ENGINEERING ESSENTIALS
Seamless collaboration workflows (US Site) keep your team, customers and suppliers connected, regardless of whether they’re across the hall or across the world.
MECHANICAL DESIGN
Parametric design (US Site) and Direct modelling (US Site) allow for swift, efficient design changes, with automatic design updates that accommodate manufacturing needs.
ASSOCIATIVE MODELLING
Automate the preparation of 2D and 3D models (US Site) to enable effective manufacturing to start sooner, with powerful workflows to create jigs, fixtures and more.
DESIGN AUTOMATION
Automate the creation of 2D drawings and manufacturing setup sheets (US Site), and then share them securely with your team to keep everyone informed and connected.
MANUFACTURING ESSENTIALS
Fusion unifies common CAD/CAM workflows (US Site) reducing the time and effort needed to go from concept to production and removing the pain of design changes.
CNC MACHINING
Simplify the CAM programming (US Site) of parts with 2-, 3- (US Site), and 4- and 5-axis (US Site) strategies that generate high-quality NC code for mills, lathes and turn-mill machines.
SHEET-BASED FABRICATION
Convert 3D assemblies into efficient 2D nested solutions (US Site), then produce high-quality NC code for use with CNC routers, laser-, water- and plasma-cutting machines.
ADDITIVE MANUFACTURING
Quickly prepare 3D models for 3D printing (US Site) in a wide range of materials (US Site) with intuitive and intelligent automated workflows to simulate and optimise builds.

Autodesk Fusion for Manufacturing is an integrated solution for product development and manufacturing organisations. It includes the core CAD/CAM capabilities contained in Fusion plus the advanced CAM programming tools contained in the Fusion Manufacturing Extension but at a discounted subscription cost.
Fusion for Manufacturing is built for organisations that want to increase innovation, reduce development costs and start manufacturing sooner. These organisations typically consist of manufacturing engineers, machinists and programmers tasked with the responsibility for manufacturing a product. This often requires the production of a toolpath/machine programming, and/or nesting of designs for fabrication, and/or planning/programming for 3D printing.
A subscription to the Fusion for Manufacturing offering includes Autodesk Fusion AND the Autodesk Fusion Manufacturing Extension but at a discounted price. The offering provides our most comprehensive CAD/CAM toolkit packed with automated workflows to support a wide range of manufacturing processes, including CNC machining (milling and turning), sheet-based fabrication and 3D printing in a range of materials.
No. Currently, there is no trial for the Fusion for Manufacturing offering.
Autodesk does provide a free 30-day trial of Fusion and a separate 14-day trial of the Fusion Manufacturing Extension. It is recommended that customers activate the extension trial during the final two weeks of their 30-day Fusion trial.
Yes. The Fusion for Manufacturing offering includes access to both Autodesk Fusion and the Fusion Manufacturing Extension.
Customers can choose to subscribe to the Fusion for Manufacturing offering for 1 or 3 years. The longer 3-year term allows customers to lock in the price and get the greatest return on investment.
A subscription to Fusion for Manufacturing provides access to our best-value manufacturing capabilities. Check the pricing details at the top of this page for the most up-to-date pricing and promotions and visit your local website for prices in your local currency.
Yes. Fusion for Manufacturing is our best-value and most capable manufacturing software. It includes powerful CAD/CAM tools and automated workflows specifically developed to meet the needs of manufacturing engineers working with CNC machinery for milling, turning, sheet-based fabrication and additive manufacturing (3D printing).
Yes. Autodesk recently changed the name of Fusion 360 to Fusion. As well as changing the name of Fusion, Autodesk made some changes to pricing & packaging. Learn more about these changes here (US Site).
