News and trends around DraftSight
From generative design to additive manufacturing: the key role of topology optimization
3D printing has opened up new design possibilities. But… are you really taking full advantage of its potential? If you design the same way as always and only change the manufacturing method, you are missing out on a major advantage. One of the greatest allies of...
Why are your designs overdimensioned (and how can you avoid it without taking risks)?
In engineering, fear of failure often translates into excess material. And that costs money. Sound familiar? Designing with large safety margins is common, but also inefficient. This is where topological optimization comes into play. Topological optimization makes it...
Disconnected simulation: the bottleneck no one questions
When simulation becomes a bottleneck (and it could be avoided)Many CAE teams are overloaded. They receive requests from design, quality, or manufacturing… but lack time and context. And since everything depends on them, cycles get longer, tasks pile up, and agility is...
