RenAM 500Q
RenAM 500Q: faster and more cost-effective without compromising on quality.
RenAM 500Q metal additive manufacturing (AM) system
Renishaw's RenAM 500Q makes cost-effective volume production a reality. With four lasers in a compact machine footprint, you can increase your capacity without increasing factory size.
The RenAM 500Q has exceptional laser density on the powder bed, at 64 lasers per square metre. Our high productivity multi-laser system is ideal for manufacturers looking to produce top-quality components, at a lower cost per part.
Why choose the RenAM 500Q?
- Faster: With four 500 W lasers that can address the entire powder bed, automatic powder recycling and patented vacuum atmosphere preparation, the RenAM 500Q can build up to 150 cc/hour.
- Cost-effective: The compact footprint of the RenAM 500 series delivers standout cost savings for metal component volume production.
- Quality: Produce consistent and repeatable part quality, with unrivalled detail and precision. We can achieve 99.9% density, maximised strength and ductility across the whole build plate.
Case studies
Rapid prototyping expert uses Renishaw AM systems to develop hypersonic technology for aerospace
The development of spacecraft has always been reliant on new and advanced technologies. AM gives aerospace engineers the design freedom and rapid prototyping capabilities required to develop new parts for satellites, while meeting the strict requirements of the aerospace industry. So, when aerospace venture capital startup Velontra looked to develop a hypersonic propulsion system for space applications, it turned to Innovative 3D Manufacturing, user of Renishaw's AM systems.
RenAM 500Q powers mass production of medical components for Permedica
For many years, the medical industry has used additive manufacturing (AM) to develop low volume parts, such as medical prototypes, bespoke implants and surgical implants and aids. Global engineering technologies company, Renishaw, has collaborated with medical devices specialist, Permedica, to develop AM processes for the mass production of medical components in the healthcare industry, driving industry innovation.
