From Design to Manufacturing in Weeks

As an event organizer, you know how hard it is to design and create a custom product for your attendees in a short amount of time. Autodesk University (AU) wanted to launch its own custom Smart Badge for AU 2022 attendees but had only weeks to do so. To meet this tight timeline, they decided to use Autodesk Fusion 360 software, which allowed them to quickly and easily design their Smart Badge, and then 3D print it in-house.

In this webinar, Autodesk University Product Manager, Michelle Tallerico, and Autodesk Product Designer, Zachary Chappell, will walk you through the entire process – from concept to design to production. You’ll learn how they used Fusion 360 to design their Smart Badge in a matter of days, and how they quickly produced it using 3D printing technology. You’ll also see how they used Fusion 360 to make changes on the fly, and how they achieved their desired outcome.

In addition, you’ll learn about the many benefits of using Fusion 360 to design and manufacture custom products. You’ll get insight into the process from start to finish, and you’ll see the results of Autodesk’s work firsthand. You’ll gain practical tips that you can apply to your own projects, and you’ll get a better understanding of how Fusion 360 can streamline product development.

Fusion 360: Design and Manufacture in Weeks

Autodesk Fusion 360 is a cloud-based 3D CAD/CAM/CAE tool for product development. It combines industrial and mechanical design, simulation, collaboration, and machining in a single package. With Fusion 360, Autodesk University was able to quickly design and produce its Smart Badge in a matter of weeks.

Fusion 360 has powerful 3D modeling, surface modeling, and manufacturing tools. Its intuitive user interface and integrated workflow make it easy for users to quickly design, analyze, and manufacture products. Additionally, Fusion 360 allows users to collaborate on designs in real time, making it ideal for teams working together on complex projects.

Fusion 360 also offers powerful simulation capabilities that allow users to test designs in a virtual environment before they are produced. This helps ensure that products meet requirements and perform as expected. Finally, Fusion 360 integrates with other Autodesk products, such as Inventor and Revit, allowing users to bring their designs to life.

Conclusion

Autodesk University was able to design and manufacture its Smart Badge in a matter of weeks with the help of Fusion 360. This powerful software allowed them to quickly design, analyze, simulate, and manufacture their product. It also allowed them to collaborate on designs in real-time, and integrate with other Autodesk products.

If you’re looking for a way to speed up your product development process, Fusion 360 is a great choice. It has powerful tools for design, analysis, simulation, and manufacturing, and its intuitive workflow makes it easy to use.
