Why EBM (Electron Beam Melting) technology?

High assembly speed and material variety

From precise prototypes to series production, we offer you first-class solutions.

Electron Beam Melting (EBM) technology enables us to produce high-quality components by melting metal powder with an electron beam. The metal powder is applied in layers and melted with the electron beam to form precise and complex components. This innovative technology offers you an efficient and cost-effective solution for the production of high-temperature resistant, crack-prone materials. With EBM, you can achieve outstanding quality and accuracy in a short time.

Advantages of EBM technology

Fast assembly and variety of materials

Advantage Why you should use EMB
High precision EBM enables you to achieve exceptional accuracy and precision in the production of metal components.
. Fast production Thanks to the efficient melting technology, components can be produced quickly and in a short time.
Complex geometries EBM enables the production of highly complex geometric shapes and structures that are difficult to realize with conventional processes.
Variety of materials EBM technology is versatile and enables the processing of high-temperature resistant, crack-prone metal materials.
Cost optimization Production costs can be significantly reduced with EBM, as material loss is minimized and post-processing steps can be reduced.
Component strength EBM components are characterized by high strength and stability, which makes them suitable for demanding applications.
Low voltage Due to processing at temperatures of up to 1000°C, residual stresses are avoided by the process and therefore materials that are particularly difficult to process can be produced.
Avoidance of support contours The vacuum process and the high process temperatures mean that parts can be stacked tightly and the need for supports is limited or eliminated.
Sustainability EBM technology enables resource-saving production, as material is reused and waste is minimized.
Wide range of applications EBM is used in various industries such as aerospace, medical technology and the automotive industry, to name but a few.
