In this nTop Live, Andrew Sartorelli, Product Manager at nTopology, shows you how to import topology optimization results from Altair Optistruct® and automatically reconstruct the geometry to produce a manufacturable part.
In the recent nTop Platform 2.24 update, we introduced the topology optimization overhang constraint for Additive Manufacturing. In this blog post, we take a deeper look at the unique capabilities of this new feature and how it allows you to create optimization workflows that are different from every other solution currently in the market.
Field-Driven Design is a methodology enabled by the unique capabilities of nTop Platform. Field-Driven Design is a radically better way to generate & control complex part geometry for engineering, manufacturing, and product development.
This whitepaper describes the general concepts of Field-Driven Design, how to create and use fields in nTop Platform, and how to use this unique design methodology to unlock new applications.
Over the past 12 months, nTop Platform has evolved into an advanced engineering product development platform. Engineering teams are using our software to tackle the most challenging problems. With 2020 soon coming to a close, now is the perfect time for an end-of-the-year retrospective. Here are the nTop highlights of the year.
Generative Design is a holistic methodology that augments the capabilities of engineers with digital tools, enabling them to innovate faster. In this 20+ page guide, we explain how you can use nTop Platform as a powerful Generative Design toolbox that gives you complete control over every aspect of your design workflows.
Generative Design is getting a lot of attention — but what is it exactly? Here is why the current Generative Design concepts fall short and how nTop’s alternative approach enables you to unlock its full potential today.
In this webinar, Yamaichi Special Steel explains how they combined the advanced capabilities of nTop Platform with their own custom software (Cognitive Additive & OptiBot) to create a generative design workflow tailored to their needs.
Titanium is the blank canvas on which advanced additive designs can be placed.
In this speaker series, experts in the field of Design for Additive Manufacturing will discuss applications for metal 3D printing and the constant trade off between engineering requirements and design for the manufacturing process.

This document describes the modeling technology used in nTop Platform, and explains how this differs from the approach used in current CAD systems. As we will see, nTop uses a completely different approach to solid modeling, which delivers large and sustainable advantages in reliability, speed, and scalability.
Maiki Vlahinos, Senior Application Engineer at nTopology, describes the simulation-driven methodology he followed to improve the performance of an advanced heat exchanger by 300%; specifically, a Fuel Cooled Oil Cooler for aerospace applications.
This report will document the design process of a Fuel Cooled Oil Cooler (FCOC) from initial design in CAD,
process steps in nTop Platform, and final Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) analysis steps in ANSYS CFX. This document should serve as a reference for nTopology users to perform similar simulations on their own designs.
nTop engineers designed, analyzed and printed a fuel-cooled oil cooler using nTop Platform, ANSYS CFX and a new additive aluminum alloy developed by HRL Laboratories. This blog takes you from start to finish in the series that began in late 2019.
Engineers can now use additive manufacturing, topology optimization and computational fluid dynamics (CFD) to build, shape, optimize and evaluate designs that were previously impossible to produce.
Creating complex geometry simply and mixing lattice structures with easy in nTop Platform.
Software solutions like nTop Platform enable engineers to design medical implants that are biologically-relevant and optimized for osseointegration.
Learn how nTopology's generative design software, nTop Platform, allows engineers to automate workflows, optimize designs, and go right to manufacturing.
Complex modeling operations, often seen as risky or fragile in traditional CAD software, do not fail in nTop Platform. Because of automation, things like large scale fillet operations can be condensed to a property or variable as part of a separate modeling operation.
Everyone wants lighter parts, be it for quicker cars, cheaper air travel, or simply bragging rights at your next group bike ride. But it's often difficult to know where to start, with the endless combinations of materials, processes, and design tools available today. Here's a list of 5 techniques to get you started on putting your parts on a diet.
