Design for Manufacture

Yes, you have access to l CAD, CAM, and CAE in the Product Design & Manufacturing Collection.

To become more productive, it maybe is of interest to have your staff trained in the use of CAD data during the design for manufacture stage, Symetri can provide training please see here (training link) or alternatively, you can contact the file originator and ask them to make the changes for you. Autodesk Inventor and Fusion 360 are AnyCAD capable meaning you can reference in your AnyCAD data, please contact us for more information on this workflow.

You have access to InventorCAM and can start to generate the required machining strategies needed to manufacture your part. However, Fusion360 CAM has more functionality than InventorCAM and is updated regularly with further UpToDate machining strategies. Not only that, but InventorCAM models will also transfer into Fusion360CAM without translation errors, which in turn offers more flexibility within the workplace as Fusion360 can be accessed on any machine with a valid sign-in.

With Autodesk Fusion 360 Team, you and your entire team can work together efficiently. A team is a collection of people creating and accessing design data for a project. This design data could be Fusion 360 files, other CAD formats, PDF files, Excel files images and other files types. Anyone with an Autodesk account and access to Fusion Team can create one team and be a member of multiple teams. Users can create share links that are sent to collaborators for viewing design data.

You need to create a team. If you have access to a team already you will be given access to projects by the administrator and roles within that Team.

Single user storage you don’t need a full admin process so you just store your files into the single-user storage and share using likes to the Autodesk Viewer Online.

Cloud credits are the unit of measurement required to perform certain tasks, such as creating a rendering, running a simulation, or setting up a generative study in a cloud environment using Autodesk cloud services. Cloud credits expire one year after the date of purchase or when the contract expires, whichever comes first.

Extensions are a grouping of capabilities that can be added to Fusion 360 to provide additional functionality and subsequent benefits to users. They can be enabled in-product using Autodesk Cloud Credits/Tokens or through Autodesk direct sales and channel partners

You can perform various types of simulation within Fusion 360 to simulate your products digitally, reducing the cost of prototyping by using fully validated solvers.

These include cloud simulation, static stress, thermal stress, non-linear stress and event simulation
