Christopher Crowley’s Post

I'm super excited to share that I will be joining 3D Metal Konsulting LLC Kara, Kevin Ayers (AMUG🦕) and Zayna Connor, Ph.D. at RAPID + TCT this year! I will be showcasing the latest simulation workflows for Laser Powder Bed Fusion (#LPBF #PBF) and Directed Energy Deposition (#DED) using Ansys software! The latest #AMsimulation wizards in #AnsysMechanical flatten the learning curve, remove the need for custom #APDL scripting, and therefore make simulation an out-of-the-box tool for your #DfaM process. #additivemanufacturing #AMdistortionprediction #distortioncompensation

Are you curious how virtual prototyping and real-world testing revolutionize #vehicle development cycles? Join us on September 26 for an exclusive event with ESI and Keysight leaders and industry experts to find out. Save your spot today: https://ow.ly/lZvJ50Tgng0

ONSITE3D is all setup at the 23rd Annual Shutdowns Turnarounds Superconference hosted by Canadian Institute! If you're at the conference today and tomorrow stop by to learn about 3D scanning, turnaround simulations, and robotic pipe fabrication. #Shutdowns #Turnarounds #PioneeringTheFuture
