Inventor CAM Express is no longer in development

Autodesk has been supporting two free plugins for Inventor and SolidWorks called Inventor® CAM Express and HSMXpress respectively. These plugins will no longer be developed for future releases.


Continued support for Inventor CAM Express

If you have already downloaded the plugin, you will have access to it in your Autodesk account under products and services. It will only be compatible with Inventor 2021 or earlier releases. There will not be a version for Inventor 2022 or SOLIDWORKS 2022.

Consider moving to alternate products

Customers who wish to remain current should consider the following paths.

  • HSMXpress (Hobbyist) → Fusion for personal use
  • HSMXpress (Commercial) → Fusion (includes HSMWorks)
  • Inventor CAM Express → Product Design & Manufacturing Collection (includes Inventor Professional, Inventor CAM, and Fusion)
