Makersite and Autodesk’s partnership enables product designers and engineers to innovate sustainable products faster by putting deep-tier supply chain and sustainability data directly into their hands, inside CAD tools they’re using.
Makersite’s sustainability and cost data is available to Autodesk Inventor users, enabling engineers to analyze their products’ design, sustainability, and compliance factors during the design phase. Makersite’s platform is also available for Autodesk Fusion users through the Makersite add-on.
Below are details on how the partnership will impact Inventor and Fusion users.
Makersite and Inventor Add-on
Makersite’s solution provides artificial intelligence-enhanced digital twin models of products and their supply chains, sourcing data from more than 140 material, process, and supplier databases.
Makersite's partnership with Autodesk allows Makersite to provide sustainability and cost data in Inventor. The add-on allows engineers to analyze their product during the design phase and run various scenario analyses to ensure their design meets business needs.
Setting the Partnership Apart
Makersite builds a supply chain model behind every product by bringing in intelligence from other organization systems from product lifecycle management and enterprise resource planning increasing accuracy of the calculated data provided to engineers.
Makersite says it believes the only way to improve existing products and to develop more sustainable new products is to leverage the data available across various systems in use, and then providing this intelligence to different stakeholders in their native environments.
