Netfabb is delivered with multiple utilities aimed at getting your product from design to manufacture. The utilities are accessed from the System menu.
The utilities are only available in the Ultimate subscription.
Optimization Utility
Optimization Utility is used to enhance 3D parts using lattice optimization and topology optimization.
Simulation Utility
Simulation Utility is the graphical user interface for the nonlinear finite-element thermo-mechanical solvers for additive manufacturing processes available in the
Netfabb ecosystem.
Simulation Utility comes in two flavors: Autodesk® Simulation Utility LT for Netfabb®, which is included with Netfabb to prepare for, and access, solving on the cloud, and Simulation Utility itself, which is bundled with the separate product Autodesk® Netfabb® Local Simulation.
Advanced Toolpath Utility
Advanced Toolpath Utility is a development environment based upon a generic driver platform for additive manufacturing machines, which is used by
Netfabb to generate machine-specific build data.
Lattice Topology Utility
Lattice Topology Utility is a tool to define your own unit topologies for import into
Optimization Utility.
