The Arcam EBM Q10plus is the established machine for volume production of medical implants, especially hip cups. This session will present a part-cost case for hip cups and draw a comparison with other powder bed fusion technologies. In addition, a new software tool that analyzes build performance of the Q10plus will even further improve productivity and the insight from the first customers using the tool will be shared. We will also explore how the new powder handling system can improve hip cup production.
