Manufacturing Extension
Unlock advanced manufacturing capabilities for 3- to 5-axis CNC machining, nesting and fabrication, and metal-based additive manufacturing.
Start a trial or purchase access to the Fusion Manufacturing Extension using the Purchase Manager in Fusion. Learn more about the Fusion Manufacturing Extension on the Autodesk website.
Note: The availability to purchase this extension in the Purchase Manager, and the access options available for this extension, depend on the type of Fusion access you have. The Purchase Manager shows the price for monthly and yearly options in your local currency. For daily access, the Purchase Manager displays the number of Flex tokens required. Check the Flex Rate Sheet to see the equivalent cost in your local currency.
What's included
 |
Automated whole-part machining Simplify the CAM programming of complex, feature-rich parts with a range of intelligent toolpaths that can improve consistency. |
 |
4-axis and 5-axis simultaneous machining Make better use of multi-axis machinery with additional toolpaths, tool-axis controls, and automatic collision avoidance options.
|
 |
Toolpath modifications Make edits to a toolpath without wasteful recalculation. |
 |
Part inspection and setup Use inspection strategies and spindle-mounted probes to automate setup and measure components throughout the machining process. |
 |
Additive manufacturing Create setups for additive machines, access support structures, and output builds to machine-specific files. Simulate to predict print issues and generate multi-axis additive toolpaths for directed energy deposition (DED). |
 |
Nesting and fabrication Create efficient multi-sheet layouts for both sheet metal and non-sheet metal parts, enabling precise arrangement and preparation for cutting on CNC machines. |
 |
PMI authoring Add product manufacturing information (PMI) to your designs to communicate design intent. Use the PMI in downstream CAM workflows, including automated hole machining and inspection, so teams can apply it directly from the model without re-entering manufacturing requirements. |
Note: The features previously offered by the Machining Extension, Additive Build Extension, and Nesting & Fabrication Extension are now available as part of the Fusion Manufacturing Extension.
