Revolutionizing Manufacturing – Fabric8Labs Advances ECAM 3D Printing Technology with Altair One

Fabric8Labs is revolutionizing manufacturing with its proprietary Electrochemical Additive Manufacturing (ECAM) technology. The Fabric8Labs team relies on advanced tools to optimize component designs for their customers’ chip power maps, simulate high-resolution antenna elements, and customize product designs to reduce size, weight, and power needs — but running solvers locally on workstations created a bottleneck. To expand its computing resources, Fabric8Labs worked with TrueInsight to implement the Altair One® cloud innovation gateway. Altair One gave the Fabric8Labs team instant access to powerful computing resources in the cloud, where they used Google Cloud credits to create bring-your-own-cloud appliances in Altair One and run large solver jobs, including Altair® AcuSolve® jobs with between 8 million and 150 million elements. With Altair One the Fabric8Labs team more than tripled their throughput on models/iterations per day.
