Connect your data, people and processes with Fusion

Streamline your product development process

Go from design to manufacturing faster with the only all-in-one cloud CAD, CAM, CAE and PCB platform.

Increase innovation through connected data

Improve your team’s operational efficiency and boost agility with a single source of product data across your organisation and connected supply chain.

Eliminate repetitive tasks with automated workflows

Manufacture faster with connected and automated workflows, plus advanced AI capabilities.

Design and manufacturing solutions for everyone

Design and manufacturing team capabilities and workflows

Unified functions

Working in disconnected product development tools can cause errors and delays. Enable seamless teamwork in the same workspace, without the need for multiple tools.

Data management

Storing files locally in different formats can cause version control, collaboration and security issues. Bring your teams onto one secure, cloud workspace for accessible, current and secure data.

Access and control

Managers often struggle to get project updates in a timely manner. Fusion provides up-to-date progress info, controlled access to audit trails of changes, comments and history.

Automated drawings

Streamline design documentation to enable quick and precise 2D drawings from 3D models, enhancing efficiency and accuracy.

Machining capabilities and workflows

Automated machining

Programme complex, feature-rich components with ease using intelligent whole-part strategies like steep & shallow, deburr, hole recognition and rotary.

 

Toolpath modifications

Speed up CAM programming with powerful modification tools that can turn a good toolpath into a great one – all without wasteful recalculation time.

 

Multi-axis simultaneous machining

Achieve superior surface finish with specialised 4- and 5-axis toolpaths. Additional axis controls and collision avoidance ensure safe, smooth machine motion.

Setup probing and inspection

Save time and money with spindle-mounted touch probes for CNC machining. Measure stock material, update work offsets, monitor quality, automate part setup and more.

Electronics engineering capabilities and workflows

Component libraries

Reduce engineering workload, design new components with ease and decrease the need for manual content creation with comprehensive component libraries.

Synchronisation

Reduce errors, enhance efficiency and improve accuracy. Synchronisation between PCB and schematic in an ECAD application maintains design integrity and consistency.

Live DRC and insights for design constraints

Design your printed circuit boards rapidly and efficiently, leveraging real-time constraint violation detection for immediate alerts on component placement and trace routing issues.

Unified design environment

Empower collaboration between electronic and mechanical engineers in a unified design platform. Enhance accuracy and efficiency by eliminating error-prone conversion steps.

Industrial design capabilities and workflows

Configurations

Configurations provide an intelligent way to maximise the utility of parametric designs. Gain the ability to create and manage multiple design variations from a single, unified model.

Collaboration

Remove the silos from your traditional design process and use a modern collaboration environment. Connect your teams and clients, communicate in real time and centralise project activity.

Generative design

Explore multiple manufacturing-ready outcomes that meet your design specifications while reducing weight, improving performance and consolidating parts through generative design.

Parametric modelling

Maximise the utility of parametric designs with configurations. Create and manage multiple design variations from a single, unified model.

Mechanical engineering capabilities and workflows

Versatile 3D design

Engineer products with a comprehensive set of modelling tools, including 3D parametric modelling, mesh, surfacing and automated design capabilities. Ensure your products’ form, fit and function with diverse analysis methods.

Cloud collaboration

Break free from traditional design silos. Embrace a modern collaboration environment to connect teams and clients, communicate in real time and centralise project activity.

Rapid simulation

Discover manufacturing-ready outcomes that meet design specifications, reduce weight, improve performance and consolidate parts through generative design.

Integrated CAD+CAM

Effortlessly adjust dimensions and geometries with a few clicks, saving time and reducing errors. Every change reflects across the entire model for design consistency.
