The design of a manufacturing process is iterative in nature. The influential process parameters which can be quantified (E.g. Die radius) are continuously optimized using metal forming simulators coupled with optimization algorithms. This approach is being successfully applied at various … Read More

Creating CAD data from physical objects (reverse engineering hereunder) can be time consuming and labor intensive. Moreover, each use case has different expectations for the data. For example, some use cases demand higher quality of the CAD surfaces than others. … Read More
This year, I made my first visit to the IoT Tech Connect Conference in Troy, Michigan and I admit that I found the whole conference very interesting. I am very glad I was able to attend. Especially with it being … Read More
Casting is one of the oldest-known manufacturing processes that is still in use today. Complex geometries that are difficult to be shaped by other methods, can be manufactured with relative ease, regardless of size. While the process is at least … Read More
It is widely known that one of the biggest focal points of Automotive OEM Research and development in recent years has been electric vehicles. It represents quite a challenge because while OEM manufacturers are very skilled at building internal combustion … Read More
For those involved with composite materials in Europe and beyond, the annual JEC expo in Paris is a sure sign of spring. For the sixth consecutive year, Altair exhibited at JEC that took place in early March 2018. The JEC … Read More
The myth goes like this: A shot with no backspin will hit the rim and then tragically bounce away with no chance of going in. In contrast, the magic of spinning somehow slows the ball down during the impact(s) and … Read More
Last week a few hundred engineers and designers from major German OEMs and Tiers gathered in the Bavarian town of Würzburg at the 7th LeichtbauGipfel (German for Lightweight Summit) to discuss how lightweight design impacts the vehicles we drive everyday. … Read More
