Formula-Driven Lattice with Wall Thickness Based on Simulation Results

A new capability in Creo allows you to create formula-driven lattice structures with wall thickness that varies dynamically based on simulation results.

Key Benefits:

  • Stress-Based Wall Thickness Variation: Map FEA (finite element analysis) results to your lattice-containing part. Wall thickness adjusts according to the stress path, resulting in:
    • Higher Density: Thicker walls in areas of higher stress.
    • Lower Density: Thinner walls in areas of lower stress.
  • Optimized Design: Create components such as heat exchangers that are lightweight yet robust enough to withstand structural loads.
  • Seamless Integration: This feature is integrated into the regular Creo environment, providing a smooth workflow.
