Inspire Print3D will also allow engineers to create best performing designs for the SLM process by applying advanced thermo-mechanical simulation to reduce post-processing and avoid expensive trial-and-error. 'With Inspire Print3D, companies can now reduce development and manufacturing costs by minimizing part supports and reducing material usage, print times, and post-processing.'Įngineers working with Inspire Print3D will be able to quickly understand and correct potential defects such as part deformation, delamination, and overheating before printing. 'Inspire Print3D is the latest of our manufacturing tools, and we are very excited to present it to the design engineering and additive manufacturing communities,' said James Dagg, Altair chief technology officer, design and simulation solutions. Reducing expensive trial and error by simulating part build, cooling, cutting and springback, Inspire Print3D delivers designs having the fewest support structures, optimally oriented on any 3D printer.

Designers can optimally generate designs that meet performance requirements as well as evaluate and easily modify critical process variables in one single immersive environment. The easy-to-use, advanced thermo-mechanical solution enables design engineers to develop parts ready for additive manufacturing.

Inspire Print3D provides a fast and accurate toolset to design and simulate the manufacturing process for selective laser melting (SLM) parts. Altair Inspire Print3D enables designers, engineers and manufacturing specialists to create, evaluate and optimize efficient designs for additive manufacturing.Īltair Altair (Nasdaq: ALTR) a global technology company providing solutions in product development, high-performance computing and data analytics, announced it has launched its new manufacturing simulation solution for additive manufacturing, Inspire Print3D.
