Materialise 3-matic
3-matic allows you to refine and modify rough data from sources like CAD designs, topology-optimized models, simulations, or scanned files by editing directly on the mesh. It helps boost productivity by enabling the addition of 3D textures, lattice and conformal structures, and automated scripting to efficiently produce a variety of validation samples for 3D printing.

Features
Post-topology optimization tools: Refine rough surfaces to avoid complex freeform modeling and reduce stress concentrations during FEA when converting mesh to CAD.
Textures, patterns, and perforations: Apply functional or aesthetic textures, patterns, and perforations to complex 3D shapes within STL files using the Texturing Module.
Lattice, conformal, and porous structures: Design internal and external structures that enhance strength, cushioning, porosity, or reduce weight with the Lattice Module.
Convert mesh to CAD: Transform mesh files into parametric CAD models using the CAD Link Module, which identifies analytical shapes for easy conversion.
Automate your design workflow: Speed up tasks and processes with the Scripting Module’s Python API, 3-matic object access, and powerful toolkit.
