This document deals with all significant hazards, hazardous situations or hazardous events during all phases of the life of the machine (ISO 12100:2010, 5.4), as listed in Annex A, caused by AM machines using a bed of metallic powder and a laser when used as intended and under conditions of misuse which are reasonably foreseeable by the manufacturer.

This document does not deal with hazards which can occur:

• - during the design and construction phase of the laser beam powder ped fusion (PBF-LB) machine itself;
• - operating in potentially explosive atmospheres.

This document does not apply to technologies other than AM metals PBF-LB.
