Noah Legein reposted thisNoah Legein reposted thisAutodesk just gave AI agents direct access to Fusion. Within less than two weeks, Autodesk released two very different AI capabilities for Fusion. And together, they show where CAD is heading. The first release is potentially the more fundamental one: Autodesk has launched the Fusion Compute MCP in public beta. Instead of simply helping an engineer operate Fusion more efficiently, Autodesk is opening Fusion directly to AI agents. The cloud-hosted MCP exposes thousands of Fusion capabilities through its API. Agents can create and modify parametric models, work with assemblies, generate CAM setups and toolpaths, export files and interact with Fusion projects. And Autodesk is already showing workflows that go far beyond simple prompt-to-CAD demos. In one example, an agent creates an injection-molded enclosure, builds the core and cavity for the mold and then generates CAM operations for machining the mold plates. CAD is increasingly becoming an execution environment for AI agents. But Autodesk is attacking the problem from the other direction as well. The second release targets a workflow almost every mechanical engineer knows too well: manufacturing drawings. The 3D model may be finished, but the documentation work has only started. Drawing standards need to be configured. Units and sheet formats selected. Orthographic, projected and isometric views created and positioned. Dimensions added. Everything checked for consistency. Autodesk Assistant now allows designers to describe much of this setup in natural language. It can support: • Drawing standards • Units & formatting • Sheet selection and layout • Automatic creation of drawing views • Standards-based dimensioning So Autodesk is approaching Engineering AI from two sides at once. On the agent side, MCP gives AI systems machine-readable access to the underlying engineering capabilities. On the user side, Autodesk Assistant removes repetitive interaction with the CAD interface. AI in engineering will not be defined by adding a chatbot to CAD. The larger shift starts when engineers can express intent while agents operate the engineering toolchain underneath. Today, this might mean generating a drawing or modifying a CAD feature. Tomorrow, the workflow could become much more continuous: Engineering intent into parametric CAD, verified, prepared for manufacturing and finally technically documented. I expect technical documentation to become one of the fastest areas of CAD automation, before we see truly end-to-end workflows in which engineering intent is translated into code, code into 3D models and those models into validated manufacturing outputs.

Noah Legein reposted thisNoah Legein reposted thisAdaptive Roughing, Autodesk Fusion’s high-efficiency milling strategy, is designed to maintain consistent tool engagement concurrent to removing material quickly. This program offers more efficient material removal, consistent tool engagement and toolpaths built for high-performance roughing. Check out the full capabilities with us at IMTS in September: https://lnkd.in/eUjM-uPd

Noah Legein reposted thisNoah Legein reposted thisMost shops treat material and machine time as the biggest bottleneck in furniture production. That’s backwards. The real choke points happen earlier: unclear joins, unvalidated tolerances, and guesswork in assembly. Use CAD/CAM to close that loop before you cut a single part. In Autodesk Fusion you can validate fit and joints, generate CNC-ready toolpaths, and inspect tolerances in context so parts assemble reliably the first time. That reduces trial-and-error on the shop floor, shortens iteration cycles, and keeps production schedules predictable. Learn more at the Fusion blog: https://autode.sk/4vKzVHY

Noah Legein reposted thisNoah Legein reposted thisSpend less time coordinating handoffs and more time delivering parts. The Autodesk Fusion July update reduces friction across design, electronics, and manufacturing so teams move faster from concept to production. ⚡️ A refreshed Home experience gets you to projects and recent work quicker. ⚡️ Construction Geometry improvements and a new hub-based Threads Library cut repetitive modeling and standardization work. ⚡️ Import Altium projects directly to Fusion to consolidate ECAD/MCAD handoffs and avoid translation rework. ⚡️ Manufacturing updates add new CAM capabilities so CNC programmers can iterate toolpaths without leaving the model context. If your goals are shorter cycle times, fewer cross-discipline handoffs, and cleaner handoffs to the shop floor, these updates are practical improvements you can apply immediately.

Noah Legein reposted thisNoah Legein reposted thisManufacturing leaders don't just need more production data—they need data they can act on. When production information is disconnected across machines, teams, and processes, it becomes harder to identify bottlenecks, respond to issues quickly, and make confident operational decisions. This is where connected manufacturing operations can make a difference. By bringing production planning, shop floor tracking, and real-time operational data together, teams gain better visibility into what's happening across the factory and can make faster, more informed decisions. If you're looking to improve operational visibility and build a more data-driven manufacturing workflow, this article explores how Autodesk Fusion Operations helps connect people, processes, and production data.

Noah Legein reposted thisNoah Legein reposted thisWhat if your CAD platform could do more than just CAD? If you're using SOLIDWORKS, it may be worth asking whether your current tools are helping—or slowing down—your product development process. Join this webinar on July 29 to explore five reasons why more teams are moving to Autodesk Fusion. You'll see how a unified platform for design, engineering, and manufacturing can help simplify collaboration, reduce tool sprawl, and support faster product development with built-in AI-powered workflows.

Noah Legein liked thisThe third stop on my Asia trip was incredible! The Team and Partners in Seoul, Korea 🇰🇷 impressed me beyond expectations! Thank you to Jong-ho Jung & CJ Oh for hosting me and to the Korea Partner team…💕 Thank you for a wonderful & productive trip! To the Autodesk Partners who shared their insights with us, Gautam Nanduri and I are grateful for your feedback and your time. Until next time…Noah Legein liked thisThis week, the Autodesk Korea team had the privilege of welcoming Rachel Tuller to our Korea office for a series of meaningful engagements with employees and business partners. Despite her busy schedule, Rachel joined the AWN Korea Town Hall meeting along with Elisabeth Zornes, where she inspired and encouraged our employees, helping strengthen their confidence and sense of belonging within Autodesk. The following day, she participated in the Korea Partner Round Table, engaging in open and insightful discussions with CEOs and senior executives from Korea’s leading Autodesk partners. During both the VAD (SCK Corp.) meeting and the Korea Partner Round Table, Rachel took the time to carefully listen to our partners’ perspectives on the current Korean market, and the challenges they are facing. She reinforced Autodesk’s commitment to being a true business partner and it motivated our partners to continue investing in and growing their Autodesk businesses with confidence. All of the partner CEOs and executives who had the opportunity to meet with Rachel this week were genuinely impressed by her authenticity, approachable leadership style, and strong spirit of collaboration. I sincerely hope that Rachel will return to Korea in the near future, creating more opportunities to connect and engage with an even broader group of partners. #Autodesk #Leadership #ChannelPartner #AutodeskKorea
