Innovative Cooperation between Substance and CoreTechnologie:
Seamless Workflow from Digital to Physical Model
3D printing is on the advance in the world of industrial design. In order to take
the surface design options to the next level, the 3D expert Substance and the
software innovator CoreTechnologie have entered into a unique symbiosis.
Moembris, 23/06/20 (ab) - The 3D expert Substance and the innovation company
CoreTechnologie are now working together to increase their synergy potential in
terms of 3D printing. CoreTechnologie brings the innovations of the additive
manufacturing software 4D_Additive, while Substance contributes the expertise in 3D
printing with textured surfaces.
Surface Design with Unlimited Possibilities
With the innovative 3D printing software from CoreTechnologie, designers can
choose from over 5,000 different surfaces from Substance and project components
onto 3D printing in no time at all. The revolutionary merger of virtual reality (VR) and
3D printing technology creates completely new possibilities in the design of
components.
3D Printing with the Highest Quality
With the simple and direct manufacturing technology of 3D printing, it is important
that the CAD models sent to the printer are checked for their quality and, if
necessary, closed, since only flawless solids are suitable for printing. The preparation
of CAD models for 3D printing requires high accuracy in terms of topology, especially
with textures, which have continuous surface transitions and must be watertight in
order to avoid errors in the printing result. The strength of the 4D_Additive software is
a quick quality analysis as well as an automatic and manual repair of the exact CAD
models, which are read in from all common formats such as CATIA, SOLIDWORKS,
CREO, NX as well as STEP and JT.

Precise Workflow from Digital to Physical Model
With the Substance Engine SDK and the integration of its functions in 4D_Additive
the software now allows for an easy access to an advanced surface design of 3D
printed components. By this means the user can “play” with over 5.000 predefined
textures from the Substance Source which ever-growing collection of materials offers
great freedom in product design. In the 4D_Additive software, users can create
different variations of the object, experiment with variable high-end renderings,
visualize them in real time and display the effects on the object. Revolutionary
surface designs for parts with a distinctive look can be created quickly and easily.
The unique approach of the software based on the exact CAD-Models allows for a
direct visual inspection and guarantees a high level of accuracy. Due to the
consistent precision from the virtual world to the physical result, very precise VR
models in photo-realistic quality are created, as are perfect 3D printing models.
The innovative synergy of substance and CoreTechnologie is interesting for the
automotive, aerospace and medical industry as well as all industries that need
structural models with individual and new design surfaces.
