This is a great addition, and is available from the web shell or directly within Fusion 360.Ī360 has had a large UI overhaul which the company hopes will make the space data-centric, and more usable for teams than in the past. Real-time multi-user design review – Fusion 360 offers a portal that permits team members and invitees to view the model simultaneously, and chatting and driving the model view as desired. Fusion team members can now invite non-team individuals to review the model through the web shell, but not have any access to the actual model. Restricted Invitee Viewing – A360 now offers Read-Write and Read-Only access to data stored on the cloud, which is a critical improvement.

Controls are available to review the results of studies for each file version, without needing anything beyond the web shell. Some of the A360 changes are a wonderful match for Fusion, and the company has wisely capitalized on these with additional integration.įusion Simulation Results – Simulation results will be visible and interactive for invited team members. Centerlines and hole-centers will dynamically update as the model changes as well.Īccessibility with Autodesk 360 Integrationįusion 360 models are stored in the A360 cloud space, which permits team design work and collaboration. Parts list enhancements include balloon alignment and renumbering, the latter of which is distributed back to the Bill of Materials (BOM) as expected. I will say that it would be a significant benefit if the joint-to-contact translation could be counted on by the user to deliver concise, expected, and useful contacts in the simulation model. I suspect this is facilitated by the assembly joints present in the model, but they might be more powerful than that.

The integration includes automatic contact generation. The spaces, for all practical purposes have been integrated which sort of brings us back to where we were some time ago, but with a complete architecture overhaul. The appearance and usability provided will be quite similar (if not identical) to that of the previously retired Sim 360 which Fusion 360 used to include. These will appear on their own Simulation tab, and the simulation model and study results will stay embedded within the single Fusion design file. Integrated SimulationĪs of last Saturday, Fusion 360 will include Linear Static and Modal Analyses. Since we spent the last year paying for access to simulation that never arrived you might feel a bit put-off, but I’m still happy to see its arrival. Autodesk’s September update of Fusion 360 will go live today (), and brings with it a significant upgrade: SimulationĪutodesk had announced the arrival of Simulation at least as far back as November of 2014 when they ran their Ultimate promotion.
