In a call we clarify whether the simulation answers your parameter question.

DED simulation, soon in your browser

Status: in development

In pilot projects we already apply the same software to your problem to speed up process development.

Registration for platform access

The platform is for process and application teams that regularly prepare parameter studies, compare strategies and review adjusted machine files. A short, non-confidential outline of your studies and workflow, sent through the contact form, is enough to reserve access. We discuss access terms once the platform is ready.

You talk to Dr. Michael BlankThe founder has researched particle-based melt-pool simulation since 2017 and earned his doctorate in the field.

Getting started with a pilot project

The pilot project is a separate offer, independent of the future platform.
