- Topology optimization
After running a topology optimization, the unprocessed result has jagged edges and a rough surface. To make it viable for manufacturing, you need to reconstruct the geometry and smoothen its surface.
In this nTop Live, Yuki Okada, Technical Marketing Engineer at nTop, shows you how to take any raw topology optimized result and automatically reconstruct it and smoothen it. He explains how each input of the nTop blocks influences the final smoothened result and shares best practices for exporting the optimized part for manufacturing.
Watch and learn how to:
- Reconstruct and smoothen the raw topology optimized results
- Control the different inputs of the Smoothen Body block to influence the result
- Prepare a topology optimized part for manufacturing
