Create complete product designs

• Quickly create complete product models - From a single part to massive assemblies, intuitively model and document your products with professional-grade 3D parametric design capabilities and 2D drafting toolsets.
• Highly efficient production lines start here - Conceptualize production line layouts using familiar 2D workflows that can be automatically converted into detailed 3D models.
• Communicate your idea with stunning visualizations - Clearly convey your design with high-fidelity imagery and animations generated directly from your 3D model for use in design reviews, documentation, and sales and marketing collateral.
• Streamline the move to manufacturing - Create efficient processes that help you seamlessly transition from design to manufacturing with integrated tools for generating multi-axis toolpaths and sheet metal nests.

Explore every design opportunity

• Consider all design alternatives - Generative design capabilities let you create multiple, production-ready design options, and review tradeoffs in materials, performance, cost, and manufacturing processes.
• Push the boundaries for better products - Extend product capabilities, improve efficiency, and prevent failures with advanced performance simulation built on the Autodesk Nastran solver.
• Evaluate factory projects before you build - Remove bottlenecks in the process with discrete-event simulation capabilities, and in the installation using clash detection between the as-is state and proposed production line designs.
• Evaluate the cost of dimensional variation - Balance mechanical fit and performance with the cost of tighter tolerances based on an analysis of the cumulative dimensional variation between mating geometry.

Connect your work and your people

• Connect your 2D and 3D design tasks - Combine the capabilities of 2D and 3D CAD to integrate electromechanical models, conceptualize designs, and speed up the creation of drawings and documentation.
• Manage all that data in less time - Control your intellectual property in a single location, making it easy to collaborate with your colleagues. Securely share data externally to simplify and speed-up review cycles.
• Speak the many dialects of CAD and BIM - Reference models created in other CAD or BIM applications that update anytime the original files are changed. Prepare BIM objects of your product models for delivery to your clients.
• Collaborate effectively on large scale design projects - Aggregate design data from multiple sources to perform reviews of large scale designs. Check for clashes, simulate installation, and centralize communication between stakeholders.

Automate routine tasks

• Custom configuration to customer specifications - Create a custom product configurator using a powerful, simple-to-use automation engine that captures engineering knowledge, preserving your time for value-added projects.
• Make compliance automatic for the team - Automate templates for parts, assemblies, and drawings to reduce errors, save time, and make it easy to follow company standards.
• Accelerate design validation and manufacturing - Speed up downstream processes by automating routine tasks involved in simulation setup in Inventor Nastran and toolpath strategies in Inventor CAM.
• Automate true-shape nesting - Generate multiple sheet nests to reduce raw material waste, and produce comparison reports to review overall efficiency, total cost, and machining time.

• Inventor Professional - Professional-grade tools for 3D mechanical design, simulation, and documentation.
• AutoCAD - 2D and 3D CAD software with industry-specific toolsets.
• Fusion 360 - Cloud-based CAD/CAM/CAE software for product design and manufacturing.
• Inventor Tolerance Analysis - Tolerance stackup analysis software for evaluating the impact of dimensional variation.
• Inventor Nesting - True shape nesting software for Inventor to optimize yield from raw material.
• Inventor CAM - Integrated 2.5- to 5-axis CAD/CAM programming solution for Inventor.
• Factory Design Utilities - Factory design software to plan, design, and install an efficient production layout.

• Vault - Product data management software to manage design files and track revisions.
• Inventor Nastran - CAD-embedded software for non-linear stress, thermal, vibration, and fatigue simulation.
• Navisworks Manage - Large-scale design review software with clash detection and scheduling.
• 3ds Max - 3D rendering and animation software for design visualization.
• ReCap Pro - Reality capture and 3D scanning software and services.
• HSMWorks - Integrated 2.5- to 5-axis CAD/CAM programming solution for SOLIDWORKS.
  
• Autodesk Rendering - Fast, high-resolution renderings in the cloud.
  
• Autodesk Drive - CAD-aware cloud storage for individuals and small teams.
