Määräpäivä: 2026-07-23
This part of EN 843 specifies methods for determining the elastic moduli, specifically Young’s modulus, shear modulus and Poisson’s ratio, of advanced monolithic technical ceramics at room temperature. This European Standard prescribes four alternative methods for determining some or all of these three parameters:
A The determination of Young’s modulus by static flexure of a thin beam in three- or four-point flexure.
B The determination of Young’s modulus by forced longitudinal resonance, or Young’s modulus, shear modulus and Poisson’s ratio by forced flexural and torsional resonance, of a thin beam.
C The determination of Young’s modulus, shear modulus and Poisson’s ratio from the time-of-flight of an ultrasonic pulse.
D The determination of Young’s modulus from the fundamental natural frequency of a struck bar (impulse excitation method).
All the test methods assume the use of homogeneous test pieces of linear elastic materials.
NOTE 1 Not all ceramic materials are equally and linearly elastic in tension and compression, such as some porous materials and some piezoelectric materials.
With the exception of Method C, the test assumes that the test piece has isotropic elastic properties. Method C may be used to determine the degree of anisotropy by testing in different orientations.
NOTE 2 An ultrasonic method for dealing with anisotropic materials (ceramic matrix composites) can be found in
ENV 14186 (see Bibliography). An alternative to Method D for isotropic materials using disc test pieces is given in
Annex A.
NOTE 3 At high porosity levels all of the methods except Method C can become inappropriate. The methods are only suitable for a maximum grain size (see EN 623-3), excluding deliberately added whiskers, of less than 10 % of the minimum dimension of the test piece.
NOTE 4 The different methods given in this European Standard can produce slightly different results on the same material owing to differences between quasi-isothermal quasi-static an

This document is applicable to the design, information for use, maintenance and testing of power-driven winches for which the prime mover is an electric motor, hydraulic motor, or pneumatic motor.

Generally, a winch is used without any additional transport movement, except in cases where a winch is used on a stranded vehicle for self-recovery of the vehicle.
Applications of winches covered are for example, but not limited to:
a) rope winches;
b) belt winches, except steel belts used as pulling media;
c) traction winches, including double capstan and traction sheave winches.
These types of winches a) to c) also include the following specific applications:

This document identifies common failure modes, which can occur within operations across additive manufacturing (AM) process categories defined in ISO/ASTM 52900. It lists state-of-the-art failure modes, which can lead to risks within AM parts and equipment, as well as providing informative examples of corresponding failure effects and mitigation actions.
This document can be used to aid manufacturers in their risk management. While doing so it supports the implementation of AM as a production method within critical applications and regulated industries. This document helps to address the requirements for risk management set by regulated industries for part and production method compliance.
Technology specific failure modes will be addressed in separate standards, including but not limited to PBF-LB/M, PBF-LB/P, MEX, MJT, BJT, and DED.
This document aims to close the existing gap between general risk management standards, such as ISO 31000 or ISO 14971 (medical), and the know-how gap of existing failure modes of the AM process category and their integrated workflow.
The standard maps risks according to AM processes defined within ISO/ASTM 52920.
This document does not cover environment, health and safety risks and will not measure, assess, or evaluate the risk impact on the AM part to be produced. It does not list the part specific input and output parameters, during the respective process steps. This task is dedicated to the risk management evaluation teams, which usually comprise quality managers and product domain specific experts.
The document enables all part owners and manufacturers to use it for the risk mapping activities, to support subsequent risk assessments, continuous improvement, validation planning, estimation of manufacturing efforts, and conformity audits.
For risk examples that are relevant only to specific AM machinery brands, manufacturers might consider use of the informative annex.

This document defines the rules to be applied for symbolic representation of welded joints on technical drawings. This can include information about the geometry, manufacture, quality and testing of the welds. The principles of this document can also be applied to soldered and brazed joints.
It is recognized that there are two different approaches in the global market to designate the arrow side and other side on drawings. In this document:
— clauses, tables and figures which carry the suffix letter "A" are applicable only to the symbolic representation system based on a dual reference line;
— clauses, tables and figures which carry the suffix letter "B" are applicable only to the symbolic representation system based on a single reference line;
— clauses, tables and figures which do not have the suffix letter "A" or "B" are applicable to both systems.
The symbols shown in this document can be combined with other symbols used on technical drawings, for example to show surface finish requirements.
An alternative designation method is presented which can be used to represent welded joints on drawings by specifying essential design information such as weld dimensions, quality level, etc. The joint preparation and welding process(es) are then determined by the production unit in order to meet the specified requirements.
NOTE Examples given in this document, including dimensions, are illustrative only and are intended to demonstrate the proper application of principles.

This document specifies guidelines and recommendations to be followed prior to carrying out
dimensional measurements on three-dimensional (3D) volumetric X-ray Computed Tomographic (XCT)
images of additive manufacturing (AM) series production parts. It is applicable to cone beam XCT
systems. However, these guidelines and recommendations can easily be transposed to fan beam XCT
systems.
The process to be followed prior to performing dimensional measurement on 3D volumetric XCT
images of AM series production parts, in this standard, is divided into two steps:
Step 1: Quantification of an XCT system performance, in terms of image quality and basic
dimensional measurement accuracy, with a reference object and eventually a Representative Quality
Indicators (RQI), with the specific part (part chosen from the AM series production parts) XCT setting
under certain environmental conditions. This step leads to the determination of the image quality, the
voxel size and the basic dimensional measurement accuracy of an XCT system;
Step 2: Validation of the XCT system compliance, in terms of dimensional measurement accuracy,
with the specific part, with the chosen XCT setting under the specific environmental conditions. This
step leads to a simplified determination of the dimensional measurement uncertainty of each
measurand of the specific part.
If step 1 does not comply with the set requirements, the XCT system cannot be used for step 2.
This document does not claim to provide a definitive method to determine XCT dimensional
measurement accuracy, which, given the complexity of an XCT process, is not yet established. For the
same reason, it is addressed to qualified XCT operators with the support of metrology experts.
This document is dedicated to AM series production parts and its aim is to provide a methodology for
controlling the geometric specificities associated with AM (internal shapes, lattice structures). It is
applicable on parts that are fabricated by any type of AM categories of processes and material
provided the X-ray penetration lengths are sufficient to scan the test part.
These prior quantification and validation processes, which allow dimensional measurements to be carry
out on 3D volumetric XCT images of AM series production parts, are valid for a specific part geometry
in a given material associated with a chosen XCT setting (magnification & XCT acquisition and
reconstruction parameters of the specific part) under specific environmental conditions for the
measurands specified. The quantification and validation processes are reconsidered when different
geometry of the part or material or XCT setting or environmental conditions or measurands are taken
into account.
