Arcam Cad-To-Metal System From Stratasys Produces Larger Parts (11167)
EBM (Electron Beam Melting) technology, patented by Arcam AB, produces solid metal parts through a patented CAD to Metal(r) process. Parts are built in layers of metal powder, each of which is melted by an electron beam to the geometry defined by the CAD file. Because this process occurs in a high vacuum, parts are completely solid, without imperfections caused by oxidation. The time, cost and challenges of machining or investment casting are eliminated, which makes alloy parts readily available for functional testing or installation. EBM systems manufacture fully dense parts from metal alloys 3-to-5 times faster than other metal additive fabrication systems.
