nTop for Lightweighting
Design and build lighter, higher-performance components
Minimize weight with advanced latticing, topology optimization, and ribbing techniques to achieve structural requirements and improve performance.
Lightweighting workflows that actually work
Fragile CAD systems break under the demands of advanced lightweighting techniques additive manufacturing enables. nTop's implicit modeling approach generates robust lattice structures and topology optimized geometries in seconds while maintaining design integrity through unlimited parametric changes, enabling engineers to explore thousands of lightweighting variations in the time it used to take for just a few.
Advanced design approaches. Streamlined process.
Parametric changes without rebuild failures
Implicit modeling enables fast and reliable design modifications through flexible, field-driven parameterizations using modern GPU compute.
Simulation without meshing bottlenecks
Embed topology optimization and structural analysis into your workflow, enabling rapid design feedback during optimization.
Automation for rapid optimization
Generate hundreds of variants automatically using programmatic notebooks and systematically explore your design space.
Seamless move to manufacturing
Export optimized designs directly to build preparation software using implicit interoperability, ensuring error-free handoff to manufacturing.
