Generative Design, Prototyping, and CNC Milling
Generative design is disrupting the way manufacturing has been done from both a practical and philosophical standpoint – with a perspective rooted in an appreciation for the natural world and evolution, specifically. “Evolution has, over billions of years, perfected the animal and plant species that populate the planet, discarding less than optimal designs in favor of those that can survive and thrive,” writes Rani Richardson for Industry Week.
What is Generative Design?
But the goal here is for Artificial Intelligence (software) to generate a design or many designs that solve the problem by addressing the criteria. So, Generative Design does not necessarily mean faster although faster could be one of the criteria. Once the designs are completed, the engineer can choose the one that best suits their needs.
