Additive manufacturing — Data — Data packages for AM parts
Scope: This document specifies the methods, parameter sets and models to develop and utilize a data package for a part created using AM technologies (AM part). This document is applicable to the information requirements associated with workflow of the fabrication of an AM part, from design to acceptance. Peripheral information related to entities such as organization, facility, operator, security, and others is addressed for sake of completeness; but is not the focus of this document and can be defined elsewhere. This document provides the means to develop an organizational or application-specific data package for the communication between and amongst the designer, the manufacturer, and all acceptance authorities, among other potential stakeholders.
This document does not impose a plan of execution to produce an AM part, though a digital thread is provided to establish a referenceable information workflow.
The requirements set forth in this document are based on the fabrication of a part using the PBF-LB/M (powder bed fusion-laser based/metal) process. While specific details directly relate to PBF-LB/M, generalized workflow requirements can be related to any AM process.

Reference conditions and procedures for testing industrial and process measurement transmitters - Part 1: General procedures for all types of transmitters
Scope: IEC 62828-1:2026 establishes a general framework for defining reference conditions and test procedures applicable for assessing the measurement performances of all types of industrial and process measurement transmitters (PMTs) used in measuring and control systems for industrial process and machinery. For the purpose of this document, an analogue PMT is a process measurement transmitter with only analogue current and/or voltage output(s), irrespective the technology adopted and the complexity of the circuitry. All the other process measurement transmitters, with digital output(s) only or with hybrid analogue and digital output(s), are considered to be digital PMTs. This document constitutes a common reference for the other parts of the IEC 62828 series. Specific test procedures and additional requirements for given types of PMTs (pressure, temperature, level, flow, etc.) are covered by other parts of this series. Sensing devices according to the IEC 60947 series are excluded from the scope of this document.
NOTE 1 In industrial and process applications, to indicate the process measurement transmitters, it is common also to use the terms "industrial transmitters", or "process transmitters".
NOTE 2 For better clarity, when the complete definition "industrial and process measurement transmitter" makes the sentence too long in this document, the short term "transmitter", or PMT, is used instead.
This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition published in 2017. This edition constitutes a technical revision.
This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition:
a) informative Annexes E, F, G and H have been removed;
b) a new informative Annex G “Example of signal current for a 4 mA to 20 mA PMT” has been introduced (it has been moved from IEC 62828-2:2017 to this document);
c) the definitions of warm-up time, settling time and output signal have been moved from IEC 62828-4:2020 to this document;
d) The definitions of “inaccuracy” and “accuracy” have been reworked;
e) The clause regarding test report has been reworked.

Electric motor-operated hand-held tools, transportable tools and lawn and garden machinery - Safety - Part 4-12: Particular requirements for robotic lawnmowers
Scope: This International Standard deals with the safety of
– electric motor-operated or magnetically driven rechargeable battery-powered rotary robotic lawnmowers;
– their batteries; and
– their peripherals.
Robotic lawnmowers are also referred to as “machines” in this document.
The maximum rated voltage for machines and their battery packs is 250 V d.c.
The rated voltage for peripherals is not more than
– 250 V single-phase a.c. or d.c.; and
– 480 V for three-phase a.c.
This document deals with the hazards presented by machines and peripherals which are encountered by all persons in the normal use and reasonably foreseeable misuse of the machines and peripherals.
When evaluating a rechargeable battery for protection against electric shock during charging, creepage distances, clearances and distances through insulation, the relevant requirements of this document are applicable with the battery fitted to the intended charger.
Since rechargeable battery packs for machines and peripherals are submitted to different use patterns (such as rough use, high charging and discharging currents) their safety can be evaluated only by this document and not by using other standards for rechargeable battery packs, such as IEC 62133-1:2017 or IEC 62133-2:2017, unless otherwise indicated in this document. All relevant aspects related to the safety of rechargeable batteries are addressed in this document, such that the requirements of IEC 62133-1:2017 or IEC 62133-2:2017 need not be separately applied.
When evaluating the risk of fire associated with rechargeable battery packs for machines and peripherals, consideration has been given to the fact that these battery packs are unattended energy sources and have been evaluated as such in this document. Requirements in other standards regarding the risk of fire due to the charging of these battery packs are therefore considered to be fulfilled.
This document also addresses requirements covering the use of lithium-ion cells employed in battery systems in robotic lawnmowers and battery-powered peripherals. The following is considered within the context of these requirements:
– These requirements address the risk of fire or explosion of these batteries and not any possible hazards associated with toxicity nor potential hazards associated with transportation or disposal.
NOTE 1 IEC 62281:2019 covers the safety aspects of lithium-ion batteries during transport.
– Battery systems covered by these requirements are not intended to be serviced by the end user.
– These requirements are intended to provide comprehensive evaluation of a battery only if used in products covered by this document.
– These requirements address the safety of lithium-ion battery systems during storage and use including discharge and charge. These requirements are only considered to be supplementary requirements in regards to battery charger fire and electric shock.
– These requirements refer to and require parameters supplied in reference to the cells that establish conditions for safe use of those cells. Those parameters form the basis of acceptance criteria for a number of tests contained herein. This document does not independently evaluate the safety of cells. These parameters, taken as a set, constitute the “Specified Operating Region” for a cell. There may be several sets of specified operating region(s).
Mains-powered circuits for battery charging, preheating or other non-motor functions are covered under Annex GG.
This document does not apply to robotic lawnmowers using general purpose batteries installed by the user and this document alone will not be sufficient to ensure all hazards are considered for these products.
This document does not apply to battery-powered peripherals powered by rechargeable general purpose batteries.
This document does not apply to the safety of battery chargers themselves.
NOTE 2 IEC 60335-2-29 covers a variety of chargers. The IEC 61558 series covers transformers and power supplies.
