Advanced 3D design

Our expertise

• Design of high-performance organic-shape parts
• Fast design with our in-house geometry generation tool based on distance fields
• High-speed simulation with GPU and multithread CPU codes on an internal cluster
• Ability to slice very complex parts and generate multi-GB SLC files in one pass

Services

Implicit design

• Implicit part design from distance fields
• Lattices and TPMS internal structures
• Unique know-how combining parametric and implicit CAD

Simulation

• Structural and mechanical strength analysis
• Thermomechanical optimization
• Fatigue and plasticity calculations
• Topology optimization

Production

• Part design and orientation to optimize support strategy
• Multi-technology manufacturing route definition (additive, post-processing, machining, welding, FSW, etc.)
• Goal: guarantee functional parts

Use cases

• Aerospace: buy-to-fly ratio optimization
• Nuclear: part documentation reliability and material qualification/certification
• Space: high-performance lightweight aluminum parts sized for vibration
• Hydrogen: high-conductivity parts performing at high pressure and high temperature

Value
