Principios de gestión de la calidad: la base del éxito

En el corazón de la excelencia organizacional se encuentra la gestión de la calidad, un enfoque sistemático que ha transformado la forma en que las empresas operan, compiten y prosperan. Los principios de gestión de la calidad de ISO, desarrollados a lo largo de décadas de especialización colectiva e implementación en el mundo real, sirven como marco fundamental que guía a las organizaciones desde la competencia hasta el máximo desempeño.

ISO and ASTM International unveil framework for creating global additive manufacturing standards

ISO and ASTM International have jointly crafted the Additive Manufacturing Standards Development Structure, a framework which will help meet the needs for new technical standards in this fast-growing field. Additive manufacturing (AM), also known as 3D printing, is the process of joining materials layer upon layer, as opposed to “subtractive manufacturing” methods such as machining.
