The Distortion Compensation Add-on is a tool for correcting distortions caused by the manufacturing process. Enhancements include:
Export compensated CAD geometry: You can now export a compensated geometry in a Discovery CAD (.dsco) file format. Previously, only an .stl format was available. This feature allows you to transform/morph the original CAD geometry using the deformed compensation data. Internally, this feature uses a Discovery API (the Ansys Discovery™ application must be installed) to perform geometry transformation. At least two successful iterations on an Iterative Compensation or a Single Compensation result object are required to generate modified CAD geometry.
