Autodesk has announced the creation of a comprehensive tool kit for 3D manufacturing professionals, called Netfabb 2017. It will enable users to access all the software they could need in order to reduce costs, increase efficiency, and improve parts performance on an industrial scale. Design enhancement, manufacturing preparation, and the building of simulation tools are made possible via one common installer and common file formats.
Autodesk has been working towards broadening its additive manufacturing offerings since it acquired Netfabb in 2017, and it has added several new capabilities, including enhanced simulation, optimization, and advanced toolpath capabilities.
