EBM Materials

Way beyond average

Achieving target material properties is important for any demanding application, and for medical implants and functional parts for aerospace applications it is absolutely essential. Arcam is committed to ensuring first-class mechanical properties on all released materials.

Arcam’s high standard metallurgical properties are verified by static and dynamic testing of mechanical properties, chemical composition and detailed analysis of microstructures.

Arcam has developed the EBM process for the following materials.
