Altair Sulis
What is Altair Sulis™?
Altair Sulis™ is a next-generation CAD tool designed specifically for additive manufacturing.
Formerly known as Gen3D, Sulis empowers engineers to create complex geometries, lightweight lattice structures, and intricate fluid channels with ease.
This purpose-built platform allows users to design with the principles of additive manufacturing in mind.
Starting with primitive geometry or imported CAD files, users can generate optimised lattice structures and fluid flow systems with just a few clicks.
Whether you’re working on mass reduction, material efficiency, or internal cooling channels, Sulis provides the tools to bring your designs to life.
With the growing adoption of 3D printing and additive manufacturing across industries, Altair Sulis ensures you stay ahead of the curve.
Its intuitive interface and powerful design tools make it easier than ever to create, analyse, and refine innovative products for manufacturing.

Key features of Altair Sulis™
The Altair Sulis™ platform is purpose-built to streamline design processes for additive manufacturing. With intuitive workflows and easy-to-use tools, users can create intricate geometries, seamless fluid channels, and customisable lattice structures.
Create Complex and Advanced Shapes
Easily design and modify complex and organic shapes using the intuitive Sulis interface. The platform’s user-friendly design and additive-focused workflows enable rapid development of efficient designs. Whether you’re working with primitive geometry or imported CAD models, Sulis helps you create advanced shapes with minimal effort.
Fluid Channel Creation
The Sulis Flow module allows users to design fluid systems within 3D models. Users can add fluid pathways, such as 3D splines, helical cooling channels, and conformal flow paths, directly into imported designs. The self-supporting designs reduce the need for post-processing, ensuring faster and more cost-effective production.
Simple Lattice Creation
Create custom lattice structures like surface, strut, stochastic, and planar lattices. Users can blend multiple lattice types into a single part for optimised performance. Adjust cell size, density, and material usage to achieve the perfect balance between strength and weight. Reduce material consumption and improve structural integrity with a few simple adjustments.

Altair Sulis is a simulation software used to model and analyse X-ray computed tomography (CT) inspection processes. It allows engineers to simulate how parts are scanned and inspected using CT technology.
Altair Sulis is used to simulate CT scanning for non-destructive testing and inspection. Engineers use it to evaluate inspection feasibility, scan setup, and defect detectability before performing physical CT scans.
Altair Sulis supports CT inspection analysis for industrial components, including complex geometries and internal features. It is commonly used to assess internal defects, dimensional accuracy, and inspection coverage.
Altair Sulis helps engineers understand how X-ray CT scans interact with part geometry and material properties. This supports better planning of non-destructive inspection processes without physically damaging the component.
Altair Sulis is commonly used by quality engineers, inspection specialists, and manufacturing engineers involved in CT-based inspection and validation of manufactured parts.
Altair Sulis can be used during inspection and quality planning stages. It allows engineers to assess whether CT inspection is suitable for a part and to plan inspection strategies before production or testing.
Altair Sulis is typically used alongside manufacturing and quality workflows. It supports inspection planning and validation before or during production to improve confidence in inspection outcomes.
Altair Sulis helps engineers evaluate CT inspection feasibility digitally, reduce trial-and-error during inspection setup, and improve understanding of inspection limitations and capabilities.
Altair Sulis is designed to complement manufacturing and simulation workflows. It can be used alongside design and manufacturing simulation tools to support end-to-end validation.
For accurate pricing, licensing options, and package guidance, customers should contact Simutron directly. Licensing and packages depend on specific inspection and quality requirements.
