| The new year marks new software updates, and yesterday the engineering software developer Altair announced the release of Inspire 2018. The simulation-driven design software provides direct access to the HyperWorks user community through Altair's SolidThinking channel partner network. Inspire is a design engineer Powerful and easy-to-use Generative Design / Topology Optimization and Rapid Simulation solutions provide fast and easy creation and investigation of cost-effective concepts that reduce costs, shorten development time, reduce material consumption and product weight.  James Dagg, Chief Technology Officer, Altair User Experience, said: 'The Inspire 2018 enables designers and engineers to accelerate the development of high-performance, innovative products in innovative, innovative ways. Inspire integrates well into large manufacturing companies for fast Analog and lightweight insights, and has an intuitive user experience, making it ideal for small and medium-sized businesses with little or no analog experience. ' Inspire is designed to be used in the earliest stages of the design process as well as the design exploration of the current production part, enabling designers and engineers to quickly assemble and simulate a dynamic mechanical system that automatically solves loads on system components for optimization and analysis.It generates specific Traditional or additive manufacturing process, and simulate the performance of static loads, normal mode, and competing design concepts.You can also export Inspire CAD geometry directly to a 3D printer. Andy Bartels, Inspire Program Manager, said: "To stay competitive and at the same time to promote innovation, simulations must move the entire design process from early conceptual design through to production. We continue to add tools that make Inspire even more beneficial at every step of the design process User. ' New features include generating optimized lattice and mixed solid lattice structures, displaying simulation results in 3D, and exporting lattice designs for 3D printing in .stl format. Users can view and interactively assign load cases and use new Load Case Sheet Import / Export Design Loads in .csv File Format They also allow for the design of cantilever shape-controlled additive manufacturing, helping to reduce prominence and create more self-supporting structures.Users can also take advantage of the new PolyNURBS Fit tool AutoNumbering PolyNURBS CAD geometry matches the resulting design result. Dagg said: 'The Inspire 2018 is ready for download as an application software and will be available as a cloud-based product later this year. Inspire, Inspire Unlimited, Inspire's cloud products will include secure data management, teamwork tools and on-demand Additional features such as Performance Computing (HPC). Inspire is easy to learn and easy to use and works with existing CAD tools to help you design your construction for the first time, saving you time and money. It works for Windows 2014, 2015, 2016, and 2018. Headquartered in Troy, Michigan, Altair employs 2,000 people and has 69 offices in 24 countries, and its customer base includes more than 5,000 clients across multiple industries. The company is involved in innovative projects such as 3i-PRINT with a focus on metals 3D printing, and partnerships and new software versions built to further develop the manufacturing industry.
