Renishaw

Metal 3D printing systems manufacturer and solutions provider for a wide range of industries worldwide.

Renishaw is one of the world's leading engineering and scientific technology companies, and a leader in the field of additive manufacturing, or metal 3D printing technology. The company supplies products and services used in diverse applications ranging from jet engine and wind turbine manufacturing to dentistry and brain surgery.

Renishaw's Metal Additive Manufacturing Process

Renishaw's metal powder bed fusion is an additive manufacturing technology that uses a high-powered ytterbium fiber laser to fuse fine metallic powders to create functional 3-dimensional components. The technology, however, is still often referred to as layer melting, metal additive manufacturing, metal 3D printing, laser sintering, and metal AM.

The process is digitally driven, direct from sliced 3D CAD data. For each slice of CAD data, a thin layer of fine metal powder is deposited across the build plate, then the selected areas of the powder are precisely melted by the laser. This process is repeated building up, layer by layer until the build is complete.

Renishaw's additive manufacturing systems can build in a range of metals, including titanium alloy Ti6Al4V, cobalt chromium, stainless steel, nickel alloys Inconel 625 and Inconel 718 and aluminum alloy AlSi10Mg.

  • Renishaw AM500Q
    RenAM 500Q
    Renishaw’s first multi-laser additive manufacturing system.

    RenAM 500Q is Renishaw’s multi-laser AM system. With four high power 500 W lasers, each able to access the whole powder bed surface simultaneously, RenAM 500Q achieves build rates up to four times faster than single laser systems.

  • Renishaw Metal 3D Printing Systems
    RenAM 500S
    Advanced single laser AM system with the ability to upgrade to a four laser AM system

    RenAM 500S is part of Renishaw's RenAM 500 series additive manufacturing machines. It is specifically designed for building metal components in a production environment. RenAM 500S can easily be upgraded to become a four-laser system to further benefit from higher build rates, whilst maintaining finished part quality, increased productivity and lowering cost per part.

  • Metal 3D Printers
    AM400
    Flexible additive manufacturing for professional use in a wide range of metals.
    The Renishaw AM 400 is the latest development of the Renishaw AM250 platform. It features the most recent system updates including a larger SafeChange™ filter, improved optical control software, revised gas flow and window protection system and a new 400 W optical system which gives a reduced beam diameter of 70 µm.
  • Additivie Manufacturing
    Ancillaries
    Renishaw provides a complete range of individually specified ancillary equipment to complement and maximize the potential of its advanced additive manufacturing systems.

    The RBV ancillary has been designed to easily fit into Renishaw AM system build volumes, it is quick and easy to install and remove by the user. The RBV enables rapid real-time testing and development of parameters, speeding up material development iterations.
