Major updates make it the fastest, most powerful version to date.

• LimitState release a new version of LimitState:FORM, their cutting-edge design optimization tool for additive manufacture.
• In Version 3.4 a major update of the solver engine increases optimization speeds by up to 9x and incorporates faster, more robust simplification and editing tools.
• Software to be showcased at Develop3D Live event in Sheffield on 17th April.

5th April 2019 -- Sheffield, UK - Leading engineering software developer LimitState will be showcasing Version 3.4 of its innovative design optimization tool LimitState:FORM at the upcoming Develop3D Live event in Sheffield, UK.

LimitState:FORM significantly reduces the time and effort needed to design strong and light truss forms for components and structures. The software provides high fidelity solutions far more quickly than traditional topology optimization or “generative design” tools. The new release, version 3.4, includes major enhancements:

• Substantial speed increases - up to 9x faster solve times provide a boost to productivity.
• Simplification tools improved and expanded - under the hood enhancements mean that component simplification is faster and more robust, with a number of new features added to automatically identify and address unwanted structural complexity.

“At LimitState our focus is on providing designers with the tools to engineer more intelligent, efficient solutions, in as short as possible time. From the outset, speed of optimization and simplicity of workflow has been a major driving force in the development of LimitState:FORM,” said Matthew Gilbert, LimitState’s Managing Director. “The enhancements in this latest version build on those core principles to provide engineers with an incredibly powerful, yet easy to use, design optimization tool that is unlike any other on the market.”

Develop3D Live is the UK’s leading conference celebrating design, engineering and manufacturing technology and will be held in Sheffield on April 17th. LimitState will be demonstrating the capabilities of LimitState:FORM on Stand 55.

About LimitState:FORM

LimitState:FORM is a powerful software application for engineers wanting to quickly design strong and light components and structures. The software is the ideal tool for exploiting the design freedoms associated with additive manufacturing. It automatically identifies minimum-weight truss designs for specified material stress or deflection limits, generating highly efficient structural forms. By working with solid CAD geometries rather than low-level meshes, solutions can be immediately and easily edited - a unique capability among current-generation optimization tools. LimitState:FORM addresses a critical need for fast, effective workflow for design engineers targeting additive manufacture.

About LimitState

LimitState was established in 2006 as an engineering software house specializing in embedding cutting-edge optimization techniques in engineering analysis and design software. With a track record of delivering class-leading software products, their tools are used by many of the world's largest and most innovative engineering firms, in over 30 countries globally. In the field of additive manufacturing the company also develops the LimitState:FIX product which makes industrial strength mesh fixing technology available to a wide audience.
