Explore the top highlights in the July 2026 Fusion update, including on-demand configurations, CAM enhancements, component reuse, and Altium import. The July 2026 Autodesk Fusion update is focused on a simple goal: helping product development teams spend less time managing complexity and more time delivering products. This release introduces new capabilities across design, manufacturing, electronics,…
What's New
Learn about the new Fusion Data MCP Server that connects AI tools to Fusion project data so teams can manage permissions, folders, and project structure through natural language. Managing a Fusion project involves more than designing. There is access control to maintain, folder structures to organize, team members to onboard, and project hierarchies to keep…

Are you curious about Fusion 360 vs. SolidWorks? This migration guide will be the key to your success.
Getting Started
Build a Fusion add-in without coding using AI agents. Learn how the Fusion MCP connects tools like Claude and Cursor to automate workflows, test scripts, and accelerate add-in development. The Claude Desktop connector for Fusion arrived alongside something just as monumentus official MCP’s for Fusion. Any tool that supports the Model Context Protocol can now…
Fusion
Learn how to use the Autodesk Fusion Claude Desktop Connector to automate repetitive design tasks, streamline workflows, and extract insights, without relying on unreliable AI-generated geometry. A few weeks ago, Autodesk Fusion support was added to Claude Desktop Connector as part of Anthropic’s Claude for Creative Work launch. Most of the attention since then has…

This article explores how consumer products teams apply design for manufacturability (DFM) to protect tooling investments and avoid late-stage rework. It examines the real costs of discovering manufacturability issues after design freeze and explains how Autodesk Fusion helps engineers incorporate DFM thinking from the earliest stages of development. For many designers, a nightmare scenario involves…
Manufacturing
Learn how automotive part manufacturing teams design custom parts for fit, performance, and manufacturability using integrated workflows with Autodesk Fusion. Automotive part manufacturing, especially in the aftermarket, demands far more than simply modeling a part in 3D. Manufacturers must design components that fit precisely, perform reliably under real‑world conditions, and move efficiently from design to…
Manufacturing
Learn how to run thermal simulations in Autodesk Fusion—from materials and loads to mesh, results, and reports. Thermal analysis is essential for validating design decisions when components will operate under specific temperature conditions. Whether you’re designing cooling fins, evaluating insulation performance, or ensuring materials can withstand operational heat, Autodesk Fusion’s simulation workspace provides the tools…
Product Design & Engineering
AI in CAD helps by automate repetitive work and expand design options. See how Fusion’s AI capabilities turn intent into outcomes. For decades, CAD has been the engine of modern engineering. But beneath the surface, much of the work inside CAD has remained stubbornly manual: repetitive modeling steps, configuration changes, design checks, redraws, and rework.…
Industrial Design
Learn how to avoid common sketch failures in Fusion, from unconstrained sketches and open profiles to unstable parameters all while using best practices for clean, editable, parametric models. Sketching is the foundation of every parametric model in Fusion. When sketches are properly constrained and structured, downstream features update predictably. When they’re not, even small edits can cause failures, flipped dimensions, broken features, or…
Getting Started
Discover how Fusion MCP connects AI tools to Autodesk Fusion, opening new ways to automate, customize, and extend design workflows. People are already using AI tools like Cursor and Claude to think, write, code, and solve problems. Our view is simple: if that is where work is happening, Fusion should be there too. That is…
Fusion
Autodesk Assistant now executes Fusion API scripts in your workflow, helping you automate repetitive tasks just by describing what you want. When we introduced Autodesk Assistant in Fusion, the vision was simple: an AI that doesn’t just answer questions, but actually helps you get work done inside your tools. This release takes a significant step toward that. Autodesk Assistant can…
