Lightweighting through design for additive manufacturing (DfAM) has gained a lot of attention recently. And, while performing topology optimizations or applying lattices for your additive manufactured product is beneficial and in many cases critical, it is also necessary to validate and optimize these designs to ensure accurately printed parts and avoid unnecessary, expensive iterations. ANSYS offers a comprehensive and scalable software solution for additive, which minimizes the risks within your additive manufacturing processes and delivers high-quality, certifiable parts.

In this webinar, we will see how a user ran a part through a series of validations to produce a truly functional lightweight structure on a metal 3D printer.
