Automotive design software
Get high-performance, additively manufactured parts on cars and stay ahead of the competition.
Create safe, high-performing automotive parts with precision using nTop’s advanced tools for design and workflow management.
Automotive applications
Structural lightweighting
Make lighter automotive parts with an extensive set of design tools like topology optimization, lattice and gyroid structures, perforation patterns, variable shelling, and isogrid ribs.
Load path visualization
Part consolidation
Topology optimization
Lattice infills
Variable shelling
Architected materials
Improve the passenger experience by creating more comfortable and safe parts with complex geometries that could only be made with 3D printing.
Tailored material properties
Advanced lattice structures
Multifunctional optimization
Foam replacement
Data-driven design
Beat program deadlines by creating and evaluating more design concepts directly informed by simulation and analysis.
Reusable simulation processes
Design of experiments
Finite element analysis
Field optimization
Lighter liquid-cooled plate created with advanced lattice generation and reusable workflows
Puntozero used nTop to redesign the power electronics in Dynamis PRC’s electric race car for additive manufacturing. The result was a 25% lighter liquid-cooled heat sink with flow guides that increased the heat transfer surface area by 300%.
