2: much wider range of products: thermostats, medical devices, cables, control panels

In progress:

- tin-based solder alloys using optical emission spectrometry;

- analysis of heavy metals in glass by field portable X-ray fluorescence (XRF);

- identification and quantification of lead in paint and other coatings using energy dispersive x-ray spectrometry (EDXRF); and

- analysis of tin-based solder alloys for lead, cadmium, mercury, antimony and bismuth (and others) using inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry.
