LIFT Off Webinar Presented by Thermo-Calc

Join us on March 19th for another LIFT Off Webinar

“Enhanced Additive Manufacturing Process Modeling Through CALPHAD Integration” presented by Adam Hope of Thermo-Calc Software!

Discover How CALPHAD Enhances Additive Manufacturing Simulation Accuracy!

At Thermo-Calc Software, we provide software and databases that empower materials scientists and engineers to generate data for designing better materials and optimizing processing conditions.

In this webinar, we’ll explore how integrating CALPHAD-based material property calculations into finite element (FE) simulations enhances the accuracy of Additive Manufacturing (AM) process modeling. Using real-world examples, including NIST AM-Bench test series for alloy 718, we will demonstrate how Thermo-Calc Software’s Additive Manufacturing Modules advanced material property inputs improve simulation predictions—closely matching experimental melt pool sizes. We’ll also examine how this methodology can be leveraged to develop predictive printability maps, helping to optimize AM processes and mitigate defects.
