New Synera Marketplace Add-in Brings Leading Computational Design from nTop into Synera’s Platform
Unbreakable Geometry for Design Space Exploration
nTop is computational design software that enables rapid design exploration and optimization through unbreakable parametric models. Unlike traditional CAD, nTop uses implicit modeling to maintain model stability across dramatic geometry changes, enabling engineers to systematically explore design spaces rather than iterate on single concepts. This makes nTop ideal for early-stage conceptual design, multidisciplinary design optimization (MDO), and advanced manufacturing applications where traditional CAD becomes a bottleneck.
Modern engineering programs demand rapid evaluation of thousands of design variants to identify optimal solutions - but traditional CAD and simulation workflows can't keep pace. Parametric models break when parameters change dramatically. Meshing bottlenecks slow analysis. Manual workflow orchestration limits exploration to dozens of concepts when thousands are needed.
Not anymore!
The new nTop Add-In brings another powerful, simulation-driven design optimization solution to the Synera Platform, where workflows can rely on nTop software to create high-performing designs, run parameter updates, and analyze without meshing delays - all automated in Synera’s AI-ready platform.
Andrew Sartorelli, Synera’s Head of Product explains: "The nTop Add-In is a major step forward in our vision of end-to-end design automation for different verticals, including additive manufacturing. Engineers can now rapidly iterate on complex part designs, that are simply not designable with another design packaging, while maintaining the replayable connection between the other tools in their digital thread – all within a single automated workflow."
Daeho Hong, Senior Product Manager at nTop notes: "nTop was built from the ground up to for computational design, enabling engineers to create geometric complexities that were previously out of reach - and at a pace unmatched by other tools. Our integration with Synera means engineers can develop their parts at never seen before speeds when their process is automated by AI agents in Synera."
Systematic Design Exploration Through Integrated Workflows
To truly enable systematic design space exploration, you need workflow automation that connects geometry generation, simulation, and optimization into a continuous loop.
This is where Synera's AI Agent Platform for Engineering completes the picture. By orchestrating nTop alongside your existing simulation tools - CFD, FEA, thermal analysis - Synera enables lights-out design exploration at a scale impossible with manual workflows. Engineers can now evaluate complete design spaces rather than rely on intuition and limited sampling.
Together, nTop and Synera transform design from sequential iteration to systematic exploration - enabling better designs faster by replacing manual CAD/CAE iteration with automated, simulation-driven optimization.
Systematic Exploration and Optimization, From Concept to Manufacturing
The nTop Add-In extends Synera's workflow automation capabilities across the entire design lifecycle. Whether you're conducting early-stage design space exploration for aircraft concepts or optimizing additively manufactured components for production, the combination removes traditional bottlenecks that force engineers to evaluate dozens of concepts when thousands are needed.
With nTop's robust parametric modeling and Synera's orchestration of simulation and optimization, engineering teams can systematically explore design spaces rather than rely on manual iteration and intuition. This approach delivers better designs faster - from initial concept through manufacturing preparation.
