Autodesk Digital Prototyping – Manufacturing & Production

Autodesk Digital Prototyping help drive profitability into customers' manufacturing processes. They extend Digital Prototyping into the factory by enabling companies to analyze the manufacturability of the products they design, deliver critical product documentation, and simulate factory operations. Manufacturers can visualize complete manufacturing facilities, industrial machinery, factory floor models, and production lines in a single environment. The software supports complete assembly visualization and optimization, and enables you to combine CAD data from various design systems regardless of file format or size.

Autodesk is a world-leading supplier of engineering software, providing companies with tools to experience their ideas before they are real. By putting powerful Digital Prototyping technology within the reach of mainstream manufacturers, Autodesk is changing the way manufacturers think about their design processes and is helping them create more productive workflows. The Autodesk approach to Digital Prototyping is unique in that it is scalable, attainable, and cost-effective, which allows a broader group of manufacturers to realize the benefits with minimal disruption to existing workflows, and provides the most straightforward path to creating and maintaining a single digital model in a multidisciplinary engineering environment.

The Autodesk solution for Digital Prototyping enables you to:

• Visualize complete manufacturing and production facilities, industrial machinery, and factory floor models in a single environment.
• Drop digital prototypes of equipment onto your layout, detect interferences, and explore options to find the optimal factory layout.
• Include a person in your 3D model to check ergonomics.
• Show nontechnical stakeholders exactly what the factory floor will look like with interactive 3D visualizations.
• Collaborate and implement plans sooner to help start manufacturing on schedule and capitalize on market opportunities.
• Reduce change orders, minimize delays and avoid cost overruns associated with layout changes.
• Combine CAD data from various design systems regardless of file format or size.
• Bring CAD and CAM together for a truly integrated design-to-manufacturing solution.
• Streamline manufacturing and quality processes with cloud based product lifecycle management.
