Simufact Additive is a powerful and scalable software solution for the simulation of metal additive manufacturing processes or also known as rapid prototyping metal simulation.
Highlights
- Calculate the deformation of the final part incl. the base plate
- Compensate distortions by pre-deformation of the part-automatically
- Calculate and minimize residual stress
- Identify cold and hot spots due to thermal/thermo-mechanical simulation
- Identify manufacturing issues such as recoater contact, part failure and layer offsets
- Predict the influence of several components in the build spac
- Determine the best build orientation-supported by an orientation assistant
- Generate and optimize supports-based on Materialise technology
- Examine conditions of highly elevated temperatures and pressures-HIP process
- Condition of the part also after heat treatment, base plate and support structure removal
- Run the simulation in Windows and Linux environment
