Explore Factory Design certification and training courses — delivered live by certified instructors.
Factory Design is a digital factory layout and optimization technology published by Autodesk, designed to solve complex manufacturing facility planning challenges by enabling integrated 2D and 3D modeling. It sits within Autodesk’s manufacturing software ecosystem, extending AutoCAD and Inventor with specialized tools for creating accurate, data-rich factory models. The technology integrates Factory Design Utilities, which provides parametric factory assets like conveyors and material handling equipment, and supports bidirectional associativity between AutoCAD and Inventor. It also connects with Autodesk A360 for cloud-based collaboration and asset management, and leverages Material Flow for defining production stations, routings, and product flows to simulate and validate efficient layouts. This technology is for industrial engineers, production planners, and facility designers who require precise, scalable layouts to optimize throughput, minimize installation clashes, and validate equipment placement across the factory lifecycle.
