Procurement Information
The University of Birmingham Centre seeks to optimize the design of additively manufactured metal implants for improved patient outcomes. The RenAM 500S system is an upgrade for our Centre due to its automated safe powder handling and double filtering systems. These features will offer significant benefits in standardisation and a controlled environment when conducting comparative scientific analysis on different geometrical designs, metal alloy systems, thus providing a greater level of confidence in experimental data. Furthermore, the compatibility of the system with the MeltVIEW in-situ process monitoring offers unique benefits in helping understand how input parameters shall affect key performance criteria. Lastly, the system is compatible for a reduced build volume unit allowing use of smaller amounts of different powders, this will support the University in continuing state of the art research in a number of application areas. Renishaw will continue to provide QuantAM build preparation software, for which they own the IP rights. It is crucial to research progress that we continue with the same build software to enable accurate comparisons between existing data and that which shall be generated on the upgraded 500S system. Furthermore, continuing to use the QuantAM software will enable to ensure that evidence we have collected so far around quality assurance will be enable going forward with the upgraded system, saving substantial time and consumables. University of Birmingham is currently working closely with Renishaw PLC to actively grow this relationship, moving towards a strategic partnership that stretches across multiple research groups and areas of expertise. Renishaw, with their continued support, is working with the University of Birmingham to achieve ISO 13485 standards for our production facility to enable implants designed and manufactured at the University to go into clinical use under the appropriate circumstances.
