American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
  • Professional association of mechanical engineers in the USA
  • The world's leading standards setter in mechanical engineering
  • The ASME regulations are a must-have for international business

  • The ASME regulations are drawn up by the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), the professional association of mechanical engineers in the USA. This association, which has over 140,000 members, develops, reviews and updates standards and technical regulations in the field of mechanical engineering.

  • The ASME regulations formulate requirements for systems, components and materials for steam and heating boilers, pipelines, pressure vessels, fittings and nuclear components. ASME certification is regularly audited and guarantees quality standards. ASME standards are used worldwide.

  • The ASME regulations are particularly indispensable for mechanical and plant engineering companies exporting to the USA. Other users include manufacturing and supplying companies, as well as distributors and operators of

    plant
    equipment parts
    pipelines
    boilers
    steam appliances
    pressure vessels

    The ASME regulations are used in areas such as aircraft construction, materials technology, nanotechnology, (nuclear) power plant technology, railroad technology, pressure vessel and piping technology.
