About ARCEMY® Education
ARCEMY® EDU is an entry-level Wire-arc Additive Manufacturing system typically used for R&D and university student curriculum purposes. Featuring the smallest footprint of the ARCEMY® range, students and research collaborators will benefit from opportunity to partner with AML3D on the development of future data collection, material development and creation of research papers.
ARCEMY® EDU can support educational institutions that have integrated Additive Manufacturing programs within their syllabus and seek to expand student knowledge using innovative production technology. Perfect for multidisciplinary teams and projects, ARCEMY® EDU pulls together students, researchers, fellows, and teachers across mechanical-, mechatronics-, chemical engineering, material sciences, and design engineering to undertake a broad range of projects.
Study streams and programs may include:
Materials
Expand knowledge, explore metal microstructures, characterisation and test existing materials and develop new-to-world materials. Build parts and provide practical experience.
Modelling
Create novel Industry 4.0 solutions to enhance the end product, develop productivity systems and improve industry competitiveness. Create simulations and create advanced approaches for AM from design to tooling.
Technology
Partner with industry for technology-driven R&D studies for commercial outcomes. Support with product development and supply chain improvements supporting digital transformation and factories of the future.
Design
Create designers and engineers that think additive first. Design for Additive Manufacturing (DfAM) is critical for designers and engineers to understand to optimise parts and products that deliver better performance cost effectively and efficiently.
While ARCEMY® Education can support educational institutions that have integrated Additive Manufacturing programs within their syllabus, the system is also suitable for commercial applications. Featuring a 1520 robotic arm, the system has a 1.5 m reach and a minimum print area of 0.5 m width x 0.5 m long with a maximum print area of 0.9 m wide by 0.9 m long. The system is capable of metal 3D printing parts up to 500 kg in weight, and is suitable for facilities that have limited manufacturing space.

ARCEMY® metal 3D printing systems feature secure remote access capability and proprietary software WAMSoft® and AMLSoftTM as standard inclusions. With an ever-developing roadmap, annual software subscriptions ensure that all ARCEMY®’s are up-to-date and utilising the latest advancements in AML3D’s patented WAM® technology.
Each metal 3D printing system package is provided with installation consulting, commissioning, and face-to-face and online operator training.
Smart Laser Sensor
ARCEMY® offers the latest in intelligent laser sensor technology. With a measuring rate of up to 4kHz and a range of up to 500 mm, the high-precision sensor featured on ARCEMY® ensures stable measurement results while tracking surface regulation. Sensitive to micro-level changes, the small light spot sensor is characterised by a resolution of 1µm and linearity from 8µm.
Perfecting Pyrometer
Temperatures are reliably and precisely measured with a state-of-the-art, high-speed infrared pyrometer. ARCEMY® features a pyrometer sensor with a spectral range of 2.3µm, an optical range of 33:1 and can measure temperature ranges between 100 and 600° Celsius. The pyrometer features a fast response time for temperature-critical metallic materials, enabling better interpass temperature control.
Dynamic Cooler
Manage interpass temperatures with the ARCEMY® system’s dynamic cooler. Working with feedback from the high-speed infrared pyrometer and AMLSoft™ cooling rates are managed depending on the material type. The cooling application can assist with achieving specific mechanical properties for metal 3D printed parts using the Wire Additive Manufacturing process.
Advanced Arc
Incorporating Fronius welding technology, ARCEMY® industrial metal 3D printers provide an intelligent, efficient and reliable Wire Additive Manufacturing solution compared to traditional manufacturing methods. When combined with AMLSoft™, Fronius welding packages offer precision wire feeding, ensuring the highest deposition rate possible for each certified metal wire feedstock variant without compromising the material properties.
