Altair's new partnership with HP Inc. aims to enhance the former's Material Data Center by incorporating proprietary material data from the latter. This collaboration will have implications for the design and production of 3D-printed parts as the Material Data Center provides designers, engineers, and scientists with comprehensive material information. The integration of HP's data will allow users to access accurate material properties, enabling more efficient design processes, structural analysis, and the prediction of manufacturing defects.
The partnership between Altair and HP Inc. addresses a significant challenge in the 3D printing industry — the gap between design and production due to limited access to reliable material data. The Material Data Center attempts to do just this in order to streamline the workflow for creating and optimizing 3D-printed parts, thus reducing prototyping time and waste.
