November 2, 2018 · MIT launches online experiment to add human perspective on AI training for self-driving cars, Hexagon buys Bricsys, known for DWG-compatible BricsCAD, ANSYS launches new app store, and more.
September 27, 2018 · Materialise brings simulation for additive manufacturing to the production floor.
September 1, 2018 · The cost of running an additive manufacturing metal 3D printer, on average, is estimated to be around $100 per hour, and a single build can take upwards of 20 hours—or closer to 80 hours for highly complex parts. That's $2,000 to $8,000 wasted every time a part fails and has to be reprinted. Rather than learning from expensive trial-and-error processes, simulation, and specifically simulation of additive manufacturing processes, is a much more efficient and cost effective way to optimize use of metal AM technology.
