sphereneRHINO

Introduction

The spherene integration for Rhino, sphereneRHINO is a powerful design tool that enables you to design and create spherene™ metamaterial, a new class of minimal surfaces based on Adaptive Density Minimal Surface (ADMS) geometry.

With sphereneRHINO, you can locally tweak the density, thickness and more, while retaining the inherent properties of a minimal surface (zero mean curvature). This adaptability extends to conforming with surrounding geometry, making spherene a versatile choice for various 3D printing methods.

Spherene® metamaterial Key Features:

  • Isotropy: Optimal Stress Dispersion
  • Redundancy: High Failure Tolerance
  • Surface Conformity: Industry's Only Surface Conformal Minimal Surface
  • Rapid Iteration: sphereneRHINO, fast & user-friendly design tools to accelerate your workflow, conserve time, and prioritize your design vision
