CAD TO METAL
Arcam's method considerably shortens the product development process
With Arcam's method a metallic object is produced directly from metal
powder.
During the CAD to Metal process, an electron
beam melts metal powder in a layer-by-layer process to build the physical
part. The Arcam EBM machines use a powder bed configuration and are capable
of producing multiple parts in the same build.
1. The part is designed in a 3D
CAD programme.
2. The part is built up in the Electron
Beam Melting (EBM) process.
3. The result is a solid metal part.

ELECTRON BEAM MELTING
The Electron Beam Melting (EBM) process is efficient and provide access to
hight power to melt the metal.
The need for faster and shorter
processes is continuously increasing and in this development process,
Arcam's technology plays an essential part.
Arcam's method for manufacturing metal objects directly from a CAD
model provides a great opportunity for faster development and
manufacturing processes.
MATERIALS
Arcam presently offer the
following materials for the EBM process:
• Ti6Al4V (ASTM F136)
• Ti6Al4V ELI (ASTM F136)
• CoCr Alloy (ASTM F75)
