Description
Exploring design alternatives is more than just the material used or product produced. It's about the energy and resources consumed to create that product, and finally where that product ends up when it reaches end of life. Exploring not just alternative designs, but also resource and production alternatives, helps to drive better environmental impact. And designing for longevity and, most importantly, reuse of products and materials drive manufacturing toward the net-zero impacts that we need to truly create a sustainable world. Start by exploring how products come to reality and the alternative. And then use tools like Autodesk Fusion 360 to explore manufacturing alternatives and energy consumption that finally lead to creative design for disassembly and reuse.
Key Learnings
- Learn about sustainable design and manufacturing concepts.
- Explore product flexibility for sustainable alternatives (materials, energy, and environmental impact).
- Learn about product manufacturing flexibility.
Speakers
- JHJeff HigginsI joined Autodesk during the acquisition of Moldflow in 2008. And currently work as a Subject Matter Expert for the Named Accounts Team, where my duties include helping major accounts grow simulation and manufacturing businesses with their internal teams. Additionally working with Manufacturing Opportunities with large companies to increase manufacturing efficiency and drive sustainable production. For 12 years prior to joining Autodesk, I was with Moldflow Corporation, and worked as an application engineer to the Automotive Industry. During that time, with a focus on working to build confidence in simulation with Automotive OEM's and Tier level suppliers to implement Moldflow and certify users with Moldflow software. Previously working as a process engineer at Adams Manufacturing. I had the responsible for processing and maintaining manufacturing on a 35-press manufacturing facility.
