Innovative Batch Nesting Tool allows Automatic 3D Printing
With the latest version of the 4D_Additive Software Suite, CoreTechnologie is
presenting a new batch tool for a fully automated, fast and reliable nesting.
Moembris, 19/12/03 (ab/mas) - The software company CoreTechnologie GmbH (CT)
presents the latest version of the renowned 4D_Additive software. The advanced
version includes an innovative batch nesting tool.
With the help of the new function, the CAD models stored in the system-specific
database are ordered as in a web shop and automatically sent to the printer. The
arrangement and orientation of the components, the so-called nesting, automatically
takes place and does not require any 3D printing expertise of the user. As a result,
the usually complicated and time consuming manual operation is significantly
simplified and accelerated. The system is integrated in the so-called Partfinder, which
makes it possible to locate and sort suitable parts for specific processes and machine
has been extended with the advanced nesting tool of 4D_Additive running in batch
mode.
Optimal Results at Minimal Costs
The intelligent nesting functions with multiprocessor calculation ensure a reliable and
fast automatic filling as well as the optimal utilization of the construction volume and
one hundred percent collision safety. For the fully automatic orientation of the parts
on the build platform, functions are available which take into account criteria such as
best possible surface finish, minimum cost and space requirements as well as
minimal volume of the supporting geometry. Thereafter, the iterative calculation of the
alignment takes place within seconds by just selecting parts from the pre-defined
database and specifying the desired quantity.

Automated batch nesting offers a great benefit especially for powder bed processes
such as HP Jet Fusion, since the time saved by eliminating complex manual activities
has significantly positive effects on the price per piece as well as the overall through
put time of the jobs. Users only have to select and set the respective quantity of the
parts in a web interface. Thereafter, the machine is filled automatically, so that an
optimized number of components can be accommodated on the platforms. The
relative density of a building volume can also be pre-defined allowing for a sensible
heat management and in order to simultaneously optimize component quality and
costs.
Additive Manufacturing of the Future
Another special feature of the trend-setting 4D_Additive Software Suite is the
processing of exact B-Rep CAD data of all common systems such as Catia, NX,
Solidworks, Creo, Inventor, STEP or JT. The robust B-Rep geometry kernel of the
software makes it possible to test, repair and prepare the exact 3D models according
to CAD Engineering Standard.
Additive Manufacturing is developing with a rapid growth and today an economically
advantageous production for e.g. plastic parts of small batches is already realistic. In
order to meet the increased demands of additive manufacturing and a growing need
for automated workflows, the innovation company CoreTechnologie has developed
the 4D_Additive Manufacturing Software Suite.
