Print it right the first time.

The cloud Physics-AI platform for metal AM. Predict melt-pool, microstructure and residual stress before you print — then tune the process to build it faster.

§ 01

Learn once. Predict at part scale.

High-fidelity physics is too slow to run over a whole part — so we learn it once, then predict in minutes.

01 · Simulate

High-fidelity physics

Melt-pool thermal history and solidification microstructure — the ground truth.

FusionCoreGrainPath
02 · Learn

Train the surrogate

Thousands of runs swept across the process window, fit to a Physics-AI model.

FusionMapGrainMap
03 · Predict

Part scale, in minutes

Residual stress and distortion across the whole part — no meso-scale solve in the loop.

StressForge
04 · Optimize

Close the loop

Search the process window to cut stress and distortion while holding build rate.

ProcessPilot
§ 02

One connected pipeline

Geometry → verdict

Each stage consumes the contract the stage before it emits. No manual handoff, no re-exporting between tools.

§ 03

Minutes, not days

What changes when the whole chain lives in one cloud platform and the expensive physics is learned up front.

Residual stress
Minutes
Part-scale via surrogates — vs. days of chained solves.
Deployment
Zero installs
Runs in a browser tab — vs. a workstation and a licence server.
Qualification
Before you print
Defect maps and pass/fail gates — vs. trial builds.
§ 04

Where it has to be right first time

Aerospace

Flight-critical parts, qualified before the build.

Medical

One-off titanium implants, right without trial prints.

Tooling

Pre-compensated distortion in conformal-cooling tools.

Energy

Integrity confirmed under extreme thermal load.

§ 05

CAD to qualified build

In the browser
Step 01
Upload & set the process

Import CAD, define the LPBF strategy with surface-based selection.

Step 02
Generate on the cloud

Scan path and simulation domain built on elastic infrastructure.

Step 03
Run & qualify

Solve, then explore defect maps and qualification results online.

Also in SolidNetics

The Core physics module

Beyond additive — general solid mechanics on the same cloud: finite elements, physics-informed neural networks and peridynamics.

Metal AM, simulated end to end

Stop qualifying by trial and error.

Predict melt-pool, microstructure, residual stress and defect risk before you commit powder and machine time.
