Shaft Component Generator for Autodesk® Fusion 360™ a proof of concept add-in that extends the functionality of Fusion 360 by enabling users to create multi-diameter shafts. Add-in features the following functions:

• Add, remove and split cylinder, cone or polygon shaft sections.
• Add bores with features to the shaft ends.
• Attach created shaft to the existing assemblies using Placement tool.
• Add shaft section features such as fillet, chamfer, thread, keyway groove, wrench etc.

The video demonstration below shows basic functionality provided by Shaft Component Generator:

Integration of engineering software systems is an important part of the AMC Bridge research program. Steel Structures Drawings Manager is our latest technology demonstration created to establish a bidirectional connection between Autodesk® Advance Steel and Autodesk® Vault.

Fusion 360 wouldn’t be what it is today without our customers. They use it to design and make incredible things, from lightweight motorcycle swingarms to powerful industrial processing equipment. As a cloud-based manufacturing ecosystem, it also wouldn’t grow without our customers, which is why we’re excited to announce three new sets of capabilities—capabilities that we’ve designed and implemented as a direct response to our customers’ needs.

Conducting extensive research into the integration of CAD systems with domain-specific libraries, AMC Bridge continues to deliver high-quality solutions for the industry. Our latest Revit® to Kineo™ technology demonstration of interfacing the main Autodesk® Revit® system with the Siemens Kineo™ software is developed to present a potential solution to path planning problems.

Continually conducting research on connecting various engineering software tools, AMC Bridge created a technology demonstration of direct access to Autodesk A360 from SketchUp within a single environment.

General Motors is now streamlining its design process by using a combination of 3D printing and algorithms. The automotive giant has announced that it is taking advantage of generative design software from Bay Area-based company Autodesk in order to manufacture lightweight parts for its future products. GM plans to incorporate the technology into its development of more efficient models including zero emissions vehicles.
