Since 2017, TEN TECH LLC has been working on an innovative design involving Metal Additive 3D Printing. This design replaces a traditional VITA 48.2 Single Board Computer Primary Cover, traditionally made of machined aluminum, with an internal lattice structure. This Internal Research & Development effort has been highlighted by Military Embedded Systems and presented at conferences such as EDICON and iMAPS Symposium.

At the core of this design is intense performance evaluation by simulation, made possible by the real-time GPU-based simulation tools built in ANSYS Discovery Live. Read the ANSYS case study "TEN TECH Thinks Inside the Box to Create Innovative Single-Board Computer Packaging"
