Conventional engineering and manufacturing typically lead to heavier than necessary structural components and parts. This added weight demands extra fuel for transportation, which in turn increases carbon dioxide emissions contributing significantly to atmospheric warming. At Duroworks, we're committed to reshaping the future of manufacturing to address this problem.

​

We make this possible by:

  • Engineering parts that are lighter, stronger, stiffer, and optimally performing with reduced environmental impact - using AI-based Generative Design.

  • Speeding up production cycles bringing innovations to market more quickly.

  • Developing cost-effective solutions for low-volume production reducing waste and excess.

  • Simplifying complex assemblies through part consolidation for efficient use of resources.

We start where conventional structural engineering technology ends and transform heavy parts into lightweight parts to leverage the benefits of advanced manufacturing technology. 

AI ASSISTED DESIGNS

Inspired by Nature. Assisted by AI.     Driven by Engineers.

Artificial Intelligence assists in the optimization of material distribution to ensure safety, strength, and stiffness margins

INTERNAL CELL STRUCTURES

Solution for highly loaded parts.

Organic or structured cellular forms merge with solid faces to reduce weight

OPTIMIZED FUNCTIONAL PARTS

Meet or exceed operational environment requirements.

Materials, loads, and constraints are properly applied to design parts that meet their functional purpose

Bionic Structures are artificial structures that mimic the functions of natural biological structures. By drawing inspiration from nature's evolutionary efficiency, Bionic Structures can result in components that are lighter, stronger, and stiffer.

Biologically inspired structural engineering is the application of biological methods and systems found in nature to design high performance parts and components.

Ultralight Bionic Structures

As part of your team, we define the parameters that will make the part meet its operational and functional requirements. This is essential for meaningful generative design. Then, we apply our process until all requirements are met with an optimized design. Finally, we deliver digital models for Additive Manufacturing.

Structural Optimization

Topology optimization is used to distribute material according to internal loads path. Smart algorithms explore the design domain through alternative mutations to find geometries that satisfy the requirements defined by the designer while minimizing weight and maximizing strength and stiffness.

Generative Design

This revolutionary technology in conjunction with additive manufacturing can provide 10X improvements to structural parts by transforming them into Bionic Structures.

Bionic structures are multi-organizational buildings blocks of material that make strong, stiff and durable parts.

Example of functionally compliant ultralight structural parts designed by DUROWORKS

Generative Design follows the process used by evolutionary nature to design complex geometry that can be materialized with advanced manufacturing. An automated part of the process uses AI software to meet the constraints defined by the Designer and learns from many design iterations as it searches for optimized alternative solutions. The design constraints, especially the structural loads the part is subjected to, drive the alternative solutions generated by AI. The Designer applies his knowledge and human intuition to direct the process, select the most promising design, 
and refines it to ensure all design and manufacturing requirements are met.
