With Simulation, you can now virtually test the strength and stiffness of your parts right from your Eiger workflow — which means you can validate your part’s performance before you hit print. 

Simulation instills confidence that your 3D printed parts will have the strength required for demanding industrial applications. Powerful simultion technology that’s optimized for additive manufacturing lets any user virtally test parts — taking the guesswork out of configuring print parameters to meet performance requirements. 

Simulation allows you to deliver trusted parts faster by reducing design-print test iteration cycles and rework delays. Unlike traditional simulation tools that need specialized expertise and time-consuming analysis, Simulation is integrated into Eiger and streamlined for additive manufacturing so users can test parts within their familiar slice and print workflow. 

Simulation reduces the cost of 3D printed parts by automatically optimizing the amounts of material and continuous fiber reinforcement needed. Avoid overbuilt parts and wasted material by effortlessly applying settings that optimize to meet your needs for strength, cost, and print speed. Replacing the typical 5 to 25 iterations of trial and error printing with virtual testing can end- save hundreds or even thousands of dollars per part. Ultimately, this enables expanded use of fiberreinforced composite parts — more metal tooling and use parts can be replaced in a manner that is faster, for cheaper, and effortlessly.
