Electron Beam Melting (EBM) machines

EBM machines from Arcam EBM create dimensionally accurate parts quickly and efficiently by utilizing a high-power electron beam for high melting capacity and productivity. The Arcam EBM process takes place in vacuum and at high temperature, resulting in stress-relieved components with material properties better than cast and comparable to wrought material.

Arcam EBM Q10plus

The Arcam EBM Q10plus is our electron beam machine originally designed for cost-efficient production of orthopedic implants. It has a small footprint and features a high resolution an optimized surface finish.

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

The machine includes Arcam EBM xQam™ technology for high precision autocalibration, a powerful software platform and electronics for efficient and accurate beam control.

The Arcam EBM Q10plus has Arcam EBM LayerQam™, our camera-based monitoring system for inline part quality verification. The Arcam EBM Q10plus is delivered with a powder recovery system for efficient powder handling.
