EBM® - Electron Beam Melting
•
The electron beam gun generates a
high energy beam (up to 3.000 W)
•
The beam melts each layer of powder
metal to the desired geometry
•
Extremely fast beam translation with
no moving parts
•
High beam power -> high melt rate
(up to 80 cm3/h) and productivity
•
Vacuum process -> eliminates impurities
and yields excellent material properties
•
High process temperature (650 ºC
for titanium) -> low residual stress
and no need for heat treatment

Production Benefits
•
Single-step production of solid and porous sections,
with structural continuity between them
•
All-porous implants possible (augments, wedges, …)
•
High process temperature gives low residual stress,
and no need for heat treatment after the build
•
No secondary high temperature process to apply the
porous structure that could cause grain growth

Arcam LayerQam™
•
Camera-based quality verification system
•
Additive Manufacturing provides a new melted surface for each layer
•
The melting depth is thicker than the powder layer
•
Camera-based monitoring of each melted layer provides porosity
control of the entire produced part
•
Monitoring each layer hence provides a unique capability to verify
the full density of EBM-produced implants
