Topology Reconstruction
Automatic transfer from topology optimization to CAD
Automatic generation of lightweight designs using topology optimization and reconstruction into solid CAD geometry.
Challenge
Topology optimization potential limited by CAD transfer time
The consistent application of structural optimization is limited due to the complexity of topology optimization results and the costly and time-consuming reconstruction of these results in CAD. The potential that could be achieved through topology optimization is often lost in the CAD design process.
Solution
Workflow including result interpretation, and CAD conversion
Workflow for topology optimization pre-processing, simulation (e.g. simulated with Altair® OptiStruct or Hexagon® Generative Design), cleaning and interpretation of topology optimization results using advanced remeshing and automated conversion into a solid CAD geometry.
Speed Up
Save up to 95% of time & costs with automatic CAD reconstruction of topology optimization results.
Democratization
Leverage optimization results that lead to lightweight, stiff, and safe components across the entire engineering department.
Sustainability
Apply topology optimization to reduce carbon footprint and protect resources.
