Arcam at work from We’ve got you covered. With Arcam, you can look forward to a total solution for additive manufacturing designed in every detail to meet your specific production needs. Build Preparation An EBM operator has prepared the Arcam EBM® machine for a new build and selects a Build Project file. T he Build Project file includes the build geometry and all process settings relevant for that build. Machine Preparation An EBM operator prepares a machine by loading two refilled powder containers in to the Arcam EBM® machine. T he EBM operator also positions a new build tank and a start...

Powder Recycling U nmelted powder is removed from the built components by blasting and is sieved for future use. The sieved powder is refilled into new powder containers. Build Removal After an EBM build is completed the closed build tank is moved with a trolley directly to the powder recovery system for powder recycling. Powder Removal After the build tank has been removed, any excess powder is removed with an ATEXclassified vacuum cleaner.

for orthopedic implant manufacturing. The Arcam Q10plus is designed specifically for cost-efficient production of orthopedic implants. The size of the build area is designed to allow for optimal stacking of the most common implant types, and the build chamber interior is developed for easy powder handling and fast turn-around times. The Arcam Q10plus is particularly ideal for the production of high volume press-fit implants with advanced trabecular structures as well as one-off custom implants built with data derived from CT scans of individual patients.

The Arcam EBM® process offers freedom of design, opening up a world of opportunities for product differentiation. Since the process takes place in vaccum and at elevated temperatures, it eliminates residual stress and ensures superior material properties. Higher productivity In addition to enhanced precision and process robustness, Arcam Q10plus offers high productivity. This is made possible by many important new features, including groundbreaking Arcam xQam technology for high precision autocalibration, a powerful new software platform and electronics for efficient and accurate beam...
