MedTech

As the global population becomes older and healthier, the need for improved efficiency in healthcare increases, driving demand for advanced products with enhanced lifetime and comfort. Titanium orthopedic implants is one application where additive manufacturing (AM) is transforming the MedTech industry.

AM enables the creation of implants with intricate geometries and porous structures, leading to lighter implants with improved bone ingrowth, superior fit and function, less complications, and faster recovery times.


Within AM, Freemelt’s E-PBF (Electron Beam Powder Bed Fusion) technology is extra efficient. Operating at elevated temperatures, the process significantly reduces residual stress and enables the stacking of implants. This optimizes build volume utilization and increases productivity. The vacuum environment minimizes oxygen pick-up and contamination risk, preserving powder quality and extending powder reuse.

With a compact build volume (Ø100 mm × 300 mm) specifically suited for implants, e-MELT® delivers increased output per square meter. Its modular design, with interchangeable build modules and a separate turnaround station, ensures a streamlined, ergonomic workflow that supports safe and efficient serial production.
