With Creo Additive Manufacturing, you can develop innovative designs, optimize, and print to a variety of printers with ease, all within Creo. With no more time-consuming, error-ridden hassle of multiple software packages, you can reduce time-to-market and expense with rapid prototyping and enable part consolidation.
Creo Additive Manufacturing extension feature enhanced lattice capabilities with the Delaunay stochastic algorithm and hard-edge definition, enabling lattice modeling, print tray optimization, and metal printing with support structures.
Maximize design performance with lattice creation and optimization. Direct connection to Stratasys, 3D Systems, and Materialise Library printers, as well as i.materialise and 3D Systems On Demand online print service bureaus.
