About

Adams helps engineers to study the dynamics of moving parts, and how loads and forces are distributed throughout mechanical systems. Product manufacturers often struggle to understand true system performance until very late in the design process. Mechanical, electrical, and other subsystems are validated against their specific requirements within the systems engineering process, but full-system testing and validation comes late, leading to rework and design changes that are riskier and more costly than those made early on. As the world's most famous and widely used Multibody Dynamics (MBD) software, Adams improves engineering efficiency and reduces product development costs by enabling early system-level design validation. Engineers can evaluate and manage the complex interactions between disciplines including motion, structures, actuation, and controls to better optimize product designs for performance, safety, and comfort.

About

Autodesk Fusion is a cloud-based product design and manufacturing platform that combines CAD, CAM, CAE, PCB, and data management in one solution. It helps teams connect design, engineering, manufacturing, electronics, and collaboration workflows in a unified workspace. The software supports product development from concept to production with tools for modeling, simulation, machining, PCB design, and drawing automation. Autodesk Fusion also includes built-in PDM and PLM capabilities to reduce version conflicts, improve collaboration, and keep project data secure and up to date. Teams can choose from Fusion, Fusion for Manufacturing, and Fusion for Design depending on their needs for advanced manufacturing, simulation, generative design, and data management. With cloud collaboration, integrated workflows, and AI-powered assistance, Autodesk Fusion helps companies bring products to market faster.
