Materialise partnered with Arcam to create the Arcam Build Processor, which will be launched in coming weeks. With the Build Processor, users can avoid the large STL data stage by employing a compact file format and slice-based operations. The  Materialise slicing technology allows easy handling of these complex designs.
In addition, two-way communication between the printer and the software, facilitated by Streamics, the Build Processor does not just tell the printer what to do, it can also pick up feedback from the printer, which enables the tracing and storage of data on specific jobs. This provides a controlled 3D printing environment.
For almost 25 years, Materialise has been at the forefront of major innovations in 3D surgical planning based on medical images.
Arcam provides a cost-efficient Additive Manufacturing solution for implant production, and its EBM® technology is used to produce FDA-cleared and CE Marked orthopaedic implants.
