Arcam’s CoCr process benefits the orthopedic industry

Arcam announced its CoCr process for Arcam Q10plus at the Formnext show in Frankfurt  this week.

CoCr, together with titanium, is the prime material for the orthopedic industry and it is a commonly used material in the aerospace industry. The CoCr process provides parts with high resolution, production level productivity and impeccable material properties. The process is supported by an animal study by Gothenburg University, showing bone interaction with CoCr.

The newly released Arcam Q10plus is the latest iteration of Arcam’s EBM technology, providing important features facilitating efficient manufacturing, such as:

-Arcam xQam – an innovative X-ray based detection system for automatic calibration and improved beam control.

-EBM Control 5.0 – an all-new software platform adding functionality for more efficient and accurate beam control as well as new melt strategies, improving build speed and precision.

-MultiBeam – Arcam’s proprietary technology for parallel melting.
