This is the first of a series of blogs (and presentations) focusing on Design for Additive Manufacturing in the context of Industrial Design. This blog explores topology optimization for a bike wheel focusing on three mutually perpendicular loads: radial loads, tangential loads, and lateral loads.
Generative Design is getting a lot of attention — but what is it exactly? Here is why the current Generative Design concepts fall short and how nTop’s alternative approach enables you to unlock its full potential today.
At the end of 2020, the Danish Technological Institute (DTI) and nTopology joined forces in a new collaboration about topology optimization.
What is 3D printing? This article goes over the basics of 3D printing, otherwise known as additive manufacturing, covering its engineering principles and applications.

In this episode, we explore how researchers have developed an AI system that can watch a 3D print as it's being made, detect mistakes, and automatically correct them before the print fails
Unlock increased productivity with the BigRep ONE.5X, a cutting-edge large-scale FDM 3D printing.
A live panel on how China, Europe, and the US are building, certifying, and reconciling additive manufacturing standards, and where those approaches still don't line up.
What is Swiss machining? This guide explains how Swiss-type lathes work, how they differ from conventional lathes, and when to use them.
What is a CNC router? This guide explains how a CNC router works, what it is built from, the materials it cuts, and where it fits among CNC machines.
A crystal oscillator circuit uses a quartz crystal and an amplifier to generate a highly stable frequency reference. This guide explains Pierce oscillator design, load capacitance, negative resistance, drive level, startup behavior, and frequency stability in microcontrollers and RF systems.
Learn how the AND truth table works, understand how AND gates are shown in circuit diagrams, and where they are used in real systems.
