Today is the last day of the SOLIDWORKS World 2017 conference in Los Angeles, and the big announcements just keep rolling out. Stratasys announced that it is partnering up with Dassault Systèmes, in order to "provide next generation design tools that improve the functionality, efficiency and weight ratio" of parts that are produced through additive manufacturing. The two companies have teamed up to optimize the simulation and design capabilities of Dassault Systèmes' 3DEXPERIENCE platform, which does support the FDM 3D printers and materials owned by Stratasys. You can tune in to a live, joint webinar next Thursday, February 16, titled "Simulation-Drive Design and 3D Printing with Dassault Systèmes and Stratasys," to learn more about the collaboration.
