Having production, R&D, training facilities and support functions all housed under one roof, allows GE Additive to put Lean manufacturing at the heart of its operations to increase production capacity.
As more industrial additive users begin to make the shift to serial production, demand for Arcam EBM systems continues to grow. The new Arcam EBM Center of Excellence with an increased manufacturing footprint and focus on R&D will meet that demand and maps to GE Additive’s continued investment in its facilities in the United States and Europe.
“The Arcam EBM team in Gothenburg is energized to be in its new home – a dynamic, sustainable workplace – in a great location. We will harness that energy and continue to research, innovate and drive EBM technology further,” said Karl Lindblom, general manager GE Additive Arcam EBM.
“Throughout, we have benefitted from GE’s experience and know-how in applying Lean manufacturing. Customers joining our annual user group meeting will be the first to see our Center of Excellence – which we hope will become a focal point for the entire additive industry,” added Lindblom.
