Autodesk Netfabb Local Simulation 2021 R0 | 1.5 Gb

The Netfabb development team is pleased to announce the availability of Netfabb Local Simulation 2021. Simulated data generated from the Autodesk’s Netfabb Local Simulation are mainly used for model training and testing, and also to calibrate the model.

Local Simulation

Directed Energy Deposition Compensation

- Using a source STL, simulation-based compensation and warping of DED geometries is now possible. A new example has been added to demonstrate Directed Energy Deposition Compensation.

Input/Output

- Two new cards have been added to allow viewing simulation results on the warped or compensated STL:

_ *OVTK outputs a .vtk file during distort_stl, in additional to the warped .stl.

_ *AVTK is used in conjunction with *OVTK, and outputs ASCII-coded .vtk files when executing distort_stl.

Part Level Powder Bed Modeling

- Two new cards have been created to improve the homogenization of vertices with large numbers of vertices:

_ *MNHV overrides the default maximum number of vertices to homogenize.

_ *NSTP skips the pseudo-random vertex reading during homogenization.

NetFabb Local Simulation

is a non-linear finite element thermo-mechanical solver for additive manufacturing (AM) processes. With the graphical user interface, Local Simulation users can easily set up, execute, and examine analysis results. Advanced users may prefer the command-line interface to access advanced or beta features of Local Simulation.

Simulation can be used to perform predictive modeling of the AM build process to help guide the design and manufacture of AM parts. Simulation can model AM processes directly, using traditional moving-source thermo-mechanical methods, or rapidly model large and complex geometries using a unique accurate and fast multi-scale methodology. These models result in histories of temperature, distortion, and stress fields, which coupled with warnings for support structure failure or recoater blade interference, can be used to improve manufacturability for a variety of AM technologies.

Virtually all metal additive manufactured parts require machining in order to achieve the desired geometry and tolerances. Use Netfabb simulation to create reliable production plans and robust manufacturing processes – this includes defining the net near shape for the additive process, part orientation and nesting, addition of supports and reference geometry, and machining processes.
