Hyperganic, a pioneer in algorithmic engineering software, has released HyDesign, a new cloud-native design app for creating 3D printed lattice structures. This innovative tool simplifies, accelerates, and reduces the cost of designing lattice-based products for industrial designers, application engineers, and OEMs exploring cutting-edge 3D printing applications.
Forward AM’s Ultrasim® 3D Lattice Library is directly embedded in the software, allowing you to unlock the full potential of superior lattice structures in minutes. This integration will replace the standalone Ultrasim® 3D Lattice Engine, simplifying the design process within HyDesign.
Key challenges in 3D printed lattice design
- Simplifying the numerous choices for lattice designs, materials, and printers.
- This eliminates the need for expert designers and high-performance computing hardware.
- reducing costly and time-consuming trial prints.
- Accelerating the design process through validated materials and meshless simulation, which is currently in beta.
“Developing products for 3D printing has traditionally been costly trial-and-error. HyDesign changes this by accelerating the design process with design flexibility, validated materials, and simulation, all in an app that takes minutes to learn.”
– Michael Robinson, Managing Director and CTO of Hyperganic
Partnership with Forward AM
Forward AM’s Ultrasim® 3D Lattice Library provides curated, tailored lattices for faster product development and less guesswork in functional 3D-printed structures. Built on decades of material science expertise and rigorous testing, the library offers the best combinations of lattice designs, materials, and printers, which have been tested and used in industries such as footwear, seating, and protection. It currently supports printer-material pairings such as Ultrasint® TPU 01 for HP’s Multi-Jet Fusion (MJF5200) and TPU 88A for Farsoon’s HT252.
“The Ultrasim® 3D Lattice Library represents a significant leap in designing for additive manufacturing. By combining our materials expertise with Hyperganic’s technology, we’re not just optimizing products – we’re reshaping entire industries and accelerating innovation cycles across the board.”
– Martin Back, CEO and Managing Director of Forward AM
While integrated into HyDesign, the library is still freely available on Forward AM’s website, providing detailed technical specifications for designers and engineers.
HyDesign is now commercially available and includes a 14-day free trial, with simulation available as a beta feature.
