Simufact Additive is a scalable software solution for the simulation of metal-based additive manufacturing processes which focuses on laser powder bed fusion (L- PBF) and metal binder jetting (MBJ) processes.

Simufact Additive is a software solution designed to predict and compensate for distortion, residual stress and temperature distribution throughout the printing, heat treatment, cutting, hot isostatic pressing (HIP) as well as machining processes virtually before the part is manufactured by the 3D metal printer in reality.

Simufact Additive focuses on quick simulation of Laser Powder Bed Fusion including Selective Laser Melting (SLM), Direct Metal Laser Sintering (DMLS), LaserCUSING® and similar processes and reduces the need for multiple product iterations to produce 3D parts “first-time-right”.

• Prepare parts for build by orienting, identifying risks, estimating costs and generating supports
• Predict distortions, residual stresses and thermal effects via mechanical and thermal analysis
• Compensate for distortions automatically and support optimization
• Generate build files after slicing your parts
