Cognitive Design Systems is proud to announce the launch of its groundbreaking design optimization software, Cognitive Design, which is set to support Design Engineers in achieving the highest level of performance for their parts while ensuring seamless manufacturability, no matter the complexity.


 

Cognitive Design’s Main Goal: Solving the Challenges of Modern Design Engineers


Traditional CAD design processes are often hindered by a repetitive and disjointed workflow between design, simulation, analysis, and manufacturing teams. Each design iteration requires multiple reviews and adjustments, leading to time-consuming and costly back-and-forths. Furthermore, the separation of tools for design optimization and manufacturability creates silos, complicating the workflow and introducing potential errors during manual data transfers.


As Design Engineers strive to push the boundaries of performance, the complexity of designs increases, making it challenging to balance optimal performance with manufacturability. Engineers often find themselves acting as project managers, coordinating inputs from various stakeholders, each with different requirements and feedback. This process not only adds complexity but also increases the risk of errors and delays in the design optimization process.

Cognitive Design addresses these challenges by providing a unified platform that integrates design optimization with manufacturability, streamlining the entire workflow and reducing the need for manual adjustments. This comprehensive software solution reduces the time needed for Design Engineers to achieve optimal part performance. 

 


Cognitive Design: Optimize Manufacturable Designs and Accelerate Your Design Workflows 


Cognitive Design empowers engineers to create high-performance, manufacturable parts from the design stage using advanced, easy-to-use tools. The software is designed to adapt to the needs and expectations of users, regardless of their experience level. 



  • Achieve Maximal Performance for Any Part 


Leveraging its powerful proprietary engine, Cognitive Design allows Design Engineers to effectively identify geometric optimization opportunities and easily implement them using simulation-driven parametric design. The software helps engineers to find the best weight reduction options by efficiently creating optimal shapes that meet and exceed mechanical requirements. These precise modifications are enabled by advanced features such as variable TPMS infill, lattice infill, offset, shell, and ribbing. Cognitive Design also enhances the performance of topologically optimized designs by allowing engineers to modify the entire part geometry or focus on specific regions.

  • Generate Manufacturable Designs and Strengthen the Connection with Your Production Floor


With Cognitive Design, potential manufacturing flaws such as wall deformation and feature distortion, can be quickly identified and prevented during the design stage by using advanced manufacturing analysis tools. The software’s manufacturing-driven design approach ensures maximum design feasibility, regardless of complexity, by enabling precise adjustments to geometry, offset and ribbing thickness, thermal concentration, holes, and powder removal parameters. Its unique proprietary geometric engine allows for easy refinement of geometry to ensure manufacturability, bridging the gap between design and production and streamlining the concept-to-product flow by reducing design iterations.
