Accurate, reliable and traceable material information is crucial for additive manufacturing. The combination of ANSYS' powerful simulation for metal powder bed AM with Granta's existing GRANTA MI: Materials Gateway for ANSYS Workbench offers an integrated set of workflows for AM data capture, simulation and optimization. That enables users to directly access and use validated materials data stored in their GRANTA MI corporate materials database, while working in ANSYS®Workbench. Users can quickly apply accurate, traceable input data, saving time and increasing confidence in simulation results. The companies are also working to connect ANSYS® Additive Print TM to GRANTA MI.
