Fusion is free for eligible educators and students. Available on Mac, PC, and Chromebook.
Centralize and manage students' assignments and projects. Students can share a link to their design, and you can view it, add markup, slice the model, and comment directly in your browser, on any device.
Fusion's collaboration features make easier for students to work on the same project – when a new version of a dataset is uploaded, it is immediately available to everyone collaborating on the project.
Get students to produce high-quality CNC machined parts, and additively manufacture builds with a wide range of integrated CNC and 3D printers ready to simulate, test and prototype designs.
Ensure that students are making adequate progress and submitting original work with file version history.
Take models from other CAD programs, even in the original format, and use them directly in Autodesk Fusion to collaborate with your students.
All data files are securely encrypted in the cloud, meaning project files follow the student. For low-connectivity settings, offline mode kicks in when internet goes out.
Fusion enables you to explore many iterations quickly with easy-to-use CAD software.
Produce high-quality CNC machined parts, and additively manufacture builds using FFF or PBF for metal 3D printing.
