Autodesk to Bring CAM to the Cloud

Autodesk announced its new cloud-based Autodesk CAM 360 solution. According to the company, it allows users to take advantage of collaboration tools and shared data storage, and provides users with improved ease-of-use and flexibility.

CAM 360 is an integrated cloud-based solution that allows users to take advantage of Autodesk’s next generation Digital Prototyping platform, including the modeling tools found in Fusion 360.

It is built upon Autodesk’s HSM technology, which the company says improves efficiency and effectiveness for the entire supply chain. Companies gain the flexibility to proactively address any manufacturing problems or irregularities that might occur during the design to manufacture process.

“Two years ago, we launched PLM 360, creating a new paradigm for product lifecycle management,” said Robert “Buzz” Kross, senior vice president at Autodesk. “In September 2012, we broke down the barriers to testing and analysis with Sim 360. Last year, we ushered in a new era of cloud-based design with Fusion 360. And now, Autodesk delivers the final piece of the solution “manufacturing “with CAM 360.”
