Inventor to Fusion 360 Enhancements

Learn about copying Inventor models to Fusion 360 for Generative Design, Simulation, and Manufacture.

Work with Fusion 360 Tools

From within Inventor, launch Fusion 360 Generative Design, Simulation and Manufacturing tools. The Fusion 360 ribbon is available in both the Inventor Assembly and Part environments.

When using these tools you have the option starting the Fusion 360 workspace for the command you choose. The Modeling command (formerly the Send to Fusion command) takes you to the Fusion 360 Design workspace. The new commands provide workflows into additional Fusion 360 workspaces, including Generative Design, Simulation, and Manufacturing. You select the Fusion 360 tool you want to use and the components you want to send to Fusion 360. The Inventor components are derived into a single IPT, copied to Fusion Team, and opened in Fusion 360 in the appropriate workspace.
