Manufacturing Informed Design API on Forge

Today, building design decisions are not informed by what can be made. Construction processes are iterative, manual, slow, and reactive, with high risk and uncertainty. Data and tools are disconnected and don’t allow processes to work at scale. In this session I'll go over our Manufacturing Informed Design project and how it brings together our portfolio to inform the design process as early as possible and how the Forge API we are developing for this will enable our customers and partners to extend our solution. The Manufacturing Informed Design API will be a simple way for customers to publish product templates from Inventor into Construction Cloud or Fusion Team, discover those Product Templates via the API or Revit and customize and insert variants from a simple API. I will also cover how we are extending the Forge Viewer for simple, low/no code configuration workflows.

Factory Design Suite: The Power is in the Workflow
There is so much different software installed in Factory Design Suite that it can be hard for a user to know where to start. This class will examine the entire workflow of Factory Design Suite and show you the use of different software that is installed on your machine. You will learn how to use the Autodesk 360 cloud-computing platform to quickly get the 2D layout data from the sales engineer at a client site and then provide him with a completed 3D layout with Factory Design Suite (which is in sync with the 2D layout). We will discuss in detail how Revit software interoperability enables the factory buildings to be used in Inventor software for flawless completion of factory layouts from concept to completion.

Using SIMSOLID with Autodesk Fusion 360
SIMSOLID™ is next generation, high capacity, structural FEA. It uses new computational methods which allow the solution of assemblies with hundreds to thousands of parts directly on a standard desktop computer. SIMSOLID completely eliminates geometry simplification and meshing, the two most time consuming, expertise extensive and error prone tasks done in traditional FEA.SIMSOLID is the perfect complement to existing CAD embedded simulation. It extends the analysis range and provides feedback in seconds to minutes.

This class will provide an introduction to SIMSOLID working with Autodesk Fusion 360. It will give an in-depth overview of SIMSOLID's unique meshless approach and will provide numerous industry examples including large assemblies and lattice based designs.

The attendee will learn new techniques for performing preliminary design analysis on rapidly evolving designs.

Automate Inventor by Engineering with Generative Design
Generative design is changing the way we design, engineer, and manufacture the products of tomorrow. By capitalizing on cloud technology, hundreds or thousands of higher-performing design options can be generated based on objectives, enabling users to make tradeoffs for different materials, performance, and production options. The benefits of generative design are also not restricted to just the world of additive manufacturing, but can also be capitalized on with subtractive manufacturing, and even as design inspiration for traditional techniques. What you might not be aware of is that generative design technology is now available to any user of the manufacturing collections from Autodesk. This lets you go seamlessly from your CAD workflows within Inventor software, to generating a design in Fusion 360 software, back to having the generated design in the context of your original assembly with Inventor. Join us to learn how to get started with Generative Design in Fusion 360 alongside Inventor.

The Mechanics of Motion Automation
Mechanical motion is all around. From a simple door hinge to a car cylinder piston, it is easy to forget that even the simplest real-world motions can be complex operations in 3D animation software. This class will explore several methods for automating complex motion animation in 3ds Max 2020. Designers will learn how to wire parameters, then import the assembly into 3ds Max, as well as how to create similar constraints using 3ds Max tools. You will learn strategies for building a hierarchy based on the animation requirements, basic parameter wiring, and setting up links and Inverse Kinematics to mimic specific constraints. The class will step through multiple short lessons that allow you to create the animation of specific moveable parts. Finally, attendees will see what advantages each tool has for different steps in the animation of complex motion.

Multidisciplinary and Performance-Based Design
Do you design things that move? If so, read on. Design cycles get shorter and shorter. To compensate, mechanical engineers and designers must engage with related disciplines earlier in the design process. In many cases, understanding the performance of the design at these early stages is crucial to facilitate such collaboration. The Inventor Team is investigating tools and technologies that will enable mechanical engineers to characterize and understand the performance of a design much earlier in the design cycle; encapsulate such "Performance Models" in such a way that other design disciplines can capitalize on them; use these models to ensure that the mechanical, hydraulic, pneumatic, and even controls-engineering designs meet machine requirements; use the outcome of these "Performance Models" to size both purchased and fabricated components. This roundtable will enable you to influence this exciting technology, and it will help us understand your workflows and needs.
