What is Autodesk Fusion?
Autodesk Fusion is an all-in-one product development platform that brings CAD, CAM, PCB design, and cloud collaboration together in a single workflow. It is widely used by hardware startups, product designers, and manufacturing teams to move from concept to production faster, with fewer tools and less friction.
Key Autodesk Fusion Capabilities
Flexible 3D CAD
Design and engineer products using a comprehensive set of modelling tools. Rapidly explore design iterations with intuitive, cloud-based CAD that scales as your product matures.
Integrated CAD/CAM
Create high-quality CNC machined parts and additive manufacturing builds. Fusion supports FFF and PBF workflows, including metal 3D printing, all within the same environment.
Unified PCB Design
Design electronics directly alongside your mechanical components. Use built-in schematic design, PCB layout, and routing tools to streamline hardware development and reduce rework.
Collaboration Made Easy
Work together in real time with integrated cloud collaboration. Manage product data centrally, track changes, and keep your entire team aligned from early prototype to production.
