AM PravaH® – Advanced CFD and 3D Simulation Software for Additive Manufacturing

Unleashing the Power of Additive Manufacturing Simulation for Next-Gen Industries

AM PravaH® is a GUI-based, high-performance simulation software designed specifically for additive manufacturing. Developed by Paanduv R&D, it combines advanced computational modeling with parallelized processing and state-of-the-art numerical methods contributed by global research leaders as well as in-house expertise.

Computational Modeling Capabilities – The current version of AM PravaH® offers advanced modeling of additive manufacturing processes across both macroscale and microscale levels. As a high-performance CFD-based simulation tool, it delivers precise insights into particle dynamics for metal powder–based AM processes. At the macroscale, it captures critical phenomena such as laser dynamics, melt pool behavior, phase changes, solidification, Marangoni effects, heat and mass transfer, and surface tension. At the microscale, the software models grain structure, grain size, and grain morphology. Additionally, an integrated deep learning module helps predict process parameters and build quality by leveraging experimental and simulation data.

FAQs

1. LPBF is a complex process, and there are too many parameters. How to optimize the parameters without doing too many experiments and spending an enormous time?

Simulation software that emphasizes process modeling can be useful in this case. AM PravaH® is the best example in this context. It helps you understand the in-depth physics. Due to the small timescales and highly transient nature of the melt flow, it is very challenging to reveal the dynamic behavior within the melt pool.

2. I am getting a lot of defects in my build layers. How can I remove the defects and build a defect-free part?

You can perform a small single-track run by varying your process parameters using AM PravaH®  at a comparatively lower accuracy. By varying the parameters, you will have a good idea of the ranges you want to operate in to get defect-free parts. Do a final run with high accuracy to ensure that there are no defects. 

3. Can it give results quickly?

You can do a small single-track run by varying your process parameters at comparatively lower accuracy. By varying the parameters, you will have a good idea of the ranges you want to operate in to get defect-free parts. Do a final run with high accuracy in AM PravaH®   to ensure that there are no defects. 

4. Can we run it on the cloud?

No, the software can not be operated on the cloud. We ensure complete data security.

5. How do you ensure data security?

AM PravaH® Software runs in a standalone manner with no data exchange after installation.
