1000 Kelvin’s AMAIZE now available as part of Autodesk Fusion 360
March 14, 2024
1000 Kelvin, headquartered in Berlin, Germany, has announced the availability of its recently launched AMAIZE software as a plug-in for Autodesk’s Fusion integrated CAD/CAM software platform Autodesk Fusion 360.
AMAIZE uses machine learning models informed by physics and manufacturing data to predict design and build issues and then output optimal build files that result in successful builds. As a result, engineers using Additive Manufacturing can eliminate physical trial and error cycles, and handle more complex parts which would otherwise require extensive and time-consuming design iterations.
“Availability of AMAIZE on the Autodesk App Store is set to transform manufacturing operations,” said Katharina Eissing, CTO and co-founder of 1000 Kelvin. “This integration will improve manufacturing productivity by increasing uptime, significantly reducing lead times, bolstering process stability, and expediting the training process for staff to gain expertise in 3D printing. I am very excited to partner with Autodesk to democratise Additive Manufacturing.”
These improvements are said to be particularly beneficial for precision Additive Manufacturing companies that are currently facing challenges due to escalating costs and an ageing workforce.
“One of AI’s greatest benefits is its ability to simplify complex processes, expanding access to powerful technology beyond a small circle of domain experts,” stated Stephen Hooper, Autodesk Vice President, Design & Manufacturing Product Development. “By automating the setup and programming of industrial-grade print processes, 1000 Kelvin’s AI, integrated with Autodesk Fusion in the cloud, unlocks the opportunity for a much broader pool of professionals to be successful with Additive Manufacturing. I’m very excited to be offering AMAIZE to Fusion users.”
“One of the main challenges in the manufacturing industry, and especially the US today, is the talent shortage, which is holding companies back from scaling to fulfil fast-growing demand in the market,” shared Omar Fergani, CEO and co-founder of 1000 Kelvin. “Our AI co-pilot AMAIZE is an enabler to overcoming this hurdle, helping companies secure their know-how.”
AMAIZE is now publicly available from the Autodesk App Store.
