Large-Scale Visualization

Navisworks software for manufacturing enables interactive visualization and smooth, real-time walk-through and fly-through of factory models, so you can explore even the largest and most complex 3D models. Visualize products, tooling, fixtures, machines, and plant layouts and discover potential issues before a factory is built-or during production-line reconfiguration projects. You can also validate design performance, streamline workflows, and reduce waste.

3D Digital Review

Autodesk Navisworks software for manufacturing provides a complete set of 3D digital review tools to help you experience your factory models, including:

• The ability to measure distance, area, and angles in detail
• Detailed inspection tools for cross sections and section planes
• 4D simulation that links model geometry to project times and dates for playback of installation or demolition sequences on the factory floor
• Simulation of the movement of material and machinery handling equipment

Interference Checking

Interferences are common when multiple models come together for the first time. Creating factory floor layouts can involve a combination of product, tooling, jig, fixture, machinery, equipment, layout, and facilities data-all potentially from different CAD systems. Since these components may have been created in isolation by different design teams, the probability of component interference can be relatively high.

Navisworks software for manufacturing allows you to check for interferences in the factory model, so you can detect potential issues, such as space constraints and equipment collisions, early-and save time and reduce costs. Perform clash detection on laser scan point clouds, to detect interferences between the as-built point cloud and a new digital model.
