At MakerCon in San Francisco, Autodesk revealed two exciting initiatives aimed at making Autodesk Fusion 360 even more accessible while driving innovation in the realm of product creation. Fusion 360 stands out as a unified cloud-based platform that combines CAD, CAM, and CAE, designed to cater to modern methods of product design and manufacturing.
First, we're streamlining the pricing structure for Fusion 360. Starting May 30th, all features previously exclusive to Fusion 360 Ultimate will now be available in Fusion 360 at a monthly rate of just $25, with an annual subscription. This means that Fusion 360 users can now access advanced tools like simulation, animations, 3-axis machining, and more—all for a fraction of the cost. It's incredibly straightforward—get all the resources you need to move from concept to production for only $25 per month under an annual plan for commercial purposes.
Fusion 360 remains entirely free for students, educators, schools, hobbyists, and startups. We firmly believe that those who are learning to use the software or striving to launch a business shouldn't face financial barriers when turning their ideas into reality.
As Andrew Anagnost, Senior Vice President of Industry Strategy and Marketing at Autodesk, stated, "The landscape of manufacturing is evolving rapidly, and groundbreaking shifts such as crowd-funding, digital fabrication, and cloud-based engineering tools are reshaping the game. Never before has creating physical products been this open to everyone. We’re ensuring that accessibility extends to 3D CAD/CAM tools by revolutionizing how they’re made available."
Additionally, we announced a new hardware bundling program today. Starting immediately, participating hardware partners will offer a complimentary one-year commercial subscription to Fusion 360 with the purchase of their machines.
This initiative aims to simplify the integration between design tools and fabrication equipment. By providing a seamless connection between design software, post-processors, and machine setup instructions, we aim to set a new standard in the industry. The capability to transition from concept to machined or 3D-printed components has never been more attainable.
Hardware partners involved in this program include brands like Biobots, BoXZY, CNCRouterParts, MYDIYCNC, OMAX, Other Machine, Pocket NC, Printrbot, Type A Machines, and Tormach. For more details on individual vendors, bundle pricing, and availability, check out our partner page where we'll continue to update with new additions. The range spans from consumer 3D printers to high-end CNC machines capable of producing intricate designs, including human prosthetics!
In essence, manufacturing is transforming, machines are advancing, and software is progressing swiftly. All functionalities within Fusion 360 are now consolidated into a single affordable package. When you acquire a machine from our partners, you receive a free year of usage. For startups or educational institutions, it’s free regardless.
Anagnost concluded, "We're deeply committed to reducing entry barriers in product development, and our partners and customers share this enthusiasm. I’m thrilled to empower the next generation of designers and manufacturers through Fusion 360."
For those interested in CAM capabilities, Fusion 360 leverages the same robust CAM kernel found in HSMWorks and Inventor HSMâ„¢, allowing users to generate efficient toolpaths that optimize cutting cycles, minimize wear, and ensure superior part quality.
In summary, whether you're a student, educator, professional, or hobbyist, Autodesk Fusion 360 is paving the way for unprecedented opportunities in product design and manufacturing. Join the movement and explore what’s possible with this powerful tool.
