Better Together: Fusion 360 & Our Partners
Fusion 360's ever-evolving ecosystem of software partners redefines connected manufacturing.
Autodesk integrates product development processes end-to-end and partners with software leaders in design, manufacturing, smart products, and smart factories with the goal of enabling customers to automate time-consuming processes and open up previously siloed workflows to enable better collaboration.
Autodesk Fusion 360 Software Partners
Software partners integrate across D&M products in PDMC and Fusion 360. Our partners help our customers differentiate with data, expand our capabilities and automate time-consuming processes.
DESIGN SOFTWARE
Ansys
Since 2019, Autodesk and Ansys have partnered to bring the power of simulation to product designers within Fusion 360 with the Autodesk Fusion 360 Signal Integrity Extension. Our strategic alliance connects the art of design with the science of analysis to create greater depth and breadth in an industry that needs to be able to design and make things differently.
DESIGN SOFTWARE
aPriori
Our partnership with aPriori brings their industry-leading product cost estimates to Fusion 360 Generative Design. Designers and engineers can request Manufacturing Cost estimates when initiating studies, alongside all of the performance and manufacturability insights that Generative Design offers, to inform design tradeoffs.
SUSTAINABILITY SOFTWARE
Makersite
Makersite powers sustainable product and supply chain decisions at scale. The Makersite Fusion 360 add-in works by converting your CAD model into a Bill of Materials (BOM). Makersite’s AI platform calculates climate change impacts and cost estimates. It also provides suggestions on material alternatives to reduce these impacts.
MANUFACTURING SOFTWARE
ModuleWorks
Our partnership gives Autodesk access to integrate the best toolpath technologies from Powermill, FeatureCAM and the advanced toolpath calculation algorithms developed by ModuleWorks directly into Fusion 360, making it easier to to generate high-performance, collision-free toolpaths for efficient multi-axis milling and turning.
MANUFACTURING SOFTWARE
Xometry
The Xometry Instant Quote App enables users to instantly get DFM feedback, price estimates and lead time estimates without leaving Fusion 360, allowing design engineers to see the direct impact of design changes on their part’s cost and manufacturability. Designers can leverage manufacturing on-demand and order parts directly from Xometry's Supplier Network.
