Intentional Design of Surface Roughness for Orthopedic Parts
Surface roughness in metal additive manufacturing has always been viewed as a by-product of the process instead of a design feature - specifically in the biomedical space. As additive machines become increasingly more…
Implicits and Fields for Beginners
Managing the size and performance of complex geometry requires a computationally lighter means of defining and representing geometry. By integrating a field-driven design approach based on the implicit modeling technology, designers can focus…
Lightweighting with Implicit Models
The ability to produce high-resolution geometry using implicit modeling opens a broad range of opportunities to tune the material properties of a part. Creating stiff, lightweight, and highly engineered parts is one of…
nTopology Partnerships: Connecting Workflows and Integrating Solutions
nTopology will continue to connect and collaborate with new partners as we build up the power of our internal tools. We will also continue to invest resources to connect with others in the…
Advanced Design Tools for Additively Manufactured Medical Devices
nTop platform is a powerful tool in a medical device designer’s toolbox. From complex geometry creation, repeatable workflows, and data management – nTop can be utilized as a key competitive advantage for product…
Topology Optimization in a World of Fields and Implicit Geometry
Manual reconstruction of geometry after topology optimization is generally viewed as a major impediment, and this was the challenge first tackled in nTop Platform software. The resulting smooth geometry is generated in seconds…
Computational Modeling with nTop Platform
With nTop Platform, we’ve combined 3D modeling, simulation, and manufacturing processes into one computational modeling environment managed through a custom visual programming interface. We’ve set out to enable our users to intelligently automate…
Interpolating with Implicit Modeling
The last two posts in this implicit modeling series introduced the implicit representation and how it enables failure-proof, simple operations like offsets and booleans. To get a better understanding of the power of…
nTopology highlights from AMUG 2019
At AMUG and across the industry, we are hearing that partners and customers want solutions that address design of complex geometry, iterations on designs that are orders of magnitude faster and solutions for…
