Process reliability as a differentiator
For machine builders and service bureaus, physics is not an end in itself — it is a selling point. The GENESIS API brings the simulation straight into your software or your production pipeline.
What makes this industry difficult
Throughput, integration and a differentiator beyond price: anyone selling additive manufacturing as a service, or selling machines, competes on reliability. A shifting part mix across many customers and machines makes experience-led preparation expensive.
What GENESIS does
Where the physics pays off
GENESIS API
Thermal simulation and strategy generation as an interface into automated additive manufacturing processes.
Open to machines and materials
Already evaluated on seven OEM platforms, with demonstrated overhang angles per material.
Transfers to new geometries
A shifting part mix is exactly the case where a computed method beats an experience-led one.
Typical parts

What you are trying to solve
Support-free printingSupport structures are not a design feature. They are a consequence of uncontrolled heat — and steering heat flow before the build removes most of the need for them.Distortion controlDistortion does not happen at random. It follows the heat distribution in the part — and that can be computed and influenced before the build.Process stabilityOn high-power machines, thin walls and sharp corners have forced a compromise: productivity or quality. Locally controlled laser power removes that trade-off.Serial productionSerial production starts where unit costs can be calculated. Deterministic process behaviour is the precondition — and the point at which prototyping becomes production.QualificationBringing a new machine and material combination into service is normally a project. With GENESIS it is a calibration with a clearly defined scope.
Frequently asked questions
What exactly does the GENESIS API do?
It exposes Fast Heat Simulation and simulation-based strategy generation as an interface, so both run inside automated pipelines rather than depending on a desktop application.
Can we ship GENESIS with our machine?
Worth a conversation — integration into LPBF systems is one of the two ways GENESIS is used.
How much work is connecting a new machine?
Calibration for a machine and material combination needs two factors and two build jobs, thermal and mechanical.
Is the simulation fast enough for our throughput?
A complete build job can be prepared simulation-based in 82 seconds — fast enough to run at a productive cadence.
