Manufacturing
Design to manufacture Autodesk Fusion makes it easy to program CNC machines. Use simplified controls for high-efficiency roughing, adaptive clearing, and tool orientation. Design for 2D up to 5-axis milling. Simplify probing, turning, mill-turning, and profiling operations with a powerful post engine. |
2D and 2.5D machining Quickly set up jobs and create 2D and 2.5D toolpaths to drive CNC routers, mills, water jet cutters, laser cutters, and more. Integrated CAD simplifies design revisions, reduces programming times and helps avoid mistakes. |
3-axis machining Access a range of powerful 3-axis machining strategies to rapidly create high-quality NC code to rough and finish your 3D parts. Intuitive workflows make it simple to program individual features or entire parts. Some of these capabilities require a subscription to Autodesk Fusion 360 and the Manufacturing Extension. |
Multi-axis positional machining Unleash your shop's multi-axis capabilities with 3+1 and 3+2 (positional) machining. Machine parts with fewer setups, using shorter, more rigid cutting tools, for improved part accuracy and faster cycle times. Some of these capabilities require a subscription to Autodesk Fusion 360 and the Manufacturing Extension. |
4 and 5-axis simultaneous milling Use specialized 4- and 5-axis toolpaths to achieve superior surface finish. Additional tool axis controls and automatic collision avoidance help you achieve safe, smooth and predictable machine motion. Access to this functionality requires a subscription to Autodesk Fusion 360 and the Manufacturing Extension. |
Turning Program 2D turned parts using a suite of dedicated turning strategies. Verify your turning toolpaths with stock simulation to identify errors or collisions with the model, stock, tools, and workholding. |
Turn-mill Combine milling and turning operations together to generate NC code that can help you produce more complex parts using multi-tasking hardware capable of supporting both styles of machining. |
Setup probing and part inspection Use spindle mounted touch probes to monitor and control your CNC machining. Save time and money by measuring stock material, updating work offsets, monitoring quality, automating part setup, and more. Some of these capabilities require a subscription to Autodesk Fusion 360 and the Manufacturing Extension. |
Autodesk Fusion Manufacturing Extension Purchase access to the Manufacturing Extension to unlock advanced CAM capabilities in Autodesk Fusion, including 4- and 5-axis simultaneous machining, sheet-based nesting and fabrication, and metals-based additive manufacturing. |
