The Generative Design and Make Workshops allow you to experience Generative Design and explore business cases, working side-by-side with a technical expert, to develop concepts relative to your design and manufacturing requirements, in an interpersonal environment just for your company.
Allows beginners to understand how Generative Design works, using case studies and sample designs, to convey the benefits and potential of the technology.
Use Fusion 360 to explore the power of Generative Design
Use specific load cases and constraints to explore potential Generative outcomes
Witness the Design and Manufacturing innovation Autodesk are exploring.
Lean on the experience of seasoned professionals in Generative Design, to explore how to apply Generative Design to your projects.
Allows you to apply Generative Design to your own projects - regardless of your experience level - to enhance your own design and manufacturing workflows, with the opportunity to additively manufacture a prototype.
Explore solutions relative to your Design and Manufacturing problems.
Explore how Generative Design can diversify your outcomes based on different methods of manufacturing.

Utilise the manufacturing facilities in Birmingham to manufacture a prototype of your Generative Design.
Skilled users in Generative Design focus on the manufacturing process alongside Generative Design, utilizing Fusion 360’s CAM functionality, to create a functionable, manufacturable design.
Attend either Additive Manufacturing Workshops, or Subtractive Manufacturing Workshops, to focus on your manufacturing needs.
Use Advanced CAD, CAM, Simulation and other tools within Fusion 360 to create a truly unique, innovate and functional design.
Utilise the vast array of CNC machinery and additive facilities to produce high quality, manufacturable parts.
Lean on the experience of seasoned professionals in Generative Design, Subtractive and Additive Manufacturing.
A: Attendees must have an interest in Generative Design and Manufacturing. These workshops are NOT training courses, they are a more holistic method of learning and experiencing Generative Design.
Attendees should be aware of their company’s design problems and use CNC machinery and/or Additive Manufacturing to manufacture designs. Workshops should be attended by a broad mix of attendees, who represent a broad knowledge of the company’s design and manufacturing processes.
A: Yes. The workshops have all become virtual for the time being. These workshops are broken up into separate sessions, to ensure each workshop isn’t too long per session! Any printed prototype produced at our tech centre can be mailed to you, these will be disinfected first to ensure the maximum level of safety.
A: No. The only way to ensure the success of their time here is to dedicate themselves to it.
A: We don’t charge for the workshops, no. You only require a commercial license of Fusion 360 (or access through an entitlement) and enough cloud credits to generate outcomes.
A: If Generative Design excites you, these workshops are a unique opportunity to get hands on with a Generative Design expert, who can provide a unique insight and vast experience into teaching the fundamentals of Generative Design. Fusion has online tutorials, example parts and instructional videos as to how Generative Design is applied. If you think these applications could be used in your manufacturing workflows, contact us about the Introductory Workshops.
A: Attendees should be proficient in CAD (Autodesk or non-Autodesk products). No coding or generative design experience is required.
A: No. One of the benefits of the program is learning alongside your peers, with respect to your design and manufacturing projects, in an interpersonal workshop exclusively for your company. Workshops can be run for a maximum number of 10 attendees per workshop.
A: Absolutely. Whether it’s case studies and business cases on the Introductory Workshops, to your own designs on the Focused Workshops and Manufacturability Workshops. Each workshop will allow you to understand Generative Design workflows, apply them directly to designs and realise how each one can be manufactured with respect to your own manufacturing requirements and needs.
A: Yes. If you are planning on bringing sensitive IP onto the workshop, please inform us in advance. If attending in person, please bear in mind, the Technology Centres are open environments, there is no guarantee that we can safeguard any sensitive IP without any prior notice, which if we receive, we can protect sensitive IP.
A: Lunch is provided; Breakfast is not. Coffee/Tea are also provided.
