nTopology introduces its third update to its software program. One of the new features is an opt-in GPU acceleration, which will deliver a 10x to 100x performance boost that makes it easier to preview design changes in real-time and regenerate parts with complex geometry in seconds. nTopology 3.0 also consolidates the recent technology improvements introduced […]
Using additive manufacturing to create lower weight and combine functions in microturbine housing
KW Micro Power, a small Florida-based manufacturer, designs and manufactures high power density Auxiliary Power Units (APUs) for commercial aviation and military applications. Over the past five years, Enrique Enriquez, president of KW Micro Power, has worked tirelessly to create a microturbine generator roughly the size of a microwave oven that can crank out more […]
3D printing for space—explore boldly
NASA recently announced future rocket engines will include large scale 3D printed parts. A number of other companies are exploring how 3D printing additive manufacturing can be used in future space projects. One company, nTopology, developed software that seamlessly combines synthesized geometry and simulation for use with advanced manufacturing tools, such as additive technology. Ryan […]

3D printing nasal swabs
At the beginning of the Covid-19 pandemic, traditional supply chains struggled to keep up with the demand for critical need medical items. One key item in particular was the nasopharyngeal swab used for sample collection during patient testing. Many production methods were shut down due to workers being quarantined. Those facilities that were able to […]
nTop Platform 2.0 overcomes the geometry bottleneck
nTopology announces the latest version of its computational-modeling software, nTop Platform 2.0, an engineering software that enables engineers to simultaneously consider geometry, performance and manufacturability within a single, reusable workflow. This release includes support for prepackaged, application-specific nTop Toolkits, letting engineers quickly learn and use its capabilities right out of the box. nTop Platform was […]
