Markforged Simulation is a powerful software within Eiger that is designed to take the guesswork out of the performance of the finished 3D printed part, by validating part strength and optimising parameters before printing.
Simulation is available as part of the Advanced tier of the Markforged Digital Forge subscription (available as 1 or 3 year plans). View Digital Subscription Plans.
Where total confidence is required in the strength and performance of the part, Simulation removes the need for repeat design-print-break test cycles, external part analysis and the "overbuilding" of parts - adding in too much reinforcing fibre or excess infill settings.
What benefits does Simulation bring?
Simulation is an automated way to validate part performance, through the Markforged print preparation software platform, Eiger. Simulation enables the user to validate a part prior to print and select an optimised print setting (with or without fibre), based on the unique required performance parameters.
- Remove need for post-part analysis: Virtually test parts prior to printing, based on specific performance and load parameters to ensure the 3D printed parts will have the strength required for demanding industrial applications
- Reduce test cycles: Simulation is integrated into Eiger, so validating and optimising parts easily becomes part of the streamlined process for additive manufacturing, speeding up workflows and delivering the required part faster, removing the need for multiple repeat iteration test cycles
- Reduce costs of 3D printed parts: Selecting from the optimised print settings generated by Simulation ensures the correct amounts of material and continuous fibres (if required) are used. This avoids over-built parts and wasted material, making the 3D printed part even more cost-effective.
