The NODiVEC Rheona Software Platform for Metal Additive Manufacturing

Predict the part  

​Rheona is a physics-grade simulation platform that models the entire metal additive manufacturing chain - transient thermal history, residual stress and distortion, and viscous sintering shrinkage - on an accelerated FEM engine built for production speed.

THE COST OF GUESSING

Every failed build is metal, machine time, and a deadline - gone.

Metal AM parts warp, crack, and shrink in ways a CAD model never shows. Rheona replaces trial-and-error on the machine with predictive physics on the desktop, so the first build is the right build.

ONE PLATFORM, THREE PHYSICS

The whole process chain, coupled.

Most tools simulate one slice. Rheona links thermal, mechanical, and sintering physics through a shared, cache-optimized FEM core.

Residual Stress & Distortion

A dual-path structural solver computes the locked-in stress and warpage that determine whether a part survives cutoff from the plate — or springs out of tolerance.

Transient Thermal

Layer-by-layer deposition with flash-heating melt pools, dynamic top-surface convection, and Arrhenius-accurate temperature fields driving everything downstream.

Viscous Sintering

Velocity-based viscous solver tracks 15%+ shrinkage, gravity slump, and setter friction through a full furnace cycle, with live relative-density evolution.

Meet the Rheona

CoEngineer

The AI assistant that reviews every simulation, finds the problem areas, and tells you in plain language what to change to fix them — all running locally, on your own hardware.
​

✓ Assesses your result — automatically flags hotspots, stress peaks, and out-of-tolerance regions.
 

✓ Recommends the fix — concrete, prioritized actions, and it can launch the comparison run for you.
 

✓ Stays private — runs entirely on your machine. No data ever leaves the building.
