Arcam EBM Q10plus

For orthopedic implants, Q10plus's build area is designed to allow for optimal stacking of the most common implant types. The build chamber is developed for easy powder handling and fast turnaround times. The 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 Q10plus features Arcam EBM LayerQam™, our camera-based monitoring system for in-line part quality verification. The Q10plus is delivered with a powder recovery system for efficient powder handling.

Build Performance Analyzer (BPA)

Our Build Performance Analyzer (BPA) is an analytics software that combines machine behavior, EBM physics and domain system knowledge into an in-depth analysis to give users a quick and easy understanding of performance of each build job.


• Analyzes performance of key machine and process sub-systems, such as vacuum, beam, powder distribution and auxiliary units (such as chiller)
• Quickly assesses severity through simple red-yellow-green indicators
• Diagnoses root cause for failed or aborted builds
• Provides recommendations for the user to mitigate the diagnosed issues
• Offers detailed plot views and statistical summaries for further analysis
• Tracks actions taken
• Generates reports and analyzes historic build
