Fusion: the ultimate in 3D modeling

Fusion is CAD, CAM, CAE and PCB software that unifies design, simulation and manufacturing of industrial and mechanical engineering products in a range of tools that support the entire process, from idea to production, in a single platform. Fusion is the first tool that makes it possible to connect the entire product development process in a single, cloud-based platform. In recent years, the software has become one of the most popular tools used by industrial designers, electrical engineers, machinists, hobbyists and start-ups. Qs Infor is an authorized Autodesk reseller: sales, consultancy, training on Fusion and Autodesk products.

Fusion. The true mechanical revolution

CAD, CAM, CAE in one interactive or, better said, totally proactive environment, given the ease with which design teams, production engineers can share, implement or experiment with Fusion’s Generative Design.

A powerful set of 3D modelling tools, including parametric, free-form, direct and surface modelling, makes for an unrestricted flow of data between conceptual idea, design and production. To get even more technical: Fusion operates in Sub-D polygon modelling, T-Splines modelling, NURBS surface modelling, Bézier curve surface modelling and CSG primitive modelling.

Design data are implemented, resulting in complex surfaces that can be processed and used in the engineering process. In production, Fusion offers a powerful integrated CAM that, from a single platform, makes it possible to operate in multiple modes (2-3-4-5 axis milling, up to 4 axis turning, 3D printing in additive manufacturing).

Modelling that predicts the future

By assembling parts, reducing weight and improving overall product performance Fusion identifies the critical aspects and physical-material characteristics of a component, outlining all its future potential.

Another important feature of Fusion is that it incorporates the translation of CAD data from a variety of sources. It is capable of supporting dozens of different file types, including .OBJ, .DXF, .DWG, .SLDPRT, etc., with the ability to automatically display the data in Fusion’s CAD environment.

With generative design, there is never just one solution; the “part” can thus be profitably analysed under different conditions, simulating alternative materials, various loads and constraints, and performing thermal or mechanical stresses.

Integrated management, an engineering marvel

Fusion carefully operates data management and version control. By automatically creating and managing versions, it is thus possible to return to a previous state at a later date, but also to take over a component already integrated in a complex project, reusing its data again.  The integrated search engine is as fluid as can be imagined to maximise productivity.

Technical departments can implement dedicated libraries, building up a repository of resources and know-how over time that makes it easier to understand project developments, perspectives over time, and possible integrations into the dynamics of production.

What Fusion preserves in terms of historical evolution is also the best support for the training of new technicians, who are thus able to participate actively, right from the start, in the company’s specific engineering dynamics and to satisfactorily manufacture quality products with CNC machines.

Fusion is Autodesk’s software for creating 3D designs in a single platform that integrates CAD, CAM, CAE and PCB.  It is therefore a complete tool for 3D modelling. Here’s what you can do with Fusion:

  • Explore design iterations in a simple way
  • Produce high quality CNC machined parts with integrated CAD/CAM
  • Access unified electronic design
  • Check the performance of designs with 3D simulation tools
  • Explore production-ready results with generative design
  • Collaborate with the team and seamlessly manage data in the cloud

Autodesk Fusion is used by industrial designers, mechanical engineers, electrical engineers, machinists, start-ups.

Autodesk Fusion for personal use is a free, limited version reserved for non-commercial amateur users and suitable start-ups.
The free version of Fusion for professionals, on the other hand, can be used for a maximum of 30 days.

Autodesk Fusion is not the same as AutoCAD. Fusion is an integrated CAD, CAM, CAE and PCB software, while AutoCAD is a CAD software for creating 2D and 3D drawings.

Autodesk reserves free educational access to all products and services for students and lecturers for one year. Access may be renewed if users maintain the eligibility requirements.

Fusion for personal use includes cloud-based 3D design and modelling tools and a number of limited functionalities. The Fusion subscription, on the other hand, has all 3D design and modelling tools and a complete CAM, CAE and PCB development platform.

See how Fusion works

There are many superlative working features, but one in particular will make you fall in love: the 100% customisation of Fusion. You can, for example, perform very sophisticated rendering control; you can dynamically adjust environments, visual effects, depth of field, ray tracing and display styles, all with the simple drag-and-drop function!
