Inspire is an application used in the early stages of a design process, ideally, allowing designers and design engineers to explore form and shape reduction finding while also simulating assemblies and dynamic systems.

This latest version advances the tool in the direction of additive manufacturing and importantly adds solid-lattice mix structures, an area in advanced manufacturing design that is finding appeal. “Inspire integrates well into large manufacturing enterprises for rapid simulation and “lightweighting” insights, and has an intuitive user experience that is ideal for small and medium-sized businesses with little or no simulation experience.” You can download a free trial version of the software on SolidThinking’s website.01 – Altair’s Inspire 2018 supports optimization and simulation on both lattice and solid-lattice compound components and parts. Thanks to Inspire software, you can create structurally efficient concepts quickly and easily. For instance, Solidthinking Inspire helps you to build a smooth and efficient rapid prototyping process by generating great 3D designs, that match your expectations. You can then turn your 3D models into real objects thanks to additive manufacturing. Indeed, it enables design possibilities that are ambitious, either for industrial design, either to create architectural designs or consumer products. The applications of Solidthinking Inspire software are numerous.

The complex shapes obtained with this software are often impossible to manufacture with traditional means of production, and that’s why Solidthinking Inspire allows users to fully use additive manufacturing’s potential. Where a common structural calculation software is used to confirm that a build can support a given load case, Inspire software creates an optimized geometry inside a volume specified by the user to resist at best the efforts (using mathematical calculations). This software allows engineers, designers and architects to quickly and effectively form and study structural models. Inspire is an ergonomic and noticeably powerful CAD software, especially known for its topologic optimization function, created by SolidThinking.
