What's New

Our latest Additive Manufacturing (AM) release enhances the 3D printing landscape by focusing on three key pillars: fidelity, usability, and optimization.

FIDELITY

Providing users with advanced tools to control the 3D printing process precisely

With higher fidelity, Ansys Additive accurately captures the process parameters used by the consumer’s 3D printing machine, ensuring structural integrity.

  • Advanced LPBF Controls (Laser Power Input control)
  • Advanced DED Controls (Power Input Control)

USABILITY

Streamlining workflows, making it easier for users to set up print jobs

Increased usability helps customers maintain consistency across multiple projects, enhancing efficiency and reducing setup time.

  • LPBF Setting Template Save/Load
  • New one-step multi-support and part voxelization
  • Improvement of G-code visualizations

OPTIMIZATION

Taking a lot of the user interaction out of doing these complicated workflows

Improvements in optimizations mean customers can drastically increase productivity. 

  • Distortion Compensation restart
  • DED Auto-dwell time
  • User-defined Distortion Compensation geometry

Additive Simulation 101 – Back to Basics

Imagine 3D printing a part and hearing ‘oops’ from your operator or engineer.  What’s the first thing that goes through your mind?...How much is this going to cost us?  Whether you’re producing parts out of plastic, resin, or metal, the cost fluctuates, especially with metal additive printing.
