Carbon acquires ParaMatters to expand design software optimized for AM

Carbon, a 3D printing technology company in Redwood City, Calif., has acquired ParaMatters, a software provider for additive manufacturing. The acquisition expands Carbon's current software capabilities to include topology optimization, enabling product design and development teams to create better products in less time using a variety of materials and production systems, the company states.

The acquisition also expands Carbon's generative design software capabilities to enable increased automation and the creation of more complex part designs. These capabilities build on the company’s introduction of Design Engine earlier this year, which automates the process of developing latticed parts for production.
