In this panel discussion, Maoz Barkai, Product Manager at Oqton Dr. Altair has tools to simulate many manufacturing methods. The reduced fabrication time means that tooling lead times are shorter, and the storage of physical tools isn’t required. Additive methods are being aggressively applied to the manufacture of cores, forms, and molds, in addition to production jigs and fixtures. It also simplifies the identification and correction of potential deformation, delamination, and excessive heating issues before building a part.įor Traditional Manufacturing with AM Tooling: It may not make sense for parts to be designed for additive manufacturing, but it might work for its tooling. Engineers can quickly understand changes to process or design that effect manufacturing efficiency, then export part and support structure geometry to major printer preparation software for printing. It provides a fast and accurate toolset for the design and process simulation of selective laser melting (SLM) parts.

For Additive Manufacturing: Altair® Inspire™ Print3D can cut product development and AM costs by reducing material usage, print times, and post processing.
