Dyndrite LPBF Pro Metal AM Build Preparation Software

Dyndrite Corporation is a Seattle-based industrial software company founded in February 2016 by CEO Harshil Goel. It builds geometry and compute tools for additive manufacturing, addressing slow, manual and error-prone build preparation and the cost of qualifying metal parts for production. It raised a Series A led by Google's Gradient Ventures and opened its first European office in 2020.

Dyndrite LPBF Pro is built on the Dyndrite Accelerated Computation Engine (ACE), a multi-threaded, GPU-accelerated kernel with Python automation. It lets additive, materials, quality and production engineers automate build preparation, control laser toolpaths at the vector level, develop new parameter sets and run a Delta Qualification framework across machines from different OEMs. Machine builders license the Application Development Kit to create their own software, as HP did with its Universal Build Manager. Users serve aerospace, rocketry, automotive, medical, energy and contract manufacturing.

• GPU-accelerated engine: ACE processes complex geometry and many file types natively at high speed.
• Additive CAM: automated build preparation, supports and toolpaths for laser powder bed fusion.
• Vector-level laser control: feature-based parameters for power, speed and scan strategy.
• Python automation: scripts automate routines, reports and traceability for repeatable quality.
• Delta Qualification: a data-driven framework for qualifying processes across OEM platforms.
• Application Development Kit: machine builders license the engine to create their own build software.

Vietnamese research institutes and universities operating metal LPBF machines can develop parameter sets for new alloys with fine laser control. Metal printing service providers serving aerospace and energy customers can automate build preparation and documentation for qualification. Mold makers using metal printers can optimise toolpaths for inserts with conformal cooling.

Engineers replace manual build preparation with automated, scriptable workflows; in an Impossible Objects case study Dyndrite reports 10 times faster data build time, 90% less manual labour and 20% better build block utilisation. Vector-level laser control helps print difficult features, expand material parameter sets and increase build rates. The Delta Qualification approach aims to reduce repeated performance qualification when machines or parameters change.

Metal additive manufacturing is moving from R&D into serial production in aerospace, defence, energy and medical devices, where qualification cost and build preparation time are the main bottlenecks. Software that gives open, machine-independent control of laser parameters is gaining importance as manufacturers run fleets from several OEMs. Research institutes and emerging metal AM service providers in Southeast Asia face the same need to develop parameters and qualify parts efficiently.
