Industrial design DfAM series: Utilizing automation to bring latticed bBased custom Flip Flops to Consumers

Craig DeMerit, Impact Footwear

This presentation discusses how to take a visualized 3D representation to drive an automated CAD process. 

By using nTop, variable data with over a million variations can be passed through a single notebook to create a final design. Using varied lattice structures help provide different compression and resistance through testing. 

Further, Craig goes over the ability to texture products for both form and fashion while keeping sustainability in mind. 

Watch and learn about: 

• The flexibility of nTop Platform and its infinite capability to handle parametrized data options
• How lattice structures require mechanical testing to support the goals set out for the product
• How the design of the product can have an aesthetic and functional feel while also being environmentally focused
