Powder supply to EBM Systems in 2018
With the present capacity and planned build-out AP&C will reach an atomizing capacity of at least 750 tons per year (end 2017).
750 tons a year.
For what we know, at this moment AP&C delivers 40% of it's production to Arcam Systems, 40 % to SLM Systems, and 20% to business other than 3D printing.
Sales of SLM systems have grown faster than sales of EBM Systems for the last couple of years, and I assume this relation will not change very soon.
For the coming two years It would be logic to aspect the majority of sales of AP&C would be for SLM Systems.
2017; 45% for SLM, 35 – 40% for EBM?
2018; 50% for SLM, 30 – 35% for EBM?
How many EBM Systems could AP&C supply of powder in 2018?
30% of the max capacity of AP&C in 2018 is 225.000 kg of TiAl
One Q20plus system (in full production) needs ca. 2000 kg / year
AP&C could supply 112 Q20plus systems in 2018
