Implementation of Autodesk Factory Design Utilities for Administrators


Module overview

There are a wide variety of factory layout workflows that are supported by the Autodesk Factory Design Utilities. Some factory design workflows are completed in simple 2D drawings utilizing just AutoCAD.  Some workflows utilize AutoCAD and Inventor to produce 3D Layouts.  More advanced workflows also include large-scale digital mockups developed in Navisworks.  The data management of all these workflows is accomplished by utilizing Vault Professional. In this module, you will learn how to set up your Autodesk software to work with and support the Autodesk Factory Design Utilities.

This module takes approximately 20 minutes to complete. By the end of the module, you should be able to:

  • Identify the installed applications that support Factory Design Utilities and the recommended order of install
  • Review the Factory Design Utilities integration in AutoCAD
  • Review the Factory Design Utilities integration in Inventor
