Exa® Corporation announced that it has partnered with ESTECO SpA, a provider of numerical optimization solutions to integrate their products and offer a seamless solution for simulation-driven design space exploration and optimization. Improved product energy efficiency is expected by consumers and mandated by industry regulators. It is becoming one of the most important engineering goals in product development, yet finding areas of improvement to reach these efficiency goals has become increasingly more difficult. To identify areas of opportunity for product efficiency improvement, every potential design change must be analyzed and the potential performance impact understood. The integration node between ESTECO modeFRONTIER and Exa PowerFLOW® will allow manufacturing companies to leverage fully-accurate simulation and advanced algorithms to automatically find optimal combinations for maximum efficiency improvement. "As industry eliminates physical prototyping and moves to a digital design process, companies face the issue that it is simply impossible to manually evaluate the impact of changing a large

Delcam are embracing the new era of mass customisation within the Additive Manufacturing (AM) orthotic design industry. Utilising 30 years + experience in subtractive manufacturing, Delcam have now embarked on integrating the increasingly sophisticated AM technology into the custom orthotic insole solution designs using research conducted with customers all over the world. Back in 2010 Delcam first looked at AM for the orthotics and prosthetics industry; working with Adrian Bowyer of Bath University using a RepRap to print custom PLA insoles. More recently with Delcam’s orthotics solution software, OrthoMODEL, the Healthcare team were able to transfer the surface data across into ArtCAM (Delcam’s artistic CAD/CAM package).  By combining the functionality of these two software packages, Delcam have been able to generate and print a series of concept designs which demonstrate some of the possibilities for AM orthotics. The process comprised of creating the orthotic designs within OrthoMODEL and importing into ArtCAM where additional
