According to the company’s website, the “Arcam Q10 replaces the Arcam A1 system and has several new features, including an all-new EB gun which allows for both higher productivity and improved resolution.”
One of the most interesting things about Arcam’s new machine, and its business as a whole, is its insistence on developing printers on a use-base model. While most 3D printer manufactures make printers that serve a wide range of industries, Arcam focuses on orthopedics and aerospace.
I’m really intrigued by this model, and it makes me wonder if soon we’ll in a world where 1,000 printer manufacturers make machines for 3,000 different uses?
Whether or not that reality ever comes to be, Arcam is doing something right. In the past year alone, Arcam’s stock has grown from a value of 40 SEK to 285 SEK, a remarkable gain to say the least.
