This part of the International Standard (Part 4: Data processing), covers the principal considerations which apply to data exchange for additive manufacturing (AM). This document generally outlines the current workflow for AM data exchange processes however these processes are often dictated by the needs of design and fabrication requirements and are rapidly changing at the moment It specifies terms and definitions which enable information to be exchanged describing geometries or parts such that they can be additively manufactured. The data exchange method outlines file type, data enclosed, formatting of such data and what this can be used for. This part of the International Standard - Enables a suitable format for data exchange to be specified - Describes the existing pipeline for additive manufacturing of 3D geometries - Outlines existing file formats used as part of the existing pipeline - Should enable understanding of necessary features for data exchange for adopters of the standard This part of the International Standard is aimed at users and producers of additive fabrication processes and associated software systems. It applies wherever additive processes are used, and to the following fields in particular: . production of additive fabrication systems and equipment including software; . software engineers involved in CAD / CAE systems . reverse engineering systems developers . test bodies wishing to compare requested and actual geometries
