Problem-Solving Materials: Utilizing 3D Data Part 5 | Non-Destructive Testing Using 3D Data

What is a new evaluation method for design and manufacturing using topology optimization? A resource for discovering and solving issues in the production field.

This document is a series that proposes solutions to various challenges faced in production sites, from identifying issues to finding solutions. In the "Utilization of 3D Data" edition, we will introduce various solutions to manufacturing challenges through the use of 3D data. In Vol. 5, we will focus on "Topology Optimization and Product Evaluation Methods," presenting non-destructive testing utilizing 3D data. [Document Overview] With the advent of metal 3D printers and the development of manufacturing technologies, there have been various changes in design methods. Among these, design utilizing topology optimization has recently gained attention. It significantly contributes to reducing manufacturing costs and improving performance through substantial weight reduction and integration of parts. However, the shapes derived by software are often complex, posing challenges for evaluation using traditional methods. This document will introduce two essential points necessary for evaluating products that use new design and manufacturing methods, as well as the optimal inspection methods. *You can download the document using the button below.*
