A great design for Additive Manufacturing usually starts with a CAD design, a topology optimised model, a simulation, or scanned data as input. To benefit from the possibilities that 3D Printing offers, you need a versatile tool to make design modifications on the mesh level.
With Materialise 3-matic, you can clean up rough data for simulation or convert your mesh back to CAD. In addition, it allows you to enhance your design by creating 3D textures, lattice structures, and conformal structures, ready for Additive Manufacturing.
With our design optimization software, you can fully personalize your products and create models that were impossible to produce with traditional manufacturing methods.
Materialise 3-matic allows you to create stunning lattice designs, leading to lower material costs and less printing time. These optimized lattices outperform solid blocks of material in numerous ways.
Master the physical properties of your part. Change aerodynamic, acoustic and cushioning properties or characteristics, increase grip or control the density of your part with porous structures.
Materialise 3-matic is integrated with Materialise Magics and other solutions from our extensive software suite.
With the Texturing Module, you can directly apply textures, perforations, and patterns to complex 3D shapes within an STL file. Textures provide extra value to you Additive Manufacturing projects by adding functionality or an aesthetic dimension.
The Lattice Module allows you to create directly printable internal and external structures that add extra strength, provide cushioning, increase porosity, or simply reduce the weight of your design.
Easily convert your mesh file to a CAD file format with the Materialise 3-matic CAD Link Module. The conversion will recognise the analytical shapes in your part and generates a fully parametric file without having to design from scratch.
Materialise 3-matic is a 3D modeling software program that enables design optimisation and modification on mesh level, using CAD designs, scanned data and topology optimised models as a starting point.
Materialise 3-matic lets you redesign rough surfaces outputted by topology optimisation. This prevents complicated freedom modeling work when moving to CAD, as well as more complexity and possible stress concentrations for FEA.
The Scripting schedule lets you automate and process faster and with more control. It comes with Python API and affords access to 3-matic objects and features. The module also features a comprehensive console including auto-complete and a built-in, easy-to-use script editor.
Do you want to apply functional textures to your model or reduce the weight of your part with a lattice structure? Choose the module that fits your needs.
The look and feel of a part is crucial to the success of a product design. It largely defines the aesthetics of a part, but can also lead to added functionality or improved performance. With the Materialise 3-matic Texturing Module, you can efficiently create 3D textures, perforations and patterns directly on the STL file (which can later be printed with RP/AM technology). In addition, you have the flexibility to quickly change and preview 3D textured components without having to share your designs with external suppliers.
Nature uses precisely designed structures to create shapes that fit the needs of strength, flexibility and rigidness while still keeping them as light as possible. Manufacturing similar lattice structures has always been challenging and often impossible to achieve with traditional manufacturing technologies.
One of the key advantages of 3D Printing is the flexibility to create shapes which are impossible or too costly to produce with traditional technologies. The Materialise 3-matic Lattice Module realizes one of the most promising potentials of the 3D printing industry: optimizing your designs and translating them into components with a lattice structure.
Automating your workflow is your best bet to save time and increase consistency and productivity. The Scripting module is designed to do a lot of the legwork for you by automating repetitive work, leaving you free to focus on more interesting tasks. Once workflows are codified, you will be able to work in a highly efficient way that minimizes the risk of human error and allows you to get the job done a whole lot faster.
Mass customization is tangible with this module: scale up your work from one custom design to 10, 20, or even hundreds of designs, whilst still maintaining the option to customize every individual design when needed.
Python allows for customizing user interfaces that interact with 3-matic, making the UX more user-friendly and consistent.
To ensure that you hit the ground running, the Scripting module includes extended API documentation as well as tutorials and our Software team is always there to provide support.
With the Materialise 3-matic Import Module, you can create STL data from native and non-native CAD data, including IGES, VDA, Vrml, Catia V4, V5 and V6, UG, Pro-E and STEP files. In addition, it offers import and meshing functionality for point cloud data.
The Materialise 3-matic CAD Link Module gives you the possibility to easily bring your file back to CAD and CAM environments. As a combination of the segmentation tools and intelligent automatic splitting, and our new Quad Dominant patching method, this module offers you the complete solution to convert STL files to IGES or STEP, optimized for processing in CAM software.
Included in the conversion is a feature recognition where the basic analytical shapes will be converted with the correct parameters, while the organic regions will be converted to NURBS to obtain a fully parametric design.
The CAD link module is available through scripting so you can increase productivity.
The Materialise 3-matic Remesh Module allows you to fully prepare your parts for CAE applications. The surface mesh is optimized through different manual and automatic remesh operations, which control the quality and size of the part’s surface triangulation.
The Remesh Module also offers a volume meshing functionality, which lets you create Tet4 and Tet10 volume meshes. These surface meshes and volume meshes can be exported to Fluent, Ansys, Abaqus, Comsol, Patran and Nastran file formats. Additionally, the lattice beams designed in Materialise 3-matic can be exported to Abaqus and Optistruct, which allows you to fully analyze the structural integrity of your lightweight part before printing.
