MSC Apex | Generative Design

Automated Lightweight Design Optimization

MSC Apex Generative Design is designed specifically to generate the detailed and highly complex structures that only additive processes can manufacture. The innovative, stress-based algorithm derives distinct geometries by minimizing mass, creating geometries that are truly unimaginable by the human mind.

Simplicity: No expert knowledge required for conducting optimziations through a high userfocused software design

Automated design: Almost automatically generate multiple smoothed design candidates that allsatisfy the design criteria while minimizing the weight.

Import and validation: Import existing geometries or mesh, find optimized design candidates,and perform design validation – all inside a single CAE environment.

Direct output: Export geometry that can be directly manufactured and used immediatelywithout manual re-work.

One process: Import the resulting geometries in Simufact Additive or Digimat AM to achievecost-efficient first-time-right result for every part
