About GE Additive

Partnership is the core of what we do and who we are at GE Additive. We offer a suite of products to help you unlock the full potential of additive manufacturing, and we have the world's largest team of additive experts who are uniquely suited to guide your additive journey. So, whatever you design and build, let's work together to show you a new way.

For the Ready

GE Additive – part of GE (NYSE: GE) – is a world leader in metal additive design and manufacturing, a pioneering process that has the power and potential to transform businesses. Through our integrated offering of additive experts, advanced machines, software and quality powders, we empower our customers to build innovative new products. Products that solve manufacturing challenges, improve business outcomes and help change the world for the better. GE Additive includes additive machine brands Concept Laser and Arcam EBM, along with additive powder supplier AP&C.

Arcam EBM

Arcam History

Arcam EBM joined GE Additive in 2017 to further strengthen the additive offering with the unique Electron Beam Melting (EBM) technology, which is ideal for volume production of metal components. Arcam AB was founded in 1997 and delivered the first EBM system in 2003. Today, more than 300 systems are installed worldwide.

EBM Machines

Arcam EBM machines are ideally suited for producing dimensionally accurate parts that need to be created quickly and efficiently. Working in a vacuum using a high-power electron beam for high melting capacity and productivity, the EBM process delivers stress-relieved components with better material properties than casting.

Concept Laser

Concept Laser History

Concept Laser was founded in 2000 and quickly became one of the world’s leading providers of machine and plant technology for 3D printing of metal parts. In December of 2016, Concept Laser joined GE Additive, adding a wide range of DMLM machine sizes to GE’s areas of additive expertise.

DMLM Machines

To create components with complex geometries requiring exceptional precision, Direct Metal Laser Melting (DMLM) is the ideal approach. Our DMLM machines use lasers to melt layers of fine metal powder and create complex geometries with incredible precision directly from a CAD file. Several different machine envelope sizes — including one of the largest powder-bed metal additive systems in the world — are available to meet the needs of any industry.
