Rendering of a CAM toolpath on a sprocket

Extend Inventor with integrated capabilities for manufacturing

Streamline the transition from design to manufacturing with integrated tools for toolpath strategies and factory layouts

Why manufacturing engineers use the collection

Increase manufacturing throughput

Quickly convert your best practices into templates that can be shared across your team, helping you make better use of your people, tooling, and machines.

Improve quality and reliability

Automate common CAM processes and workflows to remove manual non-value-add tasks that are expensive and poorly controlled.

Shorten project delivery times

Seamlessly connect your CAM programming and shop-floor teams to the data they need to make business-critical decisions faster.
