What is Factory Design Suite?
Factory Design Suite is designed for the production environment itself: factory floors, production lines, equipment placement, and facility layout planning. Its job is to turn layout information into a coordinated 2D and 3D factory representation so teams can plan where production assets belong before physical installation or reconfiguration.
Factory workflows connect AutoCAD-based layout work with Inventor-based 3D factory context, reusable factory assets, and layout review. The emphasis stays on arranging the facility and its production equipment, giving buyers a layout-focused environment rather than a mechanical-product development workflow.
Best suited for
Best suited for factory planners, manufacturing engineers, and facility-layout teams that need to place equipment, develop production-floor layouts, coordinate 2D and 3D factory data, and review the production environment before physical changes are made.
Factory Layout Capabilities
- 2D factory layout planning: Develop floor plans and equipment arrangements around the production space.
- Synchronized 2D/3D layout workflow: Connect drawing-based layout work with a 3D representation of the factory environment.
- AutoCAD Factory and Inventor Factory workflow: Move between layout drafting and 3D factory context while keeping the focus on the production facility.
- Reusable factory assets: Place recurring equipment and factory objects from reusable asset workflows instead of rebuilding common layout elements.
- Equipment placement: Position machines, work cells, and other production assets within the facility layout.
- Layout coordination and clash review: Review factory arrangements and equipment relationships before installation using appropriate coordination workflows.
- Facility layout context: Keep floor plans, production assets, equipment positions, and surrounding factory space together in one layout-focused working context.
