In this session, we’ll discuss how design for additive manufacture (DFAM) can influence the performance of additively manufactured parts. This session will focus primarily on laser powder-bed fusion, but concepts can be transferable to other additive techniques. We’ll explore lattices, hollow geometries, and thin walls as common features in lightweight designs, including the challenges that these can pose in design, post processing, and actual performance. Autodesk Research is currently undertaking research to characterize how as-built features perform (mechanically) compared to idealized conditions—generic bulk-material values found in literature. This will enable better representation of these features at the design stage to facilitate more accurate simulation and optimization. Attendees will leave more familiar with DFAM, considerations during the design process, and the impacts these have on overall part performance.

Generative design is often seen as an alien parts generator. In this session, we will share how we incorporated this design exploration method into our traditional design process, and how we applied the method on a very typical welded parts assembly of an automatic tools changer on a CNC machine tool. With no specific expectations, as we believed it was already fully optimized, we achieved almost 20% of mass reduction, positively impacting the overall machine precision. And as a side benefit—we got really good-looking parts. You'll learn which selection method we used to identify potential parts for generative design and how we defined the success criteria. We'll cover the whole process, from multiple designs exploration up to production and installation itself. We'll also discuss our generative design rollout plan.

Web 3.0 is here, and industries and organizations need to be prepared to upgrade their existing content to 3D at scale.

Civil 3D software has dominated infrastructure and renewable energy sectors for many years. Industry has both adopted the native functionality but also expanded it with custom applications over the years, which has created cross-interoperability challenges. Currently moving toward digital-twin efficient data flows beyond design and constructions phases is becoming increasingly important. In this class, we will showcase how—with the help of Autodesk Data Exchange—we can break the silos and enable the transition toward digital twins.

Our industry's current reliance on interoperability workflow hacks—such as app-specific import/export plug-ins, file formats with varying support across tools, and limited point-to-point translators—results in inconsistent data-sharing experiences that suck up time and require rework. Autodesk's Data Exchange app moves your disconnected workflows toward more-seamless cloud interoperability between the design tools you use every day, whether they be CAD tools or building information modeling (BIM) and 3D modeling apps (like AutoCAD software, Revit software, Tekla, Rhino, and Inventor software). In this class, you'll learn how you can use Data Exchange to curate, securely share, view, and manage design data across these apps and multiple stakeholders—with specific focus on AutoCAD and Revit interoperability. We'll explore how Data Exchange can simplify BIM/3D model-to-drawing sharing and generation, can move data more selectively and effectively from 2D to 3D, and can open the door to more-streamlined model audits and quantity takeoff (QTO).

The digital twin is a concept resulting from the advance and convergence of many different technologies. This has both complicated and over-simplified industry discourse on the topic. Often lost in the discussion about the tech and the solution vendors is what a digital twin describes (the virtualization of a real-world thing or process), the value proposition (capitalizing on digital technologies to improve how we understand, predict, and manage change to our built world), and how to properly engage with the concept (starting with use cases!). Sean OIcott, VP of product and innovation at Gafcon Digital, will join Casey Mahon, senior manager of customer adoption at Autodesk Tandem, to provide a background on the concept, a summary of current and future design and construction use cases, an evaluation of solution vendors on the market, and a demonstration of an example construction use case—the Smart Jobsite—using Autodesk Tandem software.

With the dramatic changes in the design community, it's time to evaluate where building information modeling (BIM) has brought us and begin to examine the next generation of digital design and delivery. We'll cover how Gannett Fleming is working to attain the goal of developing true digital twins from an operational standpoint. This session will begin by comparing traditional CAD workflows and documentation to prepare a "digital deliver” standard that fits the requirements of a BIM project. Next, we'll evaluate the project platform and how it needs to be structured for the new designer/contractor/owner relationship while optimizing a true digital twin environment. Once we define the platform, we'll learn how to create and manage content standards that meet digital twin requirements. And we'll close by reviewing how the workflow on future projects should change to help us meet this goal. Learn how we took the first steps toward change and help your company get off on the right foot.

Currently, there is a nationwide career and technical educator (CTE) shortage, and the reasons for it are multifaceted and numerous. The shortage of quality CTE teachers contributes to the growing skills gap that affects our food and fiber and manufacturing industries.

In this session, we'll look at a workflow that goes from a drawing to the output of technical documentation for high-volume production using multiple setups and machines. It starts with raw material and the use of parametric modeling and model states to break up the individual operations. From there we can use Inventor Tolerance Analysis to determine stackups and points of high risk during machining. The model is then translated to Autodesk Fusion 360 software for its machining capabilities. It quickly shows the machine library and tooling library capabilities. The Fusion 360 CAM validates cycle times and interference checks. Fusion 360 CAM data is then exported. With Inventor, the part is then made into technical drawings. Tooling and inspection documents are then populated with all the necessary data. Any part updates can be driven parametrically, validated, and updated on demand.
