Company patents
Arcam AB
Arcam AB's patent strategy is heavily concentrated in core manufacturing technologies, with Additive Manufacturing (3D Printing) and Powder Metallurgy dominating, representing 96.7% and 93.3% of its portfolio respectively, both experiencing significant growth in 2024 (100.0% and 85.7% YoY). A surprising shift is the sharp decline in Plastics Shaping & Molding, which saw a 71.4% drop in 2025 after a 40.0% growth in 2024, indicating a potential reprioritization away from traditional plastic processing despite its substantial 46.7% portfolio share.
