The ideal software for your AM experience

Mechanical Design
The friendly and intuitive UI allows users to quickly set up complex loading conditions like forces and moment, pressure, acceleration and vibrations. Quick optimization times and high quality models make CogniCAD the best Generative Design software on the market. Models can be exported as STL and STEP files with smooth surfaces. There is no remodeling needed.

Thermal Design
Heat Conduction Topology Optimization allows design of passive cooling devices and heat sinks. Thermal loads are heat flux applied on faces or volumetric heat applied on volume bodies (mimicking conduction and convection). Create high complex designs with the push of a button.

Reverse Engineering
Upload your STL or PLY files and receive a heald and watertight STL file and a STEP file within minutes.
Finally there is a great solution to go from mesh back to cad!

Support Structures
CogniCAD offers fully automated 1-click design of support structures with full control over all parameters like overhang angle, lattice size, beam width and contact point thickness, total and penetration lengths. The output is a STL file and ready for AM.
