With the launch of the RenAM 500 Ultra AM system, Renishaw has expanded its RenAM 500 series, offering a machine that cuts build times up to 50% without compromising quality. This advancement allows metal additive manufacturing (AM) users to produce parts faster.

The RenAM 500 Ultra system includes the existing benefits of the RenAM 500 series, including industry-leading optical, chamber, and gas-flow design, and adds productivity-boosting TEMPUS technology (see sidebar) and advanced process monitoring software.

RenAM 500 Ultra systems come equipped with Renishaw’s process monitoring hardware and software as standard. The sensors collect process data live from every build, with analysis tools for easy monitoring of build quality, reduced post-process inspection costs, and insights into production.

RenAM 500 Ultra systems come with 1-year licenses for InfiniAM Camera and InfiniAM Spectral, and a connection to Renishaw Central.

All RenAM 500 series systems feature:

  • Build chamber vacuum system reducing in-chamber oxygen content, time to produce an inert chamber atmosphere, volume of argon gas used for every build
  • Dual SafeChange particulate filters allowing for uninterrupted large builds
  • Digital control system with intelligent sensing technology
  • Integration with Renishaw’s AM software tools such as QuantAM, InfiniAM, Renishaw Central
  • Processable powders including stainless and tool steels; aluminum, nickel-based, and titanium alloys
  • Compact footprint to maximize factory utilization
