Develop fabrication-level detail with Autodesk Fabrication 

Autodesk Fabrication products provide a shared set of tools for optimizing CAD and BIM data to create detailed manufacturing content, run effective cost estimates and analysis, and design LOD 400 MEP parts, components, and systems.

Use a common library of component, material, and part data in ESTmep, CADmep, and CAMduct to quickly generate accurate, detailed, and constructible fabrication designs.

Use reports to generate tabular schedules and summaries of project details, including specification, material, and cost data, to document all aspects of a design to manufacturing workflow.

Extend design intent models from Revit and AutoCAD software into Fabrication ESTmep for more accurate, competitive bids.

Select from thousands of manufacturers’ items and pattern templates, including 54 imperial ranges, with real-world pricing and cost data for accurate estimating and analysis. Built-in Harrison codes and pricing.

Single-command database export and import, with optional insulation specifications and sections.

Perform value engineering on services more efficiently, and produce several cost/benefit options for your clients.

Record all Adds and Omits on a job to support traceability and promote accountability for changes. Analyze this data to make comparisons against the original estimate.

Get accurate and clear information about model items, like ducts and pipes, and export data to inform effective cost analysis and estimating.

Create fabrication-ready models of piping, plumbing, and ductwork systems.

Draw with real components and connections from thousands of manufacturer content items and pattern templates.

Easily import data from Revit and AutoCAD to lengthen the lifecycle of design models and help reduce model redundancy.

Create detailed fabrication shop spool sheets and bills of materials (BOM).

Identify and rectify service issues, such as mismatched connectors, duplicates, and clashes, before fabrication.

Quickly and easily obtain accurate information about model items and export data for better decision making.

Use an expansive specification-driven database of parametric components for detailing sheet metal.

Set nesting parameters for different materials, such as insulation, ductboard, and sheet metal, to help avoid nesting the job multiple times.

Add data-rich bar codes and QR codes to labels and worksheets.

An easy-to-use graphical user interface (GUI) allows both novice and experienced software users to enter job data and edits.

Estimate jobs based on a variety of project factors to better understand the bottom line.

With post processors built in to support a variety of machine types, CAMduct helps control your production line of any size.
