Shows how different Autodesk manufacturing software could be used together to define and visualise tool paths and probe paths in AR and VR.

Multi axis large scale 3d printing enables new application fields for engineers, architects, designer and scientists. For this the Netfabb and PowerMill High Rate technology combined with Autodesk tools like Nastran, PowerInspection, Inventor and Fusion enables new possibilties in design and manufacturing.

This class will present an overview of Autodesk's composite manufacturing workflow. Class administrators will review multiple pieces of software and how/where they impact the design and fabrication of composite parts. In this class, attendees will learn what it takes to use Autodesk TruPLAN to flatten and drape composite plies in order to validate the manufacturing process for a given part. This class will review how Autodesk TruNEST Composites can be coupled with other systems to optimize valuable inventory and track it throughout the factory. To lay plies into molds, Autodesk TruPLAN and Autodesk TruLASER are then used to create and optimize laser projection data in order to create a rough part that needs trimming. In the next step in this workflow, administrators will show how multiaxis programming and onmachine verification funtions inside of Powermill can be used to trim composite parts to the extreme accuracy thresholds required by spacecraft manufacturers. Lastly, this class will cover how Powerinspect can be used with laser scanners to improve quality issues and ensure that parts being fabricated are going out the door without issue.

Learn how to use high rate additive manufacturing (3D printing) at an industrial scale by exploring the benefits/opportunities of the process. Using a case study, we'll explore four aspects of this: (1) design considerations, (2) manufacturing data preparation, (3) manufacturing keeping in mind geometric fidelity and (4) post processing.

Will walk through the workflows from several Autodesk CAM products (Fusion360 CAM, FeatureCAM, PowerMill), highlighting integration add-ins to Fusion Production. Following a common workflow, a part will be programmed for manufacturing, then exported as work instruction to Fusion Production. Executing these work instruction will then be simulated, demonstrating the possibility of real-time insight into production and collection of data that can be fed back to CAM.

Learn how the Autodesk Advanced Consulting team approach a range of manufacturing challenges put forward by our customers in the aerospace industry.

This class will demonstrate how multiaxis machining can greatly improve your machining efficiency whilst also explaining how a typical PowerMill customer will overcome many of the common problems that customers of these machines are likely to experience.

In this class, attendees will learn how to use TruNEST as an automation tool to be used in conjunction with DMS Routers to fully automate nesting and production of honeycomb composite panels

The Product Management team will share product plans and facilitate an open conversation about the plans.
