Additive manufacturing - General principles - Part positioning, coordinates and orientation (ISO 17295:2023)
This document provides specifications and illustrations for the positioning and orientation of parts with regards with coordinate systems and testing methodologies for additive manufacturing (AM) technologies in an effort to standardize the method of representation used by AM users, producers, researchers, educators, press/media, and others, particularly when reporting results from testing of parts made on AM systems. Included specifications cover coordinate systems and the location and orientation of parts. It is intended to be in accordance with the principles of ISO 841 and to clarify the specific adaptation of those principles for additive manufacturing.
Additive Fertigung - Grundsätze - Positionierung, Koordinaten und Ausrichtung des Bauteils (ISO 17295:2023)
Dieses Dokument stellt Spezifikationen und Darstellungen für die Positionierung und Ausrichtung von Bauteilen in Koordinatensystemen und Prüfverfahren für Technologien der additiven Fertigung (AM, en: additive manufacturing) bereit. Das Ziel ist es, auf diese Weise das von AM-Anwendern, Herstellern, Forschern, Lehrern, der Presse/den Medien und anderen verwendete Darstellungsverfahren zu normen, besonders bei einer Berichterstattung über die Resultate der Prüfungen von Bauteilen, die aus AM-Systemen erzeugt wurden. Auch die Bezeichnungen für Koordinatensysteme sowie die Position und die Ausrichtung der Bauteile sind mit inbegriffen. Es ist vorgesehen, dass diese Grundsätze möglichst ISO 841 entsprechen und die spezifische Adaption dieser Grundsätze für die additive Fertigung verdeutlichen.

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular, the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives).Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details of
any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or
on the ISO list of patent declarations received (see www.iso.org/patents).Any trade name used in this document is information given for the convenience of users and does not

expressions related to conformity assessment, as well as information about ISO's adherence to
the World Trade Organization (WTO) principles in the Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT), see

the European Committee for Standardization (CEN) Technical Committee CEN/TC 438, Additive
manufacturing, in accordance with the Agreement on technical cooperation between ISO and CEN
(Vienna Agreement).The first edition of ISO 17295 cancels and replaces ISO/ASTM 52921:2013, which has been technically
revised.The main changes are as follows:
— terms and definitions that are included in ISO/ASTM 52900 have been removed from this document
and instead referred to ISO/ASTM 52900;— since the list of terms and definitions have been removed from this edition, it is therefore not a
standard terminology anymore, and therefore it has been renamed so that the title describes the
actual content of the standard;— the remaining normative content of the document including the annex have been consolidated into
one single normative document;— specifications of some aspects of initial build orientation and orthogonal orientation notation have
been integrated in the text body of the document.Any feedback or questions on this document should be directed to the user’s national standards body. A

Introduction
Although many additive manufacturing systems are based heavily upon the principles of computer
numerical control (CNC), the coordinate systems and nomenclature specific to CNC are not sufficient to
be applicable across the full spectrum of additive manufacturing equipment. This document expands
upon the principles of ISO 841 and applies them specifically to additive manufacturing.

4 Coordinate systems for additive manufacturing machines with different build
directions
The location and orientation of a part within the build volume shall be specified using coordinates in a
three-dimensional coordinate system. The coordinate system can be Cartisian or otherwise defined by
the machine manufacturer. Examples of different types of coordinate systems are illustrated in Figures
1, 2 and 3.4.1 Coordinate system for additive manufacturing with upwards z-positive build
direction
A three-dimesnional Cartesian coordinate system located at the build origin for a generic additive
manufacturing process using upwards z-positive building direction, is illustrated as seen from the front
of the machine in Figure 1. This is the most common type of coordinate system and is used for processes
within all defined additive manufacturing process categories, though other types of coordinate systems
can be used for specific process solutions within some process categories.© ISO/ASTM International 2019 – All rights reserved 1
