Design for Additive Manufacturing (DfAM)

Our team specializes in Design for Additive Manufacturing (DfAM), a methodology that maximizes the benefits of 3D printing while minimizing its limitations:

  • Support Optimization: Designing parts to minimize or eliminate the need for support structures, reducing post-processing time and improving surface finish.
  • Orientation Planning: Determining the optimal print orientation to enhance strength, minimize supports, and improve surface quality.
  • Wall Thickness Analysis: Ensuring appropriate wall thicknesses for different materials and technologies to prevent warping or breakage.
  • Tolerance Engineering: Designing with appropriate tolerances for moving parts and assemblies, accounting for the specific characteristics of additive processes.
  • Feature Optimization: Adapting features like holes, threads, and overhangs to print successfully without requiring extensive post-processing.

Reverse Engineering

Need to recreate an existing part or improve upon it? Our reverse engineering services can help:

  • 3D Scanning: High-precision scanning of physical objects to create accurate digital models.
  • Point Cloud Processing: Converting scan data into usable 3D models.
  • Feature Recognition: Identifying and recreating critical features from scanned data.
  • Design Enhancement: Improving upon original designs while maintaining critical dimensions and functionality.
  • Documentation: Creating comprehensive technical documentation for reverse-engineered parts.

File Preparation and Optimization

We ensure your designs are perfectly prepared for the printing process:

  • File Format Conversion: Converting between different CAD formats and ensuring compatibility with additive manufacturing systems.
  • Mesh Repair: Fixing common issues like non-manifold edges, holes, and intersecting faces that can cause print failures.
  • Resolution Optimization: Balancing file size and detail level for optimal printing results.
  • Slicing Parameter Development: Creating custom slicing profiles for specific applications to achieve the best results.
  • Print Simulation: Identifying potential issues before printing through advanced simulation tools.

Our Design Process

When you work with our design team, you can expect a structured, collaborative approach:

  1. Initial Consultation: We begin by thoroughly understanding your requirements, objectives, constraints, and timeline.
  2. Concept Development: Our designers create initial concepts based on your requirements, presenting options for your feedback.
  3. Design Refinement: We refine the selected concept, incorporating your feedback and optimizing for additive manufacturing.
  4. Technical Validation: Our engineers analyze the design for printability, structural integrity, and functionality.
  5. Final Design Approval: You review and approve the final design before production begins.
  6. Production Support: Our design team remains involved during the printing process to address any issues that may arise.

Software and Tools

Our design team utilizes industry-leading software to create exceptional designs:

  • CAD Software: SolidWorks, Autodesk Fusion 360, Rhino, CATIA, and more
  • Organic Modeling: ZBrush, Blender, 3ds Max
  • Simulation Tools: ANSYS, Abaqus, Simscale
  • Topology Optimization: nTopology, Altair Inspire
  • Slicing Software: Simplify3D, Cura, PreForm, and proprietary solutions

Whether you're starting with a rough sketch, a detailed concept, or need to improve an existing design, our team has the expertise to transform your ideas into optimized designs ready for additive manufacturing.
