Tech helps achieves up to 50 per cent reduction in AM build times

Renishaw has introduced its TEMPUS technology, enables users of RenAM 500 series metal additive manufacturing (AM) systems to reduce build times by up to 50 per cent.
The technology uses advanced scanning algorithms that sequence the layer data in a way that maximizes productivity while maintaining part quality. The optimization suits some part geometries more than others, but all geometries can see some productivity benefits. Parts with thin, vertical features, for example, are likely to experience proportionally higher productivity savings.
The technology is standard with the new RenAM 500 Ultra system, as well as advanced process monitoring software. The patented technology employs seamless communication between advanced software and hardware components to synchronize the system lasers with the powder recoater, removing up to nine seconds of build time from every layer. With builds frequently containing thousands of layers, this can reduce total build times by tens of hours. Yet crucially, there is no reduction in part quality.
