July 13, 2018 · For years designers and engineers have worked in 3D modeling and simulation applications with immersive, photorealistic visuals that can mimic reality. The affordable AR-VR gears and hardware that have recently emerged promise to bring the missing piece—a sense of touch—into product development. Join us to discuss bringing CAD data into the AR-VR pipelines; adopting entertainment and game technologies for product development; and rethinking simulation and validation to incorporate haptic (touch-enabled) technologies.
July 3, 2018 · Hear customer use cases from Thales Alenia Space, Airbus Defense and Space, and the European Space Agency in this webinar. Learn how the integrated combination of Design for Additive Manufacturing (DfAM) software, advanced metal additive manufacturing, and thoroughly developed metal materials and print parameters is leading to a revolution in the way metal parts are designed and produced.
June 25, 2018 · Join us for a LIVE webcast to learn how to product development is a critical balance of cost, efficiency and time to market. During the product design lifecycle, planning and development processes require efficiencies in two objectives that often work against each other: Extreme attention to detail and measurement accuracy and Efforts to rapidly hit market before your competition. What if you could do both, while reducing costs and overcoming the difficulties of complex geometries? This webinar will demonstrate how 3D laser scanning technology can accomplish all of these tasks for product development.
June 21, 2018 · Join this webinar to learn about HP Jet Fusion 3D Printing’s process, including some of the advantages of using this disruptive technology for manufacturing aids and how it can help improve production line efficiency. You'll hear about actual use cases where HP’s 3D Printing technology has helped enable design freedom and shorter lead times, and resulted in cost savings and an increase in both productivity and part precision.

March 16, 2018 · In this roundtable panelists discuss: software developed specifically for AM, the CAD and FEA community's efforts to support 3D printing, and the need to revise old design methods to keep up with additive manufacturing."
February 27, 2018 · Advancement in multiphysics simulation and apps allows engineers to solve more complex engineering problems. Distributing the simulation work across multiple computers provides both a means to solve extremely large problems and to solve multiple model configurations simultaneously. In this webinar, we will discuss how simulation engineers overcome the constraints of traditional engineering resources and processes by deploying multiphysics simulations and apps in the cloud. "
October 2, 2017 · Though a household name in computing systems and printers, HP is a relative newcomer to the 3D printing segment. What can its Multi Jet Fusion (MJF) technology do that others can't? It brings disruptive technology, according to HP's David Tucker, himself a product designer. In this presentation, Tucker discusses the type of projects where MJF offers superior results; ways to prep the CAD model to take advantage of MJF; and methods to optimize print layer and density."
October 2, 2017 · The use of simulations to displace physical tests has become essential in accelerating product development and reducing costs. However, simulation results may be substantially different from what is observed in reality. This could lead to premature product failure, costly warranty payments and a redesign campaign. In this webcast, Dr. Mark Andrews, UQ Technology Steward, SmartUQ, discusses why simulation results might not always be reliable, ways to calibrate simulation using test results and how to spot simulation anomalies and inaccurate results."
